TCL 108 cm (43 inches) Metallic Bezel-Less Series 4K Ultra HD Smart LED Google TV 43V6B (Black)

I've been using this TV for the past 3 months, and it's been performing perfectly. The picture quality remains sharp, and the 180-degree viewing angle truly delivers – there's no color distortion even when viewed from the sides. Everything works as expected, including the button switch, despite initial doubts.Very satisfied with the performance so far. Hoping it continues this way long term!

Initial Impression and Issues:• The TV arrived non-functional, which is a significant quality control concern. A technician was required to fix it, indicating a potential manufacturing or shipping issue.• After the technician reset the TV, it worked temporarily, but the problem recurred within two days with no power supply, suggesting unreliable performance or a deeper hardware issue.Performance and Features:• The TV is advertised as 4K, but it only plays 1080p videos. This could be due to several reasons:• Incorrect Settings: The TV might not be configured to output 4K resolution. Check the display settings to ensure 4K is enabled and that you’re using a 4K-compatible HDMI cable and port.• Content Limitation: Ensure the content you’re playing is 4K. Many streaming services or media files may default to 1080p unless 4K is explicitly selected or supported.• Hardware Issue: If the TV cannot display 4K despite proper settings and content, it may not meet the advertised specifications, which could indicate a defective unit or misleading marketing.Reliability and Service:• The need for a technician visit right after purchase and the subsequent power failure after two days point to poor reliability.• The technician’s fix (resetting the TV) was only a temporary solution, as the power issue returned, suggesting inadequate repair or a persistent hardware fault.Recommendations:1. Contact TCL Support: Since the TV is still malfunctioning (no power), reach out to TCL customer service immediately. Provide details of the technician’s visit and the recurring issue. As the TV seems to be under warranty (given it was faulty upon arrival), request a replacement or further repair.2. Verify 4K Capability: If the power issue is resolved, test the TV with confirmed 4K content (e.g., from Netflix, YouTube, or a 4K Blu-ray) using a high-speed HDMI cable. Check the TV’s settings under “Display” or “Picture” to ensure 4K resolution is enabled.3. Document Issues: Keep records of all communications with TCL support and the technician’s visits. If the TV continues to underperform or fails, this documentation will support a warranty claim or refund request.4. Check Model Specifications: Confirm the exact TCL model number and its advertised features. Some TCL models may have limitations (e.g., certain apps or inputs not supporting 4K). Cross-check with the user manual or TCL’s official website.Overall Rating (Tentative):• 1/5 stars (based on the TV being non-functional out of the box, recurring power issues, and failure to deliver advertised 4K performance). This rating may improve if TCL resolves the issues promptly and the 4K issue is due to settings rather than hardware limitations.

8 months CompletedPro:Picture Quality and Audio quality is goodFree live channels (mostly news channels)No issues till nowCons:Processor is not smoothNot bezel-less, bezel is inside screenSurround sound is not up to market standard but good at this price point

Perfect size / worth the price / all perfectWill surely recommend this size of Tv at this pricePerfect all over

Very nice. Working good. Sound and picture quality is very nice.

Startup time is little longer menu and settings are in grey colour they should be white.

I bought 55" tv but faced display issue within 5 months. Product quality is ok (not good or not bad) but reliability is a concern.Company service is extremely slow and pathetic as entire process of replacement is taking more than 25 days. (Still I have not received my replacement product) (complaint raised on 7th March 2025 and today is 5th April 2025)Customer support is the worst in the market as no follow up Or courtesy from their end. I have called their customer support number n number of times but they dont pick any of the call.I have called on their service person number but it is no use 90% of the time either he didnt pick your call or if he picked they only gives you false communications like ( aaj ayega pc, kal ayega , aa gaya hai, aj lagwa dunga kind if bakwaas )My suggestion is rather than going for this cheap model by seeing price and features, it is better to go for reliable brands like LG and Samsung. (My previous model was LG 43" LED which I have used over 12 years)NOTE - DO NOT BUY THIS CRAP..
