Rank #4 in Best 100 Inch TV 2026: 8 Big Screens Ranked, and the Spec Sheets That Contradict Themselves
TCL 98C6K-UK 98 Inch QD-Mini LED TV with Google TV
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The TCL 98C6K-UK is the 98-inch QD-Mini LED set at number four in this guide. The listing price is £1,849.99, the rating is 4.4 out of 5, and the spec table describes a 4K panel with a 144 Hz refresh rate, Motion Clarity Pro, Dolby Vision IQ and Dolby Atmos through a 2.1 Onkyo sound system. TCL's own copy adds that the 85-inch and 98-inch models come with a special matte screen finishing, which it calls a Matte HVA Panel — on a screen this size, in a room with windows, that is the detail worth knowing.
Where the same listing stops agreeing with itself is the dimensions field. Under "Item Dimensions D x W x H" it reads 42D x 21.8W x 12.9H centimetres, in the same table that gives Screen Size as 98 Inches and Size as 98 Inch. A width of 21.8 centimetres cannot describe a 98-inch television, so at least one of those two fields is wrong. The weights give two answers as well — 73.8 kg for Item Weight against 51.8 kg for Item Weight Without Stand, a 22 kg gap. And the star breakdown runs to 100 ratings, 69 of them five-star, averaging 4.4, while the listing states 25 ratings. Everything here is taken from the Amazon listing as published; none of it is a measurement or a test of our own.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“After using for 24 hours only, I've been really impressed with the TCL 55C6K-UK QD-Mini LED. For the money, the picture quality is outstanding. The Mini LED panel produces deep blacks, bright highlights and vibrant colours that make films and TV shows look fantastic. It's genuinely hard to find another TV at this price that offers the same level of image quality.I was also pleasantly surprised by the built-in speakers. Let's be realistic – they're still speakers in a slim flat-screen TV – but they sound far better than I expected. Dialogue is clear, there's decent bass, and for everyday viewing I don't feel the need to rush out and buy a soundbar.Google TV is another big plus. It's fast, easy to use, and has all the streaming apps I need. I also love having Filmmaker Mode, which gives movies a much more natural, cinematic look without all the artificial processing.There are only a couple of minor negatives. I really wish TCL had included two USB ports instead of just one, as it's limiting if you use external storage or accessories.Also, something potential wall-mounters should be aware of: the speaker housings on the back protrude slightly. Depending on your wall bracket, you may need to use spacers so the bracket clears them. This isn't a major issue, but it does mean the TV may sit a little further away from the wall than you were expecting.Overall, these are minor complaints on what is otherwise an excellent TV. If you're looking for superb picture quality, surprisingly capable sound, and a great smart TV experience without spending a fortune, I can highly recommend the TCL 55C6K-UK.I will however update this review in 3 months, I see the other 2 reviews are from a free product giveaway but I actually agree with most of the statements, don't be put off by the brand name TCL, I've been a Samsung snob for years and now with this current purchase I'll definitely keep an open mind in future.”
