Im a big tv nerd - Ive owned 6 OLEDs now and have basically only used OLEDs since 2016. I wanted to get something that was bright for our living room, which has a lot of natural sunlight, without spending well over $1,500.00 for one of the more powerfully lit OLEDs. Is a Samsung S95c a better TV? Absolutely - but this thing is surprisingly great at getting those deep, inky blacks you typically see in OLEDs while maintaining brightness to support a room with lots of natural light. The picture can degrade pretty significantly at an angle, so if your setup has a commonly used seat off the the side of the tv I would say you should keep looking, but this is a really great value and impressive color and contrast youd expect to see at around the $1,300 price-range. Great work from TCL!

Selected this tv based on reviews of best 65in tv's under $1000. That's risky as a better way is to go see what you like to view sports, movies, gaming, etc displayed on a tv and determine which one looks best to your eyes. With that said this tv has lived up to expectation so far. Bright, viewable from just about any angle, and the clarity is so good it made me realize that Hulu does not broadcast anything in 4K...so purchasing this TV may lead me to changing my streaming choice. YouTube for example has many trailer examples you can stream in 4k and the screen is amazing! My setup is wall mounted with soundbar underneath and surround sound wirelessly connected through the soundbar. My first time to use the ARC connection through HDMI and it works great. Everything controlled through the TV remote and even if you pick up the sound system remote to adjust volume the TV recognizes the change and will display the change on screen. So far, a great TV choice for me! Using Roku for first time after only apple tv and fire tv previously. Roku is the same if not better than fire tv as aps seem to load quicker when you add them. I have not connected apple tv to this one mainly because I am satisfied with the built in roku and use of just one remote.

The tv has great color, and good contrast. It’s a very good tv for gaming.

Great TV and extremely happy. It’s a nice upgrade from the Samsung Series 7. First, I bought the R646, but ended up exchanging for the R655. The R646 was too bulky and heavy for my liking. I was afraid to wall mount it. So, I returned the TV since I did not want to take any chances. Don’t get me wrong, the R646 was an amazing TV as well, and a good sound system. I’m an xbox series x owner and constantly playing call of duty, battlefield and knockout city. All these games make the graphics look fresh including with Dolby vision. Note: Make sure you get a 2.1 HDMI Cable. Don’t pay attention to the sound ratings on Rtratings site. The sound is still great even though for being partially hearing impaired.

I upgraded my 625 to this new model 655 primarily due to the micro LED lighting system. I can say that I've been extremely happy with TCL overall. After doing extensive reading I started out with a 55-in 6 series and within a year purchased the 625. Every time I've upgraded I've been completely satisfied. It should be noted that I am a fan of the Roku system and have been using it long before TCL had it built into their TVs. I've worked in audio video for years and have a very good idea of how to properly adjust the television for those who don't there are some excellent YouTube videos on where the setting should be set on this television for the absolute best picture. I really have no comments on the sound quality due to the fact that the whole thing is running through a DolbyAtmos system. The one upgrade I made was I replaced the stand. I needed a little more room under the television then the provided stand wood give me. The final decision to do the upgrade was when I found out that the six series was going to be dropped from the TCL line. I have not seen the new sets yet but the best TV under $1,000 category I'm afraid is going to be going away. I'm extremely happy with my purchase and would recommend the TCL6 series to anyone considering a new television set at this time under that $1,000 budget point.
