Worth it
|Posted .With all the negative reviews I swear I thought this tv was going to be a bust but it most definitely wasn’t. The picture quality is amazing and for $200 it most definitely is worth it. You get all streaming apps including hbo max which most smart TVs do not have. This 55 inch looks exactly the same as my $800 LG that’s in the living room so trust me if you need a cheap, nice quality tv for your bedroom this here is the best bang for your buck. Also it has chrome cast which lets you mirror things from your phone to your tv!

Such a fan of this tv!
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.We recently moved and naturally the one thing we lost in the move was our big family room tv. I popped into Best Buy and this was right up front, the right size, and definitely the right price! This is our only smart android device so setting it up took just a bit of learning but I’m definitely open to more google based products because we’ve had such a good experience with how user friendly this tv is!

Ok tv for the price but smart tv is slow
|Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.For the money this is a ok tv. But that’s about it. If you just need a tv, this will do fine. I have this in my dog house (bed room the wife kicks me to) and I use it with a Apple TV and a ps4 for COD. The smart tv features in this Tv are very very slow. However it does run everything just takes time. I’d go for the roku version over the android. Only issues I have are 1. Weird red ghosting on some images. 2. Takes a while to frame sync (see photos) I’m not going to buy this again. Will jump to a 5 series or a 6/7000 Samsung

TCL Black Friday Deal
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Did you know that since 2015, TCL is the third-largest television manufacturer by market share. I picked up this android 4K television a week before Black Friday for $200. I couldn’t be more pleased with its brightness, contrast, and volume loudness. I’m a fan of TCL after this purchase. Similar televisions would run over $300 but this deal is well worth it.

TCL Android TV
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I love the Geek Squad for their very professional service. The install process, the demonstration of the how to's and do not's met my needs. The Android TV is very compatible to my needs. I have a Google Pixel phone and the TV and other devices compliment one another. The quality, size and visual is what I was looking for.

Good quality light weight android TV
|Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.Love this android TV so far. Some reviewers have complained about Disney+ not working. I had a similar issue at the beginning, but after recent OS and Application upgrades, now I can watch Disney + also. It is very light, which made it easy to hang it to my wall panel.

Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between android tv and non android tv
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Android TV is a Google operating system for televisions. In purchasing an Android TV-based device (like this), you do not lose any of the functionality that you'd expect from a normal (non-smart) TV. On the contrary, this TV has everything you'd hope for AND a smart user interface that allows you to easily pair streaming services (I.e. Netflix, Prime) and control the TV via your smart phone. I was concerned that my Apple devices would be incompatible with Android TV, but was pleasantly surprised to find it perfectly compatible.

Q: QuestionWhat version are the HDMI ports? (Are they HDMI 2.0?)
Asked by PC21.
- A:Answer This TCL Android TV features HDMI 2.0 ports. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support
Answered by TCLExpert
Q: QuestionAre you able browse the internet on this? Are you able to use Google Chrome?
Asked by Dsk.
- A:Answer It’s basically an Android phone, so you may be able to download a web browser. I say “may”, because it is based on what the manufacturer allows in the Google Play store for Android TV. There are many ways around this (download Aptoid TV which is a separate, legit, app store, where you should find Chrome or Puffin Browser in there), or sideload the app (this is a separate topic entirely, but you can check out Youtube for help with that).
