If you haven’t yet heard of TCL, get ready. TCL is the latest tech company out of China that is making a big splash across North America for their affordable 4K televisions. After a year or two south of the border, the brand has entered the Canadian market. The company boasts that it offers up the best 4K TV for a lot less than its competitors. But do their televisions live up to the promise? We checked one out. Well once we could get our hands on one, the moment they hit the market, they sold out almost instantly…. so let’s see what all the hype is about.
TCL offers up two models of 4K televisions: the 4 series (more affordable but still great quality) and the 6 series. Both come in 55″ and 65″ sizes. For this particular review, we checked out the higher end 6 series for our readers. It includes a 4K display with support for both Dolby Vision and HDR 10. The 6 series also features some the best contrast levels on the market with 96 or 120 ‘Contrast Control Zones’ depending on the size of the set. Plus, Wide Colour performance with TCL’s NBP Photon technology produces a vibrant, rich colour palette. This means you get a better overall picture quality. You will quickly notice a difference once you turn on the set, everything looks more real than real.
