If you prioritize overall picture and dark room performance, the TCL S546 with better contrast and local dimming may be the better option, though it might not be as well-suited for gaming. The Toshiba C350LU excels in color accuracy out of the box and has a better viewing angle which could benefit you if you often watch TV with a large group from different angles, but it falls short in most other aspects including picture quality in both dark and bright rooms. If you're looking for a TV with better sound and voice commands for accessibility, Toshiba offers these features. However, if your focus is on picture quality and you don't mind a slightly higher price, the TCL could be the more suitable choice. Give Feedback

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.
