Won’t look elsewhere
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This tv has held up tremendously since I bought it 1 year and a half ago. The color, on point. The brightness, blinding when need be and dark enough when the time calls for it. Recommending this always.

Satisfied
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This has great picture quality and brightness. Sound is decent but will be buying a soundbar to go with it. Not sure how this would compare with the next model down but the price was good enough for me.

TCL 55" Class 6 Series Mini-LED QLED 4K UHD smart
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've only had it for a few weeks. The picture is great. The setup was easy. I had a ROKU before so it has taken a while to get used to and learn the Google processes. Over all for the price,$399 for a 55", it is a very good TV.

Great Tv besides remote and execution of inputs
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The picture is great for most movies and games. I do notice some blooming and the backlight flashing between the borders of the screen in some content though. The Google operating system isn't the best but I was able to get my TV to stop having so many problems with it. What I did was went to settings; apps; special app access; energy optimization, and turned off the energy optimization for all streaming services and some others. Haven't had a problem since!

TCL 6 Series is a serious jump in quality
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TCL TVs in general are great values, and it's definately worth going to the 6 series if you can swing it The colors and particularly the depth of the picture is top notch Bonus was the sound when connected to stereo system jumped up dramatically from the former 4 series that was replaced

Beautiful TV / Terrible software
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The TV picture itself looks fantastic, the Google Operating System is total garbage. The settings don't save, they keep reverting back to defaults, the aspect ratio changes mid show to fill the screen vs keeping the correct aspect which results in a stretched screen, apps force quit all time (read middle of a viewing experience it just goes back to the home screen), and sometimes the TV just totally bugs out (as pictured). It's a beautiful TV & picture hamstrung by terrible software. I'll be returning this back to BestBuy and getting the R635 instead, plus, with the Roku OS, you can pause livetv, google doesn't seem to care about livetv as that feature is missing, and the channel guide barely works.

Perfect gaming tv

For a budget tv it’s amazing for tv and supports hdmi 2.1. It also supports Dolby Vision/Atmos for movies, it also has HDR and HDR10 for gaming. It also supports VRR for PS5 and Xbox Series X.

Fantastic tv for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You’d be hard pressed to find another qled, 120hz refresh rate tv at this price point. Ps5 looks fantastic and I’m happy with the refresh rate to have a little future proofing. Best Buy delivery was easy to set up.

Great TV!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great TV for s great price! It's bright, color accurate with some tweaking out of the box, and has Google TV which is great! It is much heavier than the newer Q series TVs so make sure you have a good wall mount.

great tv for the money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I walked into best buy to get a cheaper tv. After looking at the picture I knew spending another 100 bucks to get this tv will be worth it. The smart tv works great and looks great .No problems setting it up.

Worth the sale price!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great budget 120hz TV. I’m an occasional gamer with my PS5 and was amazed at how it picked up the refresh rate. If you need help with calibration Reddit is the place to go to get the max out of this unit.

Almost great
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this after 55R635 blew its power board. Slightly better picture quality, with the ability to do more granular controls. However the implementation of Google TV is still kind of a hot mess. CEC controls are not really functional unless you like the tv telling an av receiver to continually cycle thru inputs every time you go to the settings menu. Annoying, but livable once you disable the CEC. Overall though it’s a good tv for the money and hopefully they get the software worked out in a future update.
