TCL Q65 (2024, 85 and 98 inch)

QLED · Google TV · 85, 98″

Built-in far-field microphone

Has mic

This model has a built-in far-field microphone, which is the hardware hands-free voice control uses.

TCL's quick start guides for the 85Q651G and 98Q651G show a "Hands-free voice control mic switch" on the TV ("Toggle switch to enable or disable the TV's integrated microphone") and a status light that glows when hands-free voice control is active. They say to say "OK Google" or "Hey Google" and speak towards the TV, and that a Screenless Service setting allows hands-free voice control in standby.

Apps only modeRelated setting

Hides personalised recommendations. Google says sponsored content and teasers for popular movies and shows still appear, and Search, the Assistant and your Watchlist are turned off.

Google: "You can't turn off ads, but you can control the use of your advertising ID for personalized ads across installed apps."

These settings cover ads in the TV's own menus, not ads inside individual apps. Menus can change with software updates, so check again after your TV updates.
