Vizio M7 75" was a front page deal recently for the same price. The TCL fares much better on rtings.com with an impressive mixed usage score of 8.0. The M7's mixed usage score of 7.7 suffered mostly due its sports and TV show ratings.

It would be hard to know. The thing to remember is if you enjoy the image quality, does anything else matter? The sites that review these are doing side by side comparisons, using measuring devices, etc. General consumers are just doing the eye test with a single device in front of them. We have a 4 series and older 6 series (P607). After tweaking settings, it is really hard to tell the difference with general viewing in comparable viewing environments (night time). The 6 series is in our basement so there is rarely much light to compete with, but the 4 series is on the main floor in a room with a ton of windows. Even when we had them reversed, the sun shining directly on either TV impacted things more than the technical differences between the two.

Just make sure you tweak picture settings (at a min, take it off eco mode), and my guess is you will be pleasantly happy. That advice holds for whatever TV people buy - they usually come on a power saving mode that impact brightness.

I find it funny when people compare TV's in general… just buy what your disposable income allows you to that meets your expectations of use. No one should tell you what your own use case would be for a TV. If you're in front of your TV all day then buy a top of the line Sony or LG OLED. If you're a gamer then get a 120htz tv. If you just watch sports then buy a 77-85" tv. For the kitchen, gym, or garage - save some money and get a smaller 4k from a cheaper brand. If you only watch tv from time to time then get any 4k 55"-70" decent tv like Vizio, TCL, Hisense, etc. most importantly for all of these occasions take warranty into deep consideration from retailers like Costco.

Is the 5 series as bad as the 4 series in terms of dying after 2.5 years?
Also more interested in the 55 inch for $380. Maybe the 65 inch but I would be using the stand not wall mount and might be too big for my TV stand

As somebody who has the 55 inch 5 series, this TV is definitely better than M series Vizios now imo.

Distance of the TCL S555:

1. TCL 55S555 (22.7 or 42.3 X 11.0 inches)
2. TCL 65S555 (27.0 or 50.2 X 12.8 inches)
3. TCL 75S555 (27.8 or 57.3 X 15.2 inches)

Vision but no Atmos support, interesting
Really?! My 5 series from 2020 supports Dolby Atmos

I was strongly considering this for the living room, but no Dolby Atmos is gonna kill it for me. The difference between Atmos and no Atmos even on a low end sound bar makes a massive difference imo.

Going from something on Netflix with Atmos compatibility like stranger things to something that's non Atmos is almost jarring at times.

For reference, I have a mediocre TCL soundbar with a wireless sub. perfect for small apartment living. It's not like I have a real home theater setup to notice the difference.

I will also note the stock speakers on my 5 series are awful, but to be expected.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank DeProof

Quote from Defensivetackle99 :
I'm surprised you guys praise this TV since the Sony Bravia A80-90J variant for example have some what better specs than this one.

My guess is because the idea of paying for name brand is not always a sound choice, given the price.

Am I crazy to pass this deal for the A80J anyways? Pls tell me your opinion.
Yes, you are crazy. The A80-90J is an OLED. Not in the same realm as this set. No one is cross shopping this TCL 5 series to an OLED.

Here is the correct comparison, with the Sony X80j.

And yes, you would be crazy to get the Sony over this. Like you said you would be paying for the brand name and getting a much crappier set.

This or Hisense u6h?
Hisense u6h 75 inch panel is IPS of I remember right. This is VA and should be better.

Ordered one for Black Friday for 800. But later cancelled when I got the 6 series open box from BB for 1150. At 700 this is a good deal. Look for BB open box near you, I found an OB excellent for 640 near me. Save some more $.

Hisense 85" U7H is on sale for $1499.99. Think it's time to jump on that one.

Maybe you can still get Atmos through Soundbar, it is just the TV is not able to decode Atmos. Not 100% sure about that.

Interesting. It just that I see the thread about Sony A80-90J deal for $999.99 and it has lots of upvote. MSRP shows $1999.99 for the 55'' variant.

I also am having a hard time understanding the segment of TV. I get the car segment very well ie subcompact, compact, mid size, full size car/truck/SUV and of course, EV.
