TCL 55P615K 55 Inch 4K Ultra HD Smart Android TV

Arrived today, the TV (43 inch model) is very light weight and almost bezeless, picture is clear and sharp, UHD works perfectly as does HDR10+.

Android TV very easy to set up if you have an android phone.

Going by other reviews I was on the fence about this product but I’ve been very impressed so far, I had to tinker with sound settings (wall mount setting seems better even tho I’m using it on a TV stand). All apps working and loading quickly for me, there is a touch of input lag whilst using on screen keyboard but my previous LG TV was the same… Voice commands work via mobile phone app or you’ll need to buy another remote with a microphone.

In regards to others saying apps were loading slowly etc, the TV has about 2GB of RAM so if you’ve opened a lot of apps and went back home and opened another etc this will still use resources in the background… A way around this is to occasionally go into the android TV settings menu and go to apps and then click on apps you’ve been using and “force stop” them freeing up RAM for other operations.

TV worked well with my Xbox Series, no lag problems for me whilst playing fifa and other games.

Overall for the money, it’s superb value.

This tv is fantastic for the price so happy with it , can’t fault i

The TV is perfect, good sound , good picture, fantastic price

The TV itself is brilliant. The picture is crisp and clear and a huge improvement on our previous TV. The android OS is great and saves having a separate box for home theatre or gaming apps.

The speakers appear to be facing down in the front of the TV and this is probably fine for most applications, but our TV is sitting on stone and the audio was awful because of this. We ended up buying a soundbar, which was a great investment in the end. You may not have this issue but it was a big problem for us.

The remote control is garbage. It only works when it feels like it. I would recommend getting a usb air mouse remote and using that instead.

The standby feature is also a bit hit and miss. Sometimes you switch the tv off and it goes into standby, and when you come to turn it on again it won’t respond. The only fix for this seems to be to turn it off at the wall and then on again. Annoying. I’ve searched the internet for a fix but come up empty. In today’s increasingly (and rightly) energy conscious world, it is apparently not possible to just leave the TV on standby, and at some point it just turns itself off. Why it can’t be turned on again, I don’t know, but it is what it is.

Overall, the TV is great while it’s up and running, and I’d recommend it despite its flaws, mainly because of the android TV implementation and the amazing picture quality.

Long story short we have an autistic son who has a bad habit of breaking the telly no matter where we put it or protect it we last had the Expendables and Avenger’s and even that big no. So anyways both of us decided no point getting another posh does everything telly so saw this couldn’t even be bothered reading the amount of k’s or nothing just a telly. Anyhoo it arrives next day and in the box it weighs less than a bag of spud’s and out the box weighs less than the empty bag of spud’s thought this is going to be bad so put legs on and hoped for the worst but it came on and it’s got Android massive good start and set up everything. The picture is fine the panel is bright and no blur. But This has got everything you need if you have a mobile you can work this and I admit the remote is rubbish but download a Bluetooth remote it’s a couple of quid and you can get free one’s and now it’s all controlled through your phone and if you had a Chromecast you can pair that remote to the telly. After a long thought we decided that it’s too nice to be in the living room. Sometimes things really shock you nowadays especially you can buy good names and be really disappointed. I immediately thought that the weight would be an issue why though? I had a telly 60 inch 3D weighed 50 odd kgs so heavy it wouldn’t go on the wall that was the biggest pile of poop screen burnt which is apparently my fault? Two years old and in the tip and I bet my fillings that I am not alone. So being light is a good thing especially if you’re on your own fitting it to a wall and you know it’s gonna hold. The Android wins every time they haven’t attempted to make a smart menu where everything is a chore Philips LG had em they’re more dumb than smart and poor attempts at apps that crash but like you phone it’s the latest version always updated and not being an Apple owner I don’t know about the Bluetooth remote app but I think there’s going to be something similar. I think it is a good bit of kit and that is my opinion yours can be a completely different but you have 30 days to figure it out either way. But I’m keeping my one
