What I have come to expect from TCL
This TV is excellent. First download the IPQ app (check phone requirements) to calibrate colors, it does make a difference and it works for the 2020 5 series, 2018-present 6 series, and the right series tv. It only works with certain phones because the phone camera has to be certified and be good enough to accomplish. With that said this tv was good out if the box, for the money or regardless. The colors pop and the brightness is impressive. Not as good as the 6 or 8 series of course, but still great. The tv handles motion reasonably well. I have been watching college football, indycar and no problems so far. The tv does have some black crush, which is expected in this price rang. The Roku operating system is awesome, Spectrum app prevents needing a box or cables (tv and power cable only (wireless internet for stream). As for the concerns with quality, we have purchased 6+ TCLs over the last 5 or 6 years. All still work and have impressive pictures, we have been giving the older ones to family members as we upgrade. The thing I love about this company is the keep coming out with better products and with the new 6 and 8 series mini led are starting to innovate in the industry. Due to the limit of size the photos dont do the tv justice. Super happy with the purchase.

Great price
Great tv for the price. I got mine open box so even better! The quality is very nice, metal legs and frame around the tv. Easy interface and controls and you can even use your mobile device as a controller. Dolby vision, HDR, 4K and all. The only other tv I had was an LG many many years ago and it would always lag and can’t get much apps. Nicest TV I’ve owned, but the only downside is it doesn’t have the best viewing angles, too far to the side or too high/low the colors are washed out. Apple airplay so I can put anything from my apple devices on the screen. I never used the internal speakers so I can’t comment on that. The screen is a glossy style so it does get dirty easier and catches more reflections. Pros: -4 HDMI ports (1 eARC) -digital, toslink output -nice quality -easy to wall mount Cons: -short power cable -viewing angles -occasionally slow load times

Best Gaming & 4K TV for the $$$$
Replaced a 40" original tcl the had just 1080p. Predominately used for gaming and netflix. Once I hard-wired ps4 pro and the new 50" tcl to internet, matched all my 4k, dolby audio, ipq calibration (ummm, guys this can only be done on a google pixel phone, it says so, duh), have to say the picture and sound blows me away compared to what i had. No lag noticed anymore when playing, super sharp picture, great contrast. This was recommended by RTINGS.com as one of the better gaming tv's for the price...compared to tv's costing 3-4x as much!! On top of that, best buy is my go to for major entertainment purchases and they did not let me down. Matched another competitors price and had it here in less than a week. Thanks for making me a happy customer BB and TCL.
