Q: What is the difference between the tcl-50-class-led-5-series-2160p-smart-4k-uhd-tv-with-hdr-roku-tv/6358908.p?skuId=6358908 and the: $279.99 Save $20Was $299.99 TCL - 50" Class - LED - 4 Series - 2160p - Smart - 4K UHD TV with HDR - Roku TV

A: The 50S525 is a member of our new 5-Series while the 50S425 is a member of our 4-Series. Both series include a built in Roku operating system, 4K UHD, and HDR Support. The 5-Series builds on this and has additional features such as Dolby Vision, wide color gamut, HDR Dynamic Contrast, an edge-to-edge glass display, etc. You can also visit www.tclusa.com/products/home-theater/5-series and scroll down to "Compare All Models" to see all models compared. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support

Q: What are the 4 different colored buttons for on the remote? It doesn't specify in the user manual. Thanks.

A: The buttons located on the lower portion of the TCL Roku Remote are our partner buttons. They are designated at a factory level with some variation, and cannot be reprogrammed. They are intended to be shortcut buttons to select streaming channels. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support

Q: Ok, yes we get it , 40" stand width. But you still won't answer if the stand legs can be inverted inwards, and of course, we would be doing this completely against your recommendation. Completely on our own, and without any liability on your end.

A: For this 50 inch TCL Roku TV, the feet spacing to fit on a stand is 40.0 inches. The feet cannot be inverted. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support

Q: I only see (3) holes in the back for the mounting bracket ?

A: There are a total of 4 mounting holes. 2 of them have screws in them, and should be removed. We recommend using the appropriate M6 screws that come in the mounting bracket screw kit. This TCL Roku TV uses a 300mm x 200mm VESA mounting pattern. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support

Q: ok, i was born at the end of the babyboomer gen. but i don,t understand why you keep saying that the tv is not bluetooth capable.when i asked if my original (cube style) roku speakers would pair reply was yes,aren,t they bluetooth ?

A: Hard to explain but the tv works wirelessly with certain compatible devices and is technically not Bluetooth. Does not work with Apple screen share or wirelessly connect with Apple products. It does work with Microsoft and Android phones and tablets as well as your aforementioned Roku speakers.

Q: Is this tv bluetooth enabled?

A: Currently, our TVs do not support Bluetooth. If you are trying to connect a sound bar or speakers you can use the Optical port, or the HDMI ARC port. For Headphones, there is a Headphone jack on the back of the TV, or you can download the Free Roku app for private listening. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support

Q: Does tv have hdmi-arc output?

A: Yes. HDMI 4 (or 3 on the 43") as seen in the User Guide.
