    Very pleased with this TV. For a non-tech savvy person, it was very difficult to set up. but now that it's working, I'm enjoying it. I would like less treble and stronger bass tuning. But perhaps this is standard.

    We had an older 720p 40" TV in our RV. This TV blows out the old one on detail and vividness. It's hard to get UHD in the 40" these days and this is about as good as you are going to get, especially at this price point!

    TV is fine, installation on wall was terrific, however I had no idea I could not use airplay to cast my MAC screen onto the monitor. Tried to 'take it back' but was told I had to pay for the installation! I was a super loyal customer at Best Buy. I am more than discouraged!! I will not continue to spend the amount of money I have spent there is the past. I am not satisfied and feel badly treated!!

    Really good tv for the price. Being a google tv, set up was simple, but required going through multiple permissions. My only real complaint with the UI is that if you pause a show for more than a minute, it kicks you back out to home. And the sound quality is pretty bland.

    Needed a relatively small TV for a guest bedroom to sit on top of a dresser. This model's stand width worked, it's sale price fit the budget and the function was identical to our other larger TCL TVs making the set up and use a snap.

    The worst TCL i ever had

    The first one i got only had half a screen working. The second one would not stay connected online. When i finally did get it updated and ready to tinker with it, I kept getting dropped online connection. Went to gaming and this thing has the worst motion smearing I have ever seen. The TV itself is maybe 2-250 nits if that. Its very dim. I expected better from TCL. Stay clear of this model.

    On sale. Current TV is dying. Needed basic TV. Had to buy new HDMI cable (old one didn't work). Still have to use both TV remote & Spectrum remote. Picture could be sharper.

    So many things about this TV have been a big hassle, set up has been ridiculously counter-intuitive. It drops Wi-Fi so often which I've never had a problem in my home. Unfortunately, I came on the Best Buy website one day too late, after the return cut off, to begin the return process. So I'm stuck with this.
