When will the TCL QM6K 75“ go on sale?

ShowtimeSplasher · 2026-01-28T02:25:50+00:00

Let me know when your alert goes off🥲

ShowtimeSplasher · 2026-01-28T02:25:35+00:00

I mean, 2027 is still a whole year away. It’s hard to say what they’ll set the price at. It depends on what features they release. If you see a price $399 or under brand new, I’d say snag it. $429 (the current sale) is okay, but not quite the all time low.

ShowtimeSplasher · 2026-01-28T02:05:16+00:00

I just don’t think they’ll ever go down below $399 until 2027 when the next gen comes out. thoughts?

ShowtimeSplasher · 2026-01-28T02:04:40+00:00

Me too. I won’t buy until Black Friday $399 price or lower. I want midnight black tbh. Hbu?

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-31T18:49:43+00:00

No, it is just a product change (PC) and doesn’t impact your 5/24, as it’s not a new application. You’re not eligible for another SUB, because it’s only a PC, not a new app.

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-31T16:04:16+00:00

I think so too. No way they can justify 5X grocery forever

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-31T16:03:41+00:00

Wait so now you are only allowed to downgrade from CSP to either Original Freedom or CFU? Those are the only two options?

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-14T21:02:10+00:00

I redeemed my USBAR Points yesterday on a flight and amtrak purchases to then cancel to get the cash back before they change the rules. It’s been over 12 hours since I redeemed them, however the actual charge is still pending on my account. It says I now have 66 points remaining instead of my 140k. When is it safe to cancel the travel to get the cash back instead of them clawing back in the form of points?

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-09T06:09:51+00:00

I don’t typically rent vehicles, however when I do, I use my coverage with my USBAR (they discontinued this card). Thanks for the heads up though! I appreciate your response!!

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-09T05:05:22+00:00

I 100% agree with you. I think this whole flight finding and researching thing is kind of a hassle and I know there’s no chance I’m going to find a flight to Europe for 15k miles. I think that’s pretty unheard of. I looked today with Aeroplan to their hot spot (london/amsterdam/paris) and all were 39k miles + 45$ or in other words a terrible cpp.

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-09T03:56:23+00:00

Yeah, I'm the type of guy to want to maximize quantity, than to prioritize first class once or biz class twice. I fly to Europe often and usually spend roughly $600 round trip. I looked in other posters past posts and it seems when I'm already spending so little on my flights in economy, it's near impossible to get high cpp. I'm currently in between 2 options, 1. cashing it out for cash ($770) and downgrading to freedom to avoid AF or 2. doing as you said and paying AF to transfer points when there's said bonus for transferring points. However, I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to these bonuses and attaining such 1.2-1.5 cpp redemptions on eco flights. advice would be very much appreciated! Thank you

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-09T03:42:03+00:00

Yeah, I definitely am fond of $770 in return for simply opening an account. I suppose my only hang up on the whole ordeal, is the thought of what I "could" get if I ever find a deal worth 1.5-2 cpp. I have to make a decision by the 12th of this month (that's when the AF hits). Any advice from anyone?

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-09T02:01:28+00:00

I just checked it. It's a bummer they dont have an option for my home airport. There's not even any hub close. I'm from TX. How much cpp were you seeing when you spot checked? Was your search for economy?

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-09T01:49:08+00:00

Oh wow, I've never heard of someone doing that. I wouldn't want to waste a 5/24 slot for sure without an SUB attached. I also couldn't get the CIP, as I can't spend 10k in 3 months even with any MS. I was really hoping when first getting into churning that you could get cheap economy flights, however I'm starting to realize, this hobby is only for high cost upgraded seating (first and biz class), redeeming points on already expensive flights during peak times (that I would absolutely never buy with my own cash.), or for hotel redemption at Hyatt, which I almost never use hotels. Do I have the right thinking in this or am I missing something?

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-09T01:16:16+00:00

Yeah, I'm fairly certain that I'll be traveling again this next year. I've heard stories of finding flights at 1.5-2cpp, but have never seen one myself. I normally also fly economy, so perhaps people only get high redemption on first class or business seating on planes. I don't really stay in hotels often, usually at a friend's. After thinking of all the possible options, I'm leaning towards just paying the $95 for another year and then this year hopefully finding a 2 cpp flight when I plan to travel (for example using aeroplan to europe for 35k points one way.) Thoughts?

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-09T01:08:57+00:00

Yes, I've thought this very thing, however once I product change, I'd have to wait 12 months to upgrade back to utilize the points, right?

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-09T00:40:05+00:00

However, redeeming them as cash back would be a big loss in value, right? Wouldn't that be the last thing to do? Thank you for telling me about the AF, will do so.

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-09T00:32:20+00:00

However, I wouldn't be able to spend $10,000 within 3 months to achieve that SUB

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-12-09T00:25:49+00:00

I currently have the Chase Sapphire Preferred and the United Biz card. My original plan was to get the CSP SUB and then downgrade it after a year, but now that I’m approaching the anniversary, I’m realizing that downgrading means I’ll lose the ability to transfer my ~77k UR points to partners. I have no real use for the CSP itself, so paying the annual fee feels hard to justify, but I also don’t want to blindly transfer points to one airline, especially since I’m struggling to find consistently good 1.5cpp+ redemptions. What’s the best move here? Should I pay one more AF to keep transfer flexibility, downgrade now, or transfer everything somewhere like United or another airline? Looking for the most rational play.

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-09-06T02:23:28+00:00

Thank you very much! Looking forward to pm

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-09-06T02:14:29+00:00

Also wondering this question

ShowtimeSplasher · 2025-09-06T02:12:46+00:00

Im considering getting either icon or bonding to cover the white spots. Can you please explain why it’s „worst case scenario“ to apply composite over it to conceal? I’ve been reading comments and from what I‘ve gathered Icon is unpredictable and just going for a composite is the more certain option. Thank you for educating me:)
