The TCL S450G is a budget LCD TV appropriate for those who are price-conscious and do not prioritize picture quality above cost savings. It provides a sizeable screen but with relatively poor overall picture quality, which affects movie watching and gameplay experiences. Additionally, its performance in a bright room is not ideal, as it may not hold up well in sunny conditions. However, it is equipped with voice commands for accessibility and supports various HDR formats like Dolby Vision, HLG, and HDR10+, which can enhance HDR content viewing. If you primarily watch sports or use the TV as a computer monitor, it offers fair capabilities but does not excel. Keep in mind, this TV has basic 60Hz refresh rate, fair screen reflections handling, and three HDMI ports, but lacks impressive sound quality. It could be a suitable option for casual viewing or secondary use where the tradeoffs in picture quality and sound are acceptable for the lower price point. Give Feedback
