TCL's QM8 flips the script: HDMI 1 and 2 are the gaming ports at full HDMI 2.1 (48Gbps, 4K@144Hz, up to 240Hz interpolated), while HDMI 3 and 4 drop to 2.0b. That means you'll plug your console into a front port, not the back. eARC lives on HDMI 4 intentionally—TCL protected both gaming inputs. Game Accelerator 240 with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro delivers smooth high-frame-rate content. Here's every port and the cables you'll need.
65-inch premium Mini LED QLED 4K TV with up to 2,300 local dimming zones, 2,000 nits peak brightness, Game Accelerator 240 for up to 240Hz VRR gaming, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and Google TV platform.
