TCL~s 5-Series QLED TV marries premium picture and endless entertainment for a stellar home theater experience. Quantum Dot technology and the HDR Pro Pack with Dolby Vision combine for greater brightness and contrast, as well as a full palette of rich colors. TCL~s Contrast Control Zone technology optimizes the image across individual zones to yield striking contrast between light and dark areas. The 5-Series models~ AiPQ Engine uses machine-learning algorithms to optimize color, contrast and clarity for an unrivaled 4K HDR experience. Easy Voice Control lets you control your entertainment using just your voice. You~ll be ready to play with Auto Game Mode which adjusts picture settings for an optimized fast-response gaming experience. Plus, the Roku OS provides seamless access to your cable box, Blu-ray player, gaming console, and other devices without flipping through inputs or complicated menus. The super-simple remote~with about half the number of buttons on a traditional TV remote~puts you in control of your favorite entertainment.

Great tv not great panel
By b72b
PQ is great, motion is great.... panel not so much...I got the 65” s535.... black uniformity is pretty good but... the tv has very strong vignette in the top right and left corners. Most TVs have this but you have to look for it. It’s really strong on this panel. The panel also has a yellowish / brown form of vignette going from the top left and right half way down the sides of the screen about 2” thick... sometimes it’s real noticeable, sometimes not.. seems to depend on the movie... but on apps static images it’s always noticeable. I’m debating on just returning the tv in general and trying a different brand or trying another hoping for a better panel.. if the panel was better I’d rate the tv 5/5. Like i said picture quality is on par $1500 TVs, motion is good, upscaling is good roku interface is great too. HDR could be brighter but it’s passable.... I just can’t get passed the dirty brown / yellowish corners and sides. Completely ruins the tv.

I’ve taken some pictures. This could be the worse panel I’ve seen im going back to Best Buy after work. It’s completely unacceptable and I can’t believe this got past any sort of quality control.... like - 2” thick border on the inside of the tv all around... these bad areas make any movie scene that’s white or light colored look yellowish/brown watching the first episode of game of thrones when they are in the snow looks like the tv lived with a heavy smoker for 30 years. I understand all tv have some dark corners but this panel has huge corner vignette on top of the border issues... I would change my rating to a zero. I can attach photos (I took them to show Best Buy tonight) but I can figure out how to

Color uniformity and lack of support from Geek Squ
By Kathleen
I was excited to have my first 4K TV and was satisfied with it for about a week until I noticed the lack of color uniformity . Beyond that I purchased a protection plan so I would have help if something like this happened but after an hour on a chat and phone exchange with geek squad, I was told I needed to contact TCL. TCL sent me a list of things to try which will take up a lot of time including resetting the TV to it factory settings and losing all the programing I had done. There is clearly something wrong with the screen and I am disappointed not only in the TV but lack of support from geek squad. I probably am sending this back.

Mine has the same dse brown line on the entire inside frame of the tv. Tcl said it meets industry standards. This tv above has the same issue. It’s basically a crap panel and tcl seems to have the biggest panel lottery I’ve seen! It runs any light color scene on these areas yellowish brown.

It’s a good tv if you don’t mind blurring around images. Especially around people during movement.

After having the tv for 3 weeks before I returned it because the dse was so bad. I realized what your complaint is. The tv has no MPEG or “block” noise reduction so you get the “mosquito” effect on some content when it’s decompressing the image. The roku app has a general noise reduction feature but it doesn’t even work (this is confirmed by pro review sites like rtings). Every tv I have in this house (even a cheap insignia in spare room) has MPEG noise reduction. This is especially needed if you stream a lot. I guess for the price they have to pull back on things... panels, options etc.

Do not waste you time.
By Seth
This TV looked great for a couple days, but then the screen started to develop a weird discoloration pattern. This was the second one to have this issue. The first one went bad and I thought "Okay, I must have gotten the bad apple", so I exchanged it for another. Same problem. This time I contacted TCL's support team. They were not helpful whatsoever, not to mention the time it took to get a response, that was basically useless. The response I received was, to put it simply, return it. Well, that's exactly what I am doing. I would not recommend this or any other TCL product to anyone.

Everywhere seems to be out of these TVs; will Best Buy be getting more?

Probably because half of them are being returned. Avoid this brand. I tried 4 all had awful panels!
