    Hi,
    This is one of the best reviews I have come across when it comes to keeping it easy and to the point and not going into too much technicalities to confuse an average customer like me. Thank you so much and keep up the good work please!
    PS - I have one doubt though on warranty. Why TCL is providing warranties of different tenures in different regions for the same model number? I am staying here in the UAE and the standard warranty for this model is 1 year. Is this something you can help me out with in case you have any information on?

    • @innovational
      @innovational  10 місяців тому

      Thanks for your comments Ashish. That's interesting, I am not sure why they have lesser warranty period for the same model of TV in different regions. I am wondering if there is less local service and repair support or perhaps it is a smaller market in your country?

    • @innovational
      @innovational  9 місяців тому +1

      I would get the 85 TCL as the Samsung is a low end model with limited features. Fire stick is okay but locked into Amazon's system so you can only download from their App store and it's a hassle to download other apps that are readily available on Play Store. I personally use Mi Stick, but heard Chromecast 4K is decent. NVIDIA Shield is still the best, but the stopped making new models. All the best!

      OS is a modified android system which needs loads of juice. All of mid-range smart TVs have 4 ARM A53/A55 cores and a weaker gpu which is fine for sluggish performance. OS is good but definitely needs more powerful processor, A7x series at least which are available on more expensive tellys. 2 GB RAM does not help either, they need at least 4 GB for smooth performance.
