The LG UP7000 offers a slightly better overall viewing experience than the TCL S435, with better performance for movies and sports. However, for gaming, both TVs offer similar experiences. The LG UP7000's better handling of reflections might be preferable if you tend to watch TV in a bright room. On the other hand, the TCL S435 usually costs less, and it offers more HDMI ports which could be useful if you have multiple devices to connect. If budget is a key concern and you need more connectivity options, the TCL S435 could be the way to go. Otherwise, for a bit more investment, the LG UP7000 offers enhancements that might be noticeable in daily viewing, especially in varied lighting conditions. Give Feedback

"The TCL 4-Series is so inexpensive and capable you might start to question why there are any multithousand-dollar TVs at all. The 4-Series setup is intuitive and easy. If you're just looking for an easy-to-use TV with decent picture, this is an excellent place to start."

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.
