Re: TCL Tv's
 

Amazon is not a option for me.Since they don't ship any TV 55" or larger to HI. I'm not sure who would by these 2020 models since they are the same price as the 2021 models.
But I guess if they want a Roku TV this would be the one to get. Plus this has one more hdmi port than the 2021 Google OS model. Which from what I can tell is only available at
Best Buy. I'm looking to buy two 4k TV"S. I think I will buy the TCL 55S546 ($499.99) for my Moms bedroom first.

Re: TCL Tv's
 

These are the 2021 models and prices.

Re: TCL Tv's
 

My understanding is these are 2020 Roku models (535 & 635) being carried over to 2021. The newer (546 & 646) are the 2021 models with the flaky Google TV OS and only available at BB.

Is this a good deal? Is this a good tv overall?

Re: TCL Tv's
 

This is the 2020 Roku model that is still selling along side the 2021 model Google TV model. The model you linked to has one more HDMI port. RTINGS.com just release their review of the 2021 Google TV 65S546 model. In the review they sort review both models against each other.This is the lowest price both TV's been this year. The cheapest I seen the 2020 65S535 last year was $599.99. Don't think we will see those prices again. Personally I was thinking about getting the 65" Google TV OS model. But there are lots of bad reviews about the Google TV OS. Both for the 5 & 6 series. I notice now BB has the new 101`4 Series in stock. I think I might just buy the Vizio M70Q7-J03 for $50 ($749.99) more.

Re: TCL Tv's
 

Yeah, I not entertaining the idea of the getting one with the Google OS as it has bad reviews all over.

Re: TCL Tv's
 

If you really want the tv for the updated perks, you can just slap on a Roku device and enjoy it that way. I got the 55R635 (2020 Roku model) last year and it’s a really great panel. I won the panel lottery with it, it has a really good crisp picture with balanced black levels. Well worth the money.

Here’s one of their new TCL C825 (55C825) Mini LED. Looks and sounds great, but as the reviewer said, if you can find an OLED on sale…

I believe this TV is only available overseas.

I ordered the TCL 55S21 for $228.00 from Walmart's Black Friday Sale. But decided to cancel my order after I realize it was the 4 Series. I thought this was a 5 Series TCL TV.

Re: TCL Tv's
 

Looks like Best Buy has the 6 Series Google TV’s about $150 lower. Oddly, the Roku’s (I have the 55R635) have gone UP by $100 or more.

Re: TCL Tv's
 

Amazon now has the 65” 65R735 (Roku) for $799, 75” for $999.

Re: TCL Tv's
 

It looks like all the 2021 TCL R446-R646 TV's have been pulled from BestBuy.com. When you click on any url link you get "We’re sorry, something went wrong".
I wonder why BB pulled these 2021 models from their website? They still lists the 2020 TCL Roku models.

Re: TCL Tv's
 

Huh, I wonder what’s up with that. No articles anywhere about that.

From "The Verge" - Best Buy pulls TCL Google TVs amid complaints of slow, buggy software
https://www.theverge.com/2021/12/9/2...l-os-bugs-slow

Re: TCL Tv's
 

Complaints increased with their November Black Friday sale. Seems Best Buy decided to stock the Google TV ones while Amazon stocked the Roku ones, and the Google ones came out very defective.

Re: TCL Tv's
 

Looks like Best Buy has the 2021 TCL Google TV back in stock on their website. I guess we will see how well these models start to sale again and if there will still be negative reviews.

Re: TCL Tv's
 

Maybe TCL sent some firmware to fix the issues? I wonder if BB sent the older stock back or just kept them off the floor.
