Pros

  • Media room just finished up and got the 85” QM8K finally hung. Im super impressed with the picture and the blacks.
  • 85” QM8K is in stock at BB
  • If it were my money, id do the 85" qm8k
  • I just got the 85 qm8k. My couch is around 10.5ft from the tv and i think the 98 would have been too big. Everyone has different preferences. I used tape to get an idea of the size but the actually tv just feels even bigger. Side n...
  • I bought the 85” Qm8k on sale for $1000 off then it went “on sale” for Black Friday $500 off. So I paid $500 less than their Black Friday sale price.

Cons

  • I have an 85" QM8K. I attached a Samsung Q999F Soundbar system via eArc (HDMI in the appropriate eArc HMDI slots). The soundbar is working fine, but now i've lost all TV speakers.
  • Trying to decide between the 85” QM8K or 98” QM7K.
  • Brand new 85 QM8K does this on YouTube, wut... it kind of « flickering » or « flashes » (I’m bad with technical terms).

I just got the 85 qm8k. My couch is around 10.5ft from the tv and i think the 98 would have been too big. Everyone has different preferences. I used tape to get an idea of the size but the actually tv just feels even bigger. Side note 85" st 10.5 is great for mixed usage.

Yes, it’s the Best Buy (no pun intended) out there at the moment. And for $100 more over the QM7K it’s a no brainer IMO.

Besides the fact that it can singe your eyelashes off, that's probably about as close as you can get to an OLED as far as deep blacks, specular highlights and blooming go.
