    Good deal for the money

    The picture's great. Google TV as the OS is a big plus, you know? It's got tons of channels on its TLC Plus thing, like Pluto or Samsung TV Plus. This TV has a bunch of picture and sound settings. Oh, and the interface is super easy to use. The only downside is that the colors get weird if you watch it from a weird angle, but who does that, right? You can add it to Google Home and control it from there. It's perfect for the price.

    Great Quality TV

    I love this TV & how clear it is. Great size & quality. The remote frustrates me because it’s so long and narrow but I have gotten use to it. I use to have. Vizio & it was not smart and I had it for over 14years. Man could I see the difference! I have used Roku’s in past and I hate Roku TV’s. TCL is the way to go for me now.

    Amazing Value for a 4K Smart TV

    I bought the TCL 55” S5-Series 4K UHD HDR Google TV (2024) in February, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. For the price, this TV delivers exceptional picture quality, smooth performance, and a user-friendly smart TV experience. - Picture Quality: The 4K resolution with HDR makes everything pop—whether I’m watching movies, playing games, or streaming shows. The colors are vibrant, and the contrast is surprisingly good for this price range. - Google TV Interface: The built-in Google TV is a game changer. Navigating apps is fast and seamless, and having Google Assistant makes it super convenient to search for content without typing. - Gaming Performance: I was impressed with the low input lag and smooth motion handling. It’s not an OLED, but for casual gaming, it holds up really well! - Build & Sound: The design is sleek and modern, and the built-in speakers are decent for everyday use. That said, pairing it with a soundbar takes the experience to the next level. For a budget-friendly 4K TV, this TCL S5-Series is a fantastic choice. It punches way above its price point, and I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality TV without breaking the bank!

    Great buy, great value

    Big, beautiful, crisp color, quickly responding TV that was easy to mount and very affordable. It has specific modes for different things like movies or video games and is smart enough to know when to switch. The sound is very loud, not the highest quality but exactly what I would expect for the price. I’ll just connect my Bluetooth speakers to it. I Love this TV

    Honestly, it's an amazing television. Easy to use easy to set up literally self-explanatory. I like the numerous inputs on it. The ease of adding the apps that I enjoy. The screen is amazing. The settings you can adjust to your liking. Along with the sound, the size is perfect. I have the 55 inch Google television and I will add, I love the remote. You can actually hold the voice google button and what app you would like to watch. The overall quality size sound the exceptional picture on it. Is a win-win for me? I would definitely recommend this television. I recommend this television. Yes, I would recommend this television.
