If you are on a tight budget, the LG UQ7570 will save you money and gives you a fair performance in a bright room, along with voice command features. However, it generally offers poor picture quality, which may not be ideal for watching movies, sports, or playing games, especially in darker environments. The TCL S435, while more expensive, has a good score for cartoons and animation and comes with 4 HDMI ports compared to just 2 on the LG, which could be useful if you have multiple devices to connect. Neither TV excels in picture quality or gaming, so if these are important to you, you might want to look at other options. Give Feedback

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.
