Excellent for the price

published

Excellent TV for the price.
Has a nice 'Cinema' picture mode that removes any imperfection of video quality. It does butiful magic and it is nice the eye.
I have a sound bar (bought before TV) and I rarely use sound bar now, because this TV has excellent sound.
It ticks all the boxes.
The best TV I ever had.
CPU and Android OS that runs TV is fast. No lagging in using Android TV.

Only one small negative, when the picture moves to all pitch black, you can see uneven distribution of the backlight. However, I do not complain, because it ticks all other boxes and price is excellent.

Purchased in September 2021 at The Good Guys for $1,104.00.

Clunky, slow and average quality.

published

Purchased for the kids room and for its purpose it’s ok for them to watch youtube and movies.
The android OS is so slow and clunky it makes me so angry when I have to use it. Feels like it’s a beta software from 5 years ago. Had many issues with it going in to shop mode even after firmware upgrade, loses wifi settings, sound is terrible from HK soundbar built in. Will never buy tcl again, just an awful clunky TV.

Cheap with problem after problem

published

Had seen reviews being positive but utterly disappointed. Less than 3 months in. Internet connection warnings plastered on screen that won't go away. Channels disappearing and buttons working when they feel like it. Updates are ridiculously lengthy too! Having to reset the TV time and time again just to watch basic tv.

Best TV ever for the price.

published

A lot has been written about this TV already so I won't go into the specs but, instead, relate my experience with it. This TV rules. 4K videos look great on it. The audio is loud and rounded enough that I don't need a soundbar. As we speak I'm listening to the greatest hits of No Doubt on it. I spent a lot of time with the different video settings but, really, the default ones suit me fine

TCL C2 Series

1. Smart TV's operating system and application satisfaction generally, no phone and computer to simple, but the operation is relatively simplified.
2. Product features are relatively simple. Performance is better than ordinary TV, so satisfaction is very good.
3. The Bluetooth function of TV is not so easy to use, wireless connection is a very good function, the satisfaction of the general.
4. The port of the device is still quite adequate, the ports are basically all, more comprehensive.

Budget TVs

published

When I first started the TCL smart TV, I saw what they called the home page. Unlike most other manufacturers, TCL provides it directly before my input. Because the smart function only presses one button, it is very intuitive.It brings together everything available for free, purchase or lease.
Overall, it's tough to beat them when it comes to budget TVs, and that makes them a pretty safe bet.

Works well in all areas. Used in upstairs for kids and friends to watch movies and play games with friends and family. Kids have even linked up computer to use as computer screen when needed for homework! Wireless connectivity is great. Plenty of ports for uses in the room. picture quality is great. Would purchase again without any doubt.

Great looking Budget TV with a great picture

published

Spent a few months shopping around comparing between hisense, sony, lg and TCL. After much comparison pulled the trigger on one of these. Glad i did, picture quality is great, sound is above average (still may need a soundbar but it does a good job). Placed it in the bedroom, was bigger than i expected, looks great. Unfortunately no 100hz refresh rate but that's expected with a $899 tv. Android tv is quick and works fluidly.

Really good smart TV with a few surprises!

published

This TV is straight up awesome! The picture is great to look at. rich colours, good contrast superb detail and no dead pixels! I was impressed from the first time I turned it on and still am. I have a bit of an issue with the remote however. I don't think much of the layout or non-positive feel of the buttons so I am taking one star off for that. Now for the surprise bit... i did not realise that this actually has a built in chrome cast so you can sream anything and everything or even send your desktop over to it! Its all round agret TV and excellent value when you compare it to the competition.

Awesome TV - We Love It

published

This is the best TV we have had by far! The picture is beautiful with vibrant colors and good contrast but the thing that I LOVE is the built in chromecast. I use this every day and can stream anything and everything. I don't really watch free to air TV anymore accept for the news. The remote is a bit complicated but I am getting the hang of it. The audio quality well this is the lowest feature, I may well add a soundbar later but overall very happy for the price

Very Good Picture

published

Very happy with the picture quality from this chip as chips TCL TV. I know its a cheaper brand but the picture quality is pretty astonishing. It's big bright and very detailed with excellent colour separation. Audio is often a let down on cheaper TVs but this is more than passable although I have powered speakers attached. The only fault as I see it is slow channel changing times on occasion. Its a very good package for the price

Great Value for money

I bought this TV after using Hisense and LG both. In LG i experienced screen flickering and in Hisense i experienced sound issues. This catered both. It has amazing sound and picture quality. The only thing is i am not impressed by the firmware and the OS. The response time is slow and its not easy to navigate through the interface provided through apps. When using netflix, I have to punch in the password everytime I use it.
