How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsA Decent Entry Into 4K - Nothing More Or Less
Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2020
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.

1.0 out of 5 starsThis TV does NOT support HDMI 2.1
Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2020
The specs (suitably) fail to describe the HDMI port version. The TV will NOT perform at 120hz (120fps) with an Xbox Series X which REQUIRES HDMI 2.1. BEWARE!

1.0 out of 5 stars BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE!! READ EVERYTHING PURCHASING ANYTHING FROM TCL ROKU TV!!!
Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2021
Size: 50 inStyle: TV OnlyVerified Purchase
BEWARE! This POS television REQUIRES you to sign up for a ROKU account and it also REQUIRES that you place a credit card on file with ROKU! I didn’t really pay attention to the details when I purchased this television and now it’s been installed on my wall it’s what I have…I AM FURIOUS ABOUT THIS AND WILL NEVER SPEND A DIME OF MY MONEY ON ANYTHING THAT WILL BENEFIT ROKU! This is BS and ROKU should be ashamed!! I WILL RELAY THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE I KNOW OR MEET ANYWHERE THAT THE SUBJECT OF PURCHASING A TELEVISION COMES UP IN CONVERSATION! Cost me 1 television it will COST ROKU MANY NEW SALES IN THE FUTURE!! ONE PISSED OFF MOTIVATED TRICKED CUSTOMER CAN BE A FORCE TO DEAL WITH AND CAN CREATE MEANINGFUL HARM TO A BAD ACTORS BOTTOM LINE!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst TV I have ever set up
Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2020
Size: 43 inStyle: TV OnlyVerified Purchase
This TV requires the owner to create an account with a service called ROKU to activate the TV so you can use it for whatever purpose you purchased it for I saw this was a ROKU TV but I did not realize at purchase time that the amount of privacy innovation this company does in order for one to even watch air wave TV

If you think invasion of privacy and data gathering of how you watch TV the this I the TV for you. Spend your money for big brother to watch you and focus their advertising on you,

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing quality picture and features
Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2020
Size: 43 inStyle: TV OnlyVerified Purchase
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great TV for the Price
Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2020
Size: 50 inStyle: TV OnlyVerified Purchase
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.

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!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product for low price
Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2020
Size: 43 inStyle: TV OnlyVerified Purchase
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
