The TCL S446 is a budget-friendly LCD TV that provides a fair viewing experience for sports and cartoons, as well as news, talk, and reality TV. However, its performance in dark rooms and with movies is poor, and it also has poor contrast, which can affect overall picture quality. It offers good reflection handling, which is beneficial if you will be watching TV in a brightly lit room. The S446 has an excellent color gamut, but its HDR brightness is inadequate, meaning HDR content won't pop as much as on other TVs. The TV is equipped with 3 HDMI ports and has a good capability as a monitor, but it does not support advanced HDR formats like HDR10+ or Dolby Vision. For gaming, its lag is fair, and response time is very good, so casual gaming should be satisfactory but might disappoint more serious gamers. Sound quality is fair, so it may require external speakers or a soundbar for a more immersive audio experience. Overall, the TCL S446 could be suitable for general use, especially in well-lit environments, but is limited for movie enthusiasts and serious gamers. Give Feedback
