If you're on a tight budget and just need a basic TV, the TCL S350R is a much less expensive option, which means you will save money but sacrifice overall picture quality, brightness, and color performance. It's not recommended for gaming, sports, or bright rooms due to its lower scores in these areas. On the other hand, the Amazon Omni QLED costs more, but it offers better picture quality, especially for cartoons and animation, and has more features like voice commands and better scores for use as a monitor. It also supports advanced HDR formats like HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG, which the TCL does not, providing a better viewing experience in varied lighting conditions. If you're willing to invest more for these extra features and better performance in brighter rooms, the Amazon Omni QLED could be a better choice. Give Feedback

Tech Advisor

Jim Martin | April 2023
"This really is a TV designed for the streaming generation ... And it’s good to see support for both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision because it means more of the content you stream will be available in HDR. Overall, the Omni QLED is an impressive TV. It’s pretty bright, has good contrast and – thanks to those quantum dots – vibrant colours."

About Amazon

Amazon, the largest online retailer in North America, has forged partnerships with TCL and Hisense to produce white-label TVs incorporating their Fire OS software. These Amazon-branded TVs typically compete in the low-end and mid-range segments, offering compelling price points. Leveraging their strong reputation, Amazon has swiftly built brand trust in the TV market despite being relatively new to it. To enhance their popularity, these TVs integrate features from the Amazon ecosystem, including Alexa, providing users with a seamless and interconnected TV experience.

About TCL

TCL, the highly recognizable TV brand from China, has firmly established itself as the second-largest manufacturer in terms of sales volume. Renowned for striking an impressive balance between affordability, picture quality, and design, TCL TVs deliver a compelling overall package. While they have traditionally excelled in the low-end and midrange TV segments, TCL has recently made remarkable strides in the realm of high-end televisions, introducing impressive models that rival top competitors. Most TCL TVs use Roku software which is very user friendly and easy to use, but they have a few other models that use Google TV which has the largest app selection, but is not as user friendly as Roku.
