Great tv at a great price … but !
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great tv at a great price. But the YouTube app buffers for 10 seconds when I try to rewind or fast forward, then it returns to the part of the video before I hit rewind. I’ve reached out to Roku and Google to let the know the rewind is broken 90% of the time. Yet it still hasn’t been fixed. Roku says Google is responsible for the app and Google says it rokus tv. Very frustrating. All the others apps work fine.

TCL 43" 4K Roku Smart TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The 43" was the perfect size for where I wanted to put it. It's easy to add apps to streaming services via the ROKU apps, it even has some streaming live TV available out of the box. Works great w/ my Switch, has a good number of inputs/outputs, and the image quality across streaming, games, etc. has been very good. Originally picked this model because I'd been told that all TCL ROKU smart tvs had a remote w/ a 3.5mm audio output, though this one does not. The ROKU app does allow for "private listening" through the app though, or I just grabbed a BT output device that runs through the optical output and I can just use wireless headphones for audio. Still a great TV for the price though.

Excellent Value

VERY PLEASED.......
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the 43" 4k Roku TV. Really liking it so far. Great picture, especially when I hit VIVID on the color adjustment. My only complaint...THE REMOTE. But it's not a huge deal. When I grab the remote to maneuver through it, my finger is placed right on the "mute" button on the side. I have been handling remotes this way for decades. Now, I have to hold the remote in a completely different way. Not a huge deal, but I question the design of the remote with the volume up & down and mute on the side. Still a great purchase.

Roku
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy set up and with the antenna we can get the local stations. 43" is the perfect size for us to have on a stand and not have to hang it on the wall. The color and picture are nice and clear.

Better quality for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love TCL Roku TVs! I now have 3 of these in different rooms of my house. They just seem to offer the best value for the quality. The picture quality is great for watching movies and tv, and the sound is surprisingly good, too! You'll still want a sound bar if you want/need crisper dialogue, but this works well enough for my wife and I in our bedroom. I did add a sound bar to my family room TV, and that made a noticeable improvement. I don't do any gaming, so I can't comment on any of those pieces. The simplicity of the Roku interface is another big plus of these TVs. Get logged in (you do not need to pay for anything other than the subscription streaming services you use), and you're good to go!

Posted .Hi ChristopherS,
Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. Our TVs are compatible with most Universal and cable remotes. Many Universal and cable box remotes can be programmed to control select functions on the TV. You can visit https://support.tcl.com/us-remote-codes for more information. If you do not see your specific remote, you would need to contact the remote's manufacturer to obtain the remote code from them. Hope this helps!
Thank you,
Sara
