Product Manuals
A: For both 43 inch models, the feet spacing to fit on a stand is 27.3 inches. Thank you, TCL Customer Support
A: You can program this TV to power on to a specific input, and you would not need to navigate the smart features on this TV. Here are steps to accomplish this. Please go to the following: Settings>System>Power>Power On>choose which input you would like your TCL Roku TV to power on to. Also, here is a link with more information. (https://support.tclusa.com/23507-roku-tv/how-to-set-input-displayed-on-power-on) Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support
A: To be honest, it's going to be very difficult to get a high quality 4K stream with that low if an internet speed, yet I may be wrong. This TV has probably one of the best pictures in this price range of TVs. Over Thanksgiving weekend I ended up buying a total of 4 TVs. The first two were Samsung's, returned them and the next one a Vizio, returned it. I finally purchased the TCL brand and I couldn't be more happier with the picture. For the money you can never do better in picture quality. I do however have a very fast internet. 70-80 megabytes a second download. My 4K streaming from Netflix it's great. I have not played a 4K movie on the TV but 4K streaming alone is fantastic.
Q: I am having this installed tomorrow. are there cables i need to have that are not in the box? thanks
A: Depends what you're connecting the TV to. It only comes with a power cord and a/v input cord. It does not come with any HDMI, Coaxial (TV antenna), Ethernet cable, optical cable, or USB cable. If you're connecting to any device that requires any of these, then you will need these cables.
Q: I was wondering what's the main differences between the 4th Series in the 5th series
A: Both series include a built in Roku operating system, 4K UHD, and HDR Support. The 5-Series builds on this and has additional features such as Dolby Vision, wide color gamut, HDR Dynamic Contrast, etc. You can also visit www.tcl.com/products/home-theater/5-series and scroll down to "Compare All Models" to see all models compared. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support
Q: Does this TV have a tuner to watch TV? I live out in the sticks no cable service just an antenna.
A: yes, i hooked up an antenna on top of cable just for a backup
Q: Hi, will this TV operate on Basic cable without Internet?
A: Yes it wil work as far as for cable TV but you won't get the Roku and smart TV functions as you need internet for those to work,
Q: What size bolts are used to screw to a wall mount.
A: For this 43 inch TCL Roku TV, this TV uses M6 screws for mounting purposes. Thank you, TCL Customer Support
