The LG G2 is an OLED TV that generally costs much more than the TCL S546, which is an LCD model. If you prioritize excellent overall picture quality, gaming performance, and viewing in dark rooms, the LG G2 should serve you well. However, the TCL S546, despite its lower cost, still offers decent performance and is sufficient for general viewing in brighter rooms. The TCL might not perform as well for sports content or provide as wide viewing angles as the LG G2. For those with budget constraints who want a good TV for everyday use, the TCL S546 is a solid choice. If you're looking for a premium experience, especially for movies and gaming, and are willing to spend more, the LG G2 is the superior option. Give Feedback

The LG G2 (OLED) is excellent for movies & TV, while the TCL S546 (LCD) is good.
The LG G2 OLED is excellent for movies and cinematic TV due to its perfect contrast with true blacks, enhanced by its outstanding local dimming and black uniformity capabilities; whereas, the TCL S546 LCD is good but lacks the superior contrast and local dimming quality, and its black uniformity is not as robust. Additionally, the G2 offers better out-of-the-box colors, a wider color volume, and superior viewing angles, all of which contribute to a richer and more immersive viewing experience compared to the S546.

The LG G2 (OLED) is very good for sports, while the TCL S546 (LCD) is only fair.
The LG G2 (OLED) provides a superior experience for sports watching, with faster response times that reduce motion blur and a better ability to handle reflections, which is essential in bright rooms, along with wide viewing angles that maintain image accuracy when seen from the side. The TCL S546 (LCD), on the other hand, has lower performance in motion processing and reflections handling, and more limited viewing angles, making it less ideal for dynamic sports content especially in well-lit environments or for groups spread out across the room.

The LG G2 (OLED) is very good for gaming, while the TCL S546 (LCD) is only fair.
The LG G2 OLED is superior for gaming due to its best response time and very good input lag, which provide smoother motion and faster reaction times in games, supported by a high refresh rate OLED panel. Meanwhile, the TCL S546 LCD has only a good response time and very good input lag, which is less optimal for fast-paced gaming, and it uses a lower refresh rate standard LCD panel which doesn’t handle motion as well as OLED.

The LG G2 (OLED) is excellent for news, talk, & other TV, while the TCL S546 (LCD) is only fair.
The LG G2 OLED's superior upscaling and SDR brightness make it excellent for watching news and talk shows, ensuring clear image quality from any source and good visibility even in bright rooms, while the TCL S546 LCD's fair performance in these areas may result in less sharp upscaling of low-resolution content and reduced visibility in well-lit environments. Additionally, the LG G2 boasts better colors out of the box, a wider color gamut, more effective local dimming, and higher contrast, which enhances the overall viewing experience compared to the TCL S546.

The LG G2 (OLED) is very good for bright room, while the TCL S546 (LCD) is good.
The LG G2 (OLED) outshines the TCL S546 (LCD) in a brightly lit room due to its superior SDR and HDR brightness along with excellent reflection handling, making it more suitable for viewing in such conditions. Despite this, the TCL S546 still offers good performance in bright rooms and its satisfactory brightness and reflection management can be enough for everyday viewing, especially considering its generally lower price point.

"When it comes to picture quality alone, the LG G2 is absolutely among the best OLED TVs we've ever seen. You're getting a set that's basically impeccable across every aspect of its performance, it's truly one of the best TVs on the planet. The Brightness Booster Max technology really pays dividends to set it apart from the crown. The LG G2 is a superb OLED TV that delivers exceptional HDR performance with bright specular highlights, and incredibly accurate dynamic tone mapping."

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.
