Only two HDMI, no eARC; TCL service average

Each part is rated on one scale for every TV, from reviewers' measurements (brightness, input lag) where they exist, what reviewers found, specs and owner reports, including after-sales service. It rates the TV itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Very low price for a Full HD smart TV
  • Sharp enough picture at this size
  • Plenty of picture settings to tweak

Cons

  • Dim (about 220 nits) with greyish blacks in dark scenes
  • Colours look overdone in some modes, with banding
  • Thin, muddy sound that distorts near full volume
  • Menus and apps lag, with crashes in the first days
  • TechRadarOct 2024

    Measured the UK 32-inch (Android TV version): a very cheap spare-room TV with decent detail, but grey blacks, over-eager colour, weak sound and sluggish software at first.
