I Like My TCL -55
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tv is great right out of the box. The picture is great and connection speeds are as well. This is a great tv for anyone that would like a good tv in their living room.
I would recommend this to a friend A good idea poorly executed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are a Roku fan, this type of TV sounds like just the right thing. The TCL is not. I have had mine for a while now and have to give it a 1-star review. The main reason for the poor review is the HDR features and the Dolby features. HDR, HDR10 and HDR10+ are supposed to give you this ultra life-like picture with great detail and depth. On this TV it couldn't be farther from the truth! The worst part, on TCL TVs you cannot bypass the HDR features. They make EVERYTHING you watch washed-out and smokey ... sometimes to the point as to make it unwatchable. The solution, I bought a Roku Ultra box, attached it via HDMI, told it to not use any HDR features (just 4K) and the picture is now brilliant. A very beautiful picture. But why buy a stand alone Roku box when you have a Roku TV??!! Hmmmm. Now, as for the sound: if you have a sound bar that has built-in sound processing, be sure to set the TV's (or Roku box's) sound processing to RAW. Bypass all the dolby-related settings. I found if I didn't the sound was very mediocre. I use a Samsung sound bar (with sub-woofer and rear speakers). With audio set to RAW, the sound is fantastic. Not set to RAW, the sound is washed out and flat ... the volume has to be turned up to max on the soundbar to hear it properly. You might not experience these problems, but I sure did. I would not recommend a TCL Roku TV NOR the Roku-branded TVs for the reason above. Get a nice LG and add the Roku Ultra.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendExcellent Value
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think in early 2023, and very likely still today in mid 2023, this is the best value you are going to get on a QLED screen. The reviews I saw said the roku had some screen advantages over the google version, but they are minor enough that if you prefer google I don't think its going to ruin it for the average viewer. (I don't know why they put sound in the break down. They are working vibrating the flat screens as a speaker, but these tvs just do not have the depth to put anything like decent speakers in them. Do not use the speakers on your tvs folks, 1999 is gone for good.)
