Only criticism is every time you turn it on, you have to select the specific port/cable/box you want to use. It should just turn onto HDMI one if that’s the main input, just annoying that you have to take extra steps just to watch TV..other than that is of excellent quality.

Bought this to replace an older flatscreen TV that finally went dark on me. I have no complaints considering the price. The sound, picture quality, ease-of-setup, digital antenna, and all other advertised features are above my expectations.I bought the 50″ and my screen is 50.” Some other reviews are claiming that the screen is smaller than advertised, but I did not find that to be the case.Also, some other reviews have complained that you have to have a Roku account in order to use this Roku TV. I’m not really sure where those complaints are coming from. It seems pretty obvious – You’re buying a Roku TV… You have to have a Roku account. Did you really expect you wouldn’t have to have some sort of an account? If you don’t want to have to create a Roku account, don’t purchase a Roku TV. It’s like buying an Amazon Fire Stick and then getting mad that you have to create an Amazon account to use it. Some of these reviewers could be a little more rational/realistic/reasonable if you ask me.Bottom line – I found most of the negative reviews to be inaccurate or irrational. If you want a decent smart TV at a decent price – this TV is for you.

Great picture and fast delivery. App streaming is great without anything issues and great picture for gaming on the PS4 (when HDMI HDR is enable). Easy setup and easy controls on settings. Downside, a little pricey because this is a 4 series and not a 5 series

This is a great TV for the price. The picture is sharp and clear. I got a independent stand to attach to it so it would fit on my existing TV stand and it works perfectly. It didn’t take me long to set the TV up and to update the apps and services I use to it. It gives you 4 HDMI plugs. The biggest downer for me, is that it doesn’t work with just any sound bar, and does not work with blue tooth. You have to actually get a sound bar that specifically works with the Roku TV. Also, everytime you turn the TV on, you are brought to the home screen, instead of the last thing you were watching. These two things are so minor and with the price of this TV, I can’t find it to be a reason to mark it down. So if you are looking for a TV on a budget, this is a great choice. This was delivered perfectly within 2 days of ordering it and with care.

My dad’s TV was starting to have screen issues, so I went surfing around for a deal and found this. I’ve never used Roku before, but setting it up for my pops was pretty simple. I used the ethernet port instead of WiFi, and the setup was done rather quickly.The Roku interface is very snappy, and the picture quality is amazing (especially compared to his old model). I’m no enthusiast, but I was impressed by the quality of the screen, the the features of the TV.I especially like how the interface lets you preview your other inputs. For instance, if you have a Blu-ray player connected/on, and go to the input section, you can see the screen that the player would be showing before you actually select it.The interface also lets you use your cellphone as an app to control the TV (minimal delay, too!). Makes it very convenient when you inevitably lose your controller and are too lazy to do a full search of the couch cushions.I would recommend this TV hands down.

This is a bad ass tv, good sound and quality picture. Only complain is that it’s in my room. The light stays on and can’t cover it because of the remote sensor. If you like dark room and no light, just find a way to cover it and then take it off when you play the tv. Ps great for playing games!!

Best value for the size and quality. Good for gaming and Hdmi 2.0 (not 2.1). Can’t beat the value.

Don’t feel intimidated about getting this particular television, especially if you’re on a budget, and if you haven’t upgraded your television in several years. You get what you paid for obviously, but not everyone can afford those UHD 4K OLED offerings – which can cost you thousands depending on the brand.With the TCL 4 Series it’s more of an introduction than a straightforward future proof alternative to what’s available currently on the market, there’s still some caveats to consider if you do end up getting this television, the biggest example being the lack of a HDMI 2.1 port, the viewing angle causing saturation depending on where you’re looking, or the fact you have to create a Roku account in order to actually use your television to name just a few.So far though everything has been working as intended despite those few gripes, it arrived in perfect condition without any scratches or noticeable defects thankfully. Now granted if you can afford a slightly better TV, you should obviously go that route more than anything. Just keep an open mind about what you’re getting into for the price. You won’t get the best experience possible out of 4K at this price evidently – but the whole point is to be an affordable entry. And for what it is, it’s the best place to start.

After becoming frustrated that the cheap monitor market couldn’t seem to provide a low-cost, large, 4K, 60Hz monitor (yeah I know that’s a lot, but it’s 2020, sue me) I started to open up my options to include the 4K TV market. Out of concerns for resolution and viewing distance, I actually intended to buy a 32″ TCL screen, and got the 43″ version by accident as a misclick. It turned out to be quite the happy accident, as the extra size and short viewing distance wasn’t a problem for me at all when you have true 4K crispness to behold (this is my first true 4K screen, I may be a little biased). It changed the way I use applications too – where before I used to run browsers and programs in fullscreen, now I usually have two things open in vertical panels side-by-side, or even four things open in each corner if I’m really multitasking.As for setup and input selection, like others have said you’ll need a Roku account to use it as an actual TV, but you don’t to use it as a monitor, and I haven’t made one myself. Setup was straightforward, although there was a little bit of complication with display drivers on my Windows computer since it recognizes it as a Generic PnP Monitor and can’t quite do the usual crosstalk, but some manual settings resolved those issues. There are a number of display adjustments available, including a “game mode” with lower latency (although I’m not entirely sure what that means, since I hardset refresh rate already…) , but more often than not I just adjust the brightness with the remote. The one downside is the lack of physical power or menu buttons on the TV, relying entirely on the remote for control, but it’s been reliable for me so far, so as long as that continues to be that case I have no complaints.
