Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the 50" Class S4 S-Class 4K UHD HDR LED Smart TV with Google TV (2023) for its excellent picture quality, ease of use, and reasonable price. Many also highlight the vibrant colors and lightweight design, making it easy to set up and move. However, some users find the remote control difficult to navigate, particularly in low-light conditions, and experience occasional delays in response time. Overall, the positive feedback on picture quality and ease of use outweighs the concerns about the remote and response time.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    good price but would not purchase again. do not find it easy to navigate and the controller is too sensitive to touch and does not offer enough keys to get you where you need to be.

    This TV has been a great addition to the home. I use this TV by the spa and it’s connected to a rolling stand that lives in the garage. When I want to watch outside while in the spa, I roll outside. So simple to set up with all the apps. Great picture quality as well. Can’t go wrong with this TCL 50”.

    Great picture for the price but very slow system. Especially after startup, slow to open apps and had trouble processing high-resolution video. I bought a separate Fire Stick and it works great.

    Needed a new TV at a good price, and TCL came to my rescue! Easy to program, installed easily with the Best Buy Essentials TV mount, and the picture clarity is perfect. Would definitely recommend to those on a budget!

    It served its purpose although I learned a lesson… there’s a time and a place to be cheap. Electronics is not one of those times or places. Buy quality products if you want to keep it for longer than a year. If I would’ve spent the extra money on a good quality TV the first time around, I wouldn’t be buying another TV less than a year later.

    Good display, slow interface, some funky software processing that sometimes locks up the TV, and you have to unplug to reboot. But then, I paid a couple hundred bucks for a 50" 4K TV, so.....

    Have had this TV for a few weeks now. Overall quite satisfied. The one downside for me is that I was unaware that Google TV does not support the Spectrum app. My work around was to use my Roku device. Also, it does take a few seconds to load apps.

    Great tv for the price. I needed audio plug for corded headphones. My only complaint is when the headphones are plugged in it cancels the sound from the tv to other viewers. I must unplug my headphones for others to hear.

    Purchased this Tv after reading some good reviews. The tv itself has a sleek design and the sound/picture was very good for the price i bought it for. Sadly i had to return it after noticing the tv was slow browsing through the menus and when i would turn it on it would tale 5 minutes to show a display on the screen.
