TCL S405 Roku TV: Great streaming in a cheap 4K TV
TCL S405 Roku TV: Great streaming in a cheap 4K TV
2017-08-10
hey everybody you're looking at one of
the cheapest 4k TVs around and it also
happens that the best Smart TV system
available today sound too good to be
true okay there's a catch
aside from its low price the best part
about the TC LS 405 series seen here in
the 55 inch size is Roku this set is
powered by my favorite big-screen app
suite and it beats competing smart TV
systems from Samsung LG and Vizio
handily it's super simple to use with
all your favorite apps like Netflix Hulu
YouTube and the rest front and center
meanwhile your connected device is like
a cable box or PlayStation are presented
right alongside you can easily move and
delete apps and devices from the screen
and the whole arrangement is just as
familiar as your phone even the remote
is extra simple with just a few buttons
Roku has more apps than any system since
the S 405 is a 4k TV it can also handle
4k and HDR streams from compatible apps
like Netflix and Amazon they promised
the best streaming picture you can get
so what's the catch well compared to
other budget TVs from Vizio the S 405
didn't deliver the best picture quality
it was hampered by lighter black levels
leading to lower contrast visible
especially in a dark room even 4k and
HDR video looked worse as a result I'm
not saying that s 405's image is
terrible it's just not as good as the
best budget competition but maybe you're
willing to sacrifice some image quality
for a superior Smart TV and streaming
experience if that's the case the TC LS
405 roku TV is worth a serious look I'm
