Previously I've bought and owned 2 of the Roku versions of this TV, and the difference is night and day.
- First off, the images on the Android version are crisper, and there is less screen glare on the coating.
- Wifi connectivity is stable. The Roku version since day 1 has been plagued with random Wifi disconnects.
- Best TV for non-US residents. Unlike the Roku version, hardly any of the apps are region-locked and with the accessibility to the android store, you have access to Twitch AND can even use the Zoom app / Google Meets app for sitting in meetings (haven't been able to allow those apps to use the microphone on the remote)
- Sync and Casting from your phone is a plus. Many times I've started watching a Youtube video on my phone, and unlike the Roku version, the Android TV version allows you to continue from where you left off seamlessly.
All in all, this version is miles better than the Roku version.
I soon found out that you cannot find many options in the 40 inch size. And I could not fit anything more than a 40 inch diagonal. Reviews appeared positive for the TCL. So despite having no familiarity with the brand, I thought I would try it.
First, the WiFi is a very antiquated 802.11n so bandwidth is limited, even with a strong signal (140 - 170 MB/s). WiFi performance has been extremely disappointing (40 - 80 MB/s) And I had a 49 inch Samsung in use prior to redecorating, and that set had flawless WiFi.
So I attached a CAT6 cable (although I was sure the set did not have GB Ethernet). But it seems that Ethernet must be 10 Base-T, as I was seeing only 16 - 18 MB/s. That is 1980/90s technology!
I find the interface to be lacking in features and flexibility. And since the processing power is weak, working through menu after menu to move between streaming channels can be frustrating.
YouYube TV may be a demanding app. And it's performance is abysmal on this TCL. The app takes forever to load, and occasionally it crashes at first. Then video playback freases, buffered, and even may crash.
Other streaming services are not so impacted. Although there have been a few video issues.
I attached my Roku Streaming Stick, and most issues are gone, but one. I now get lags in starting Roku. The HDMI 2 does not wake up fast enough to recognize the connected Roku right away. And on many occasions Roku would not load because it could not detect HDCP on HDMI port 2. Are you kidding me!?
Why can't there be a modern top end 40 inch TV?
I have been struggling to get a reliable streaming experience from the limited technology of this TV. Cord cutting made painful. Out of the box, the processor barely performs well enough to stream. YouTube TV freezes, buffers and crashes repeatedly. My WiFi signal is strong, albeit only 150-175 Mbps. But Netflix reports that this Wireless-n is connecting at only 70-80 Mbps. Connecting to my CAT6 Ethernet is a dismal 15-20 Mbps (10-Base-T, seriously?). Roku Streaming Stick+ can run circles around the TV, but I have to use the HDMI-1 ARC for my sound bar (internal speakers are terrible), and HDMI-2 signal is repeatedly blocked by Roku for not supporting a HDCP signal. What have I purchased?
