If you're seeking a TV on a tight budget, the TCL S450R could be a more affordable choice and offers excellent black uniformity which is ideal for movies in dark rooms. However, it falls short in upscaling, motion processing, and HDR brightness which may not be suitable if you often watch higher-quality content or HDR movies. The LG NANO75 costs more, but has better color accuracy, a wider color gamut for more vibrant colors in movies and better reflection handling for usage in brighter rooms. However, its poor contrast might not provide as deep black levels for watching in the dark. Both TVs have similar sound quality but neither feature standout audio. For gaming purposes, neither is particularly strong but the TCL's best-in-class input lag makes it slightly more responsive for gaming. If you mostly watch news or sports in well-lit rooms, the LG NANO75's advantages may be more appealing, otherwise, for general viewing in mixed environments and for budget-conscious buyers, the TCL S450R might suffice.

About LG

LG, a prominent TV brand from Korea, has played a significant role in popularizing OLED TVs. OLED technology is hailed as the future of TV technology. Their TVs employ WebOS, a proprietary smart TV software that not only offers seamless functionality but also includes gaming-specific features, earning praise from players worldwide. Often regarded as the gateway to unparalleled viewing experiences, LG's mid-range OLEDs come highly recommended, making them a worthwhile investment for those willing to stretch their budget for superior quality.

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.
