The TCL S350G is an LCD TV that comes at a budget price and was released in 2023. It has a 43-inch screen and supports HDR formats. Its overall picture quality performance is poor, which means it may not be suitable for customers looking for high-quality image rendering in movies or for gaming. It performs fairly in bright rooms but poorly in dark settings, so it's not the best option for those who prefer watching content in a dimly lit environment. Its motion processing and upscaling are rated as poor, indicating that fast-moving sports or high-definition content might not display as clearly. The color accuracy out of the box is also rated poorly; thus, colors may not look as vibrant or true to life. The TV has voice commands for accessibility but lacks features like great speakers, Dolby Vision, and Dolby Atmos, which enhance audio and visual experiences. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option primarily for casual viewing in brighter rooms, this could be a consideration, but it is not ideal for cinephiles, hardcore gamers, or those seeking a premium home theater experience.

Ratings by Category

Sports:
3.1
The TCL S350G has a fair reflection handling capability, which means it might struggle with reducing glare in well-lit environments, affecting sports watching. Despite its decent gray uniformity, which is somewhat important for sports, its fair motion handling and response time could lead to motion blur during fast-moving scenes.
