Excellent TV - I own a 4,5 and 6 series TCL
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.The TCL 5 series is an excellent TV. It's 4K, HDR, and has Dolby Vision and has ROKU built in. What more could you ask for at this price point? The picture quality is terrific, the ROKU OS is the simplest and best OS on TV's today. Roku allows you to download any app you want while other major TV Mfg's sometimes don't allow you specific apps on their TV's. I also own a 4 series and 6 series now. The 4 series is ok but the 5 is better and depending on when the sales are on I would grab a 5 series over 4 if possible. Now the 6 series blows them both away but depending on where you intend to use the TV you can save the cash and buy a 4 or 5 series, they are both really nice. The noticeable difference to me in the 5 series over the 4 series is the brightness of the TV, the contrast is very good, the blacks are better as well, very low input lag (gaming) and the aesthetics of the TV are nicer on the 5. The 5 is a metal finish while the 4 series is a nice black plastic trim around the screen. My son uses the 5 series to play his Xbox games and to watch TV & Movies. Buy it, you won't regret it.

Excellent, especially for the price
|Posted .55” model is outstanding for the price. I bought this model after extensive research for four main reasons: Pros: 1. Color accuracy out-of-the-box and even better after little calibration. It requires very little adjustment and even if one made no adjustments, most would still be happy with the picture. It also has a wide color gamut. 2. Support for all major 4K digital formats. Most TV’s in this price range only have HDR and not Dolby Vision. This set has both (and HLG). 3. It removes motion judder from all 24p sources. This improves motion handling whether watching 4K movies or even Movies over Cable sources. 4. Excellent upscaling of HD, 1080i, and 720p sources, especially those from over-the-air or a Cale box. Cons: 1. A little bit of dirty screen effect although I only notice it when running test patterns on YouTube. 2. 60hz panel although that’s expected at this price as no TV under $500 has a native 120hz panel. 3. Doesn’t get bright enough with HDR sources. If you got the cash for the TCL 6 series, go for that. Otherwise, get this over other sets in this price range including its closer competitor the Hisense H8F which has serious reliability issues being reported.

Excellent buy
|Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.I researched the TCL 55" series 5 before buying against LG and Samsung. TLC won. I watched their video and another comparison. Glad I bought at best buy instead of Amazon, same price. Amazon reviewers were complaining of recieving damaged goods. Broken screens.

Replaces a plasma
|Posted .The colors are very good. The blacks are there and the brightness is strong. Roku takes a little getting used to. It doesn’t turn on to your previous station. Must always select app. Not easy. The REMOTE, standard infrared is useless. The location of the sensors on the tv itself are unknown. Almost returned the the unit because of this. Had the other Roku WiFi unit Remote purchased for another tv, took it out, paired it, and wham, the thing works perfectly. I’m keeping it and maybe I’ll soon forget the infrared remote.....

It’s not 120hz Q LED
|Posted .Owned for 9 months when reviewed.HDR is consistent much better than previous TV. 3 hdmi 2.0 ports and an HDMI Arc Port. Different tv picture/audio settings can be saved between inputs. Many Roku channels to choose from. USB port on TV. I have owned this tv almost a year and it still holds up pretty well. 4K 60 is beautiful. No color bleed or dead pixels. Worth it!

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionWhat is the distance between the two legs of the stand?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer For this 55 inch TCL Roku TV, the feet spacing to fit on a stand is 43.9 inches. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support
Answered by TCLExpert
Q: QuestionAs per answers from this question section why is the 55" actually 48.4" when it's supposed to be close to 55" not far behind a whole 5"? But in the specifications it says "screen size 55!" This is what's stopping me from purchasing this tv.
Asked by Manda30.
- A:Answer So the thing is... TVs are measured bottom left corner to top right corner, or diagonally, across the screen. Soo... Remember Geometry class in high school. A^2 + B^2 = C^2 Well you have to use that to figure it out. The TV is 28.1" by 48.4". So 28.1^2 is 789.61 and 48.4^2 is 2342.56. Added together that is 3132.17. Now you take the square root of that and you have 55.967 inches. So you are actually getting a 55.967 inch TV for the price of a 55 inch, almost a full inch bigger for FREE.

Q: QuestionI am looking to buy this tv but before I order it I am curious if I need to buy any other cables to hook it up. I don't have a cable box that it needs to connect to. I just don't want to order a tv and realize I don't have everything I need! Thank you!
Asked by Elizabeth.
- A:Answer Generally TVs do not come with any cables besides the power cable to hook into the wall. The cable(s) you would need just depends on your source. A Blu-ray Player you would need to buy and HDMI Cable. Any will do, no need to buy the expensive ones. If you have a standard DVD player then the analog (yellow, red, & white) cable. This TV comes with a little adapter to hookup the analog cords if needed. But lastly this TV is a smart TV utilizing Roku’s software which runs great. You would just need Wi-Fi to connect the tv to like your laptop or phone. Then you can stream tv like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, Apple TV, etc. Hope this helps!

Q: QuestionDoes this TV support Chroma 444 at 4K?
Asked by bully.
- A:Answer TCL 4K TVs do feature all ports with HDMI 2.0, so they are capable of supporting Chroma 4:4:4. But the performance will depend on: 1. Set the HDMI mode to HDMI 2.0 under the TV’s “TV input” menu setting; 2. Make sure that a good quality high-speed HDMI cable is used; 3. Make sure that the source device is capable of supporting 4K output with 4:4:4 chroma; 4. Supported resolutions and frame rates with 10-bit 4:4:4 chroma include: 1080p/60Hz and 2160p/30Hz. With 8-bit 4:4:4 chroma: up to 2160p/60Hz; 5. To ensure best compatibility with various PC graphic cards and 4:4:4 output, select “computer” as the name of HDMI input in the Settings / TV Inputs menu. Thank you, TCL Customer Support
