TCL 5-Series 65" 4K UHD HDR QLED Roku OS Smart TV (65S535-CA)

I have not had this very long yet but for the price I’m impressed! Great picture, the sound is good and clear. I really have no complaints at all about this TV. It’s perfect for our space and from close angles and far away the picture looks great!

I had never heard of TCL before starting to shop for a new TV. We had been looking at purchasing a Samsung QLED when a friend suggested I check out TCL. I read some of the reviews and they seemed good. In reading some of the comparisons with the TV we had been considering, I was a bit worried about the brightness of the picture, but everything else seemed on par. When we got the TV hooked up the picture was fantastic. This TV is plenty bright for us and the picture quality is great. Overall we are very pleased with our purchase and hope that the TV lasts as long as our others.

We’ve been watching a lot of streamed movies during the Pandemic and wanted to upgrade our TV. Our TV room has a 5 speaker sound system and we watch from the sofa with the lights down low, theatre style, so the picture quality was our main criteria. After doing lots of research online at places like rtings.com and tomsguide, the 2020 TCL 5-series kept coming up as having high marks for picture quality and features. We think this TCL 65” with DolbyVision and Roku represents outstanding value.... streamed 4k movies and shows on Apple TV for example are just amazing, as good or better than tv’s costing twice as much.

So far I'm extremely impressed with this product. Colors are phenomenal, no dead pixels on my unit. Settings out of the box are ok but with some settings tweaking I got colors and contrast and lighting for movies just prefect. In bright settings this TV does very well but it does show some glare. At night/dark settings this TV is amazing. In my small room this thing feels like a movie theatre screen to me. The built in speakers are fine but I definer recommend getting a sound system for it. Also the viewing angle is narrow. Anything past 30 degrees loses a lot of image quality and text is almost illegible. The Roku interface is smooth although I'm not a fan of the advertisements. The remote control feels kinda cheap and the lack of voice control is disappointing but it functions well enough for every day use and comes with a dedicated Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, and Sling buttons. I use this TV as a secondary monitor for gaming on my PC and it is really good! Highly recommended as this is currently the best bang for your buck on the market in my opinion.

Very happy with this purchase so far. Easy to set up and great picture quality. Had a sleep timer, which I love because the tv is in my bedroom.
