TCL Smart TVs

To start with, TCL smart TVs are among the most affordable on the market today. They are also among the most popular low-to-mid-end range smart TVs in the US. One example of this is TCL’s 4-Series smart TV, which offers 4K HDR at an affordable price.

The TCL 4-Series comes with Roku TV built-in, and each model of this series comes with a smart remote. With Roku, you get access to lots of apps and streaming channels. You can control your TV with your smartphone app, or mirror your smartphone files to your TV screen. You can also use the app to control your TV with your voice.

When it comes to screen sizes, the 4-Series is available in a 43-inch model to a 75-inch model. They usually range from $279.99 for the smallest model, to $999.99 for the largest. However, you can get a 65-inch TCL 4-Series from Target for only $399.99 on Black Friday.

Vizio M-Series Quantum

Unlike the TCL 4-Series, the Vizio M-Series Quantum uses advanced features like local dimming. This means it can dim the areas of the TV screen that need it, while keeping the bright parts of the screen the way they are.

The M-Series Quantum also allows you to watch 4K and HDR videos and supports Dolby Vision. It comes with SmartCast 3.0, which lets you cast and control popular apps like YouTube from your phone or computer to your TV with ease.

Toshiba 4K Ultra HD Smart LED TV

What’s special about this Toshiba smart TV is that the 43-inch model comes with Alexa built-in. This means you can talk to Alexa through your TV and integrate it with your other smart home devices. If you want larger models like the 55-inch, you can still use voice control with Alexa and control your other devices.

The Toshiba 4K Ultra HD smart LED TV comes with built-in Fire TV. This means you can access 500,000 movies and TV episodes from Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, HBO, Hulu, and more right out of the box.

This OLED TV can give out higher contrasts of colors than LED TV can. This means that the screen can show the two extremes of bright and dark colors without much difficulty. What’s more, the Sony A9F comes with Triluminos display, which is a technology Sony uses in its TVs to reduce color fading.

The Sony A9F is available in a 55-inch model for $2,799, and a 65-inch model for $3,799.

Samsung Q90 4K QLED

The Q90 QLED is Samsung’s 2019 flagship 4K QLED smart TV. It’s one of the most popular smart TVs on the market. The smart TV uses QLED, which is different from an LED or OLED screen. QLED stands for Quantum Light-Emitting Diode, which means it uses quantum-dots embedded into the LCD.
