Differences Between Sizes And Variants We bought and tested the TCL 32S350G, which is also available in 40- and 43-inch sizes. Our model uses the Google TV smart OS, but the TV is also available with Roku TV as well as Fire TV. While all variants share a similar feature set, there are some differences: the Fire TV variant doesn't come with a Game Mode, while the Roku variants have three HDMI ports instead of two and come with Apple HomeKit and Airplay2 support.

The Panasonic Z95A has great HDR brightness thanks to its additional MLA brightness-boosting layer. Combined with its nearly infinite contrast, this TV provides an impactful HDR viewing experience, as bright highlights are very bright and stand out from the rest of the scene. Unfortunately, large bright scenes are significantly dimmer than smaller, specular highlights due to their aggressive Automatic Brightness Limiter (ABL).

Compared To Other TVs The TCL S5 is a fairly basic budget TV. While it lacks more advanced features like local dimming, it's cheap, comes in a wide range of sizes, and fits the bill for those who just want a simple 4k TV at a reasonable price. Its picture quality is nothing to write home about, especially for HDR content, but it's a good value option. It even includes some features found on pricier models, like VRR and Dolby Vision/HDR10+ support.
