The TCL S450F is a budget-friendly LCD TV known for its fair overall picture quality, making it suitable for various types of content like movies, sports, and cartoons. While its gaming performance is rated poorly, it could still be acceptable for casual gamers. The TV performs evenly in both bright and dark rooms, though not exceptionally in either scenario. It has a good gray uniformity and superb black uniformity, which is beneficial for watching content with darker scenes. However, its local dimming feature is poor, which could affect its ability to depict deep blacks in dark environments. The color performance out of the box is fair, meaning it may not be the best choice for those seeking vibrant and accurate colors without calibration. It responds quickly to inputs, has low input lag, and supports HDR content, but its HDR brightness is poor, potentially leading to less impressive HDR performance. The TCL S450F has a VA panel which tends to have excellent contrast but a narrow viewing angle, so the best picture quality is seen directly in front of the TV. With 4 HDMI ports, you have ample connectivity options, but it does not feature great built-in speakers, suggesting the need for external sound solutions for a more immersive audio experience. If you're a voice command user, this TV supports that functionality as well. Give Feedback
