FIVE STARS YOU SHILL?!?!?... YES!!! And don't call me a shill...This rating is for a 65" 4K smart TV, that has an under $1000 price point, I am neither a technophile nor do I "Keep up with the Jones" I'm sure there are better TVs but not many at this price point
Setup was a breeze, we're talking I dragged this off my porch at 6am and had it unboxed, assembled and up n' running before my coffee was brewed, my favorite feature is that this unit has TWO possible positions for the legs which is great as the smaller 97cm/38inch position is perfect for smaller entertainment stands, the packaging clearly discouraged solo assembly/placement but it is possible and easy enough assuming you are reasonably strong and have common sense, the initial setup is very quick and easy
Audio is good, very good for stock speakers on a cost effective TV, it's not muffled or tinny sounding as many TVs in this range are, I'm still in shop for a good sound bar, but it's far less urgent as the quality is deep in the range of "Good enough"
Video is great, this TV would hide in plain sight among its high end contemporaries at an electronics store it's not washed out or dim at all, viewing angle is 180° many TVs are only watchable while sitting centered not the TCL, if you have line of sight to the screen it will be consistent
Gaming: in gaming mode there is no noticeable input lag, outside of gaming mode it is minimal and probably acceptable for any gaming experience short of competition level COD style games. As I'm still hitting perfect timed quick skill checks without GM enabled
The resolution/refresh rate is deceptive...
Yes it is a 4kUHD TV with 120hz refresh...just not at the same time, either you play in 4k @ 60hz or 1440p @ 120hz
Slightly disappointing but at the end of the day 4kUHD @60hz is just fine, I'm not noticing any blur, stuttering or tearing of any kind...this is a under $1000 TV!!!!
Smart features: They are good, streaming works well, apps load quickly and the layout is pretty straightforward. could grandma operate it? Probably...it's not much more complected that a microwave oven
Will it stand the test of time? It's too soon to tell, but if the power source and backlights are of good quality I will be more than satisfied to pull 5 years of satisfied viewing out of this TV and would probably replace it with the same or comparable Make and Model when the time comes.
