TCL 43T6C-UK 43 Inch QLED 4K HDR TV, Fire TV (Smart TV with Dolby Vision & Atmos, HDR10+, Press & Ask Alexa, 2025 Model)

Well package, beautiful colors, you can see the faces more clearer, haven’t tried my PS5 on it yet, loving it already, will update what its like on PS5 🙂 ok updated version the quality on the PS5 is brilliant to be honest more than highly recommended i would give it 10 stars for this TV (specially PS5 games i dont know about the lesser gens so will be testing that out too), thank you 🙂

Picked this up as a birthday present for my daughter and she’s been over the moon with it. The picture is sharp, colours look great, and the built‑in apps run smoothly without any faffing around. Sound quality is surprisingly decent for a TV this size, and setup only took a few minutes. For a bedroom TV, it’s been spot‑on and she’s really happy with it.

Kitchen is being redesigned and we wanted to incorporate a 32” smart TV that provided Freely, had a Fire OS so that it could integrate with our Alexa enabled devices and support our eufy camera feeds…. Oh and all in FULL HD. This TCL 32” model (32SF560-UK) was NOT our 1st choice…. Unfortunately, it was our ONLY choice that met the criteria at Full HD 1080p resolution. It’s worth noting that we looked at alternatives first - we even tried the Amazon echo hub (I know it’s not a TV, but we had compatibility/consistency issues) and we did consider the latest 21” Amazon echo show, but even at *gasp* £400 price tag, it doesn’t have Freely TV, nor do any of the actual Fire TV’s. So, unless we went for a larger sized Panasonic TV (Panasonics all have Fire OS and Freely, except for the 32”), for the current price of £140, this TCL TV was worth taking a gamble on. 1st thing to note when you unbox it…. It’s incredibly light. It only weighs 3.4kg and should be easily supported by the majority of small wall brackets (with VESA 100x100 mount size). You definitely don’t need any heavyweight brackets specifically advertised for 32” TVs. The 2nd thing you notice is that the lower section of the TV is quite thick in comparison to the overall size and upper part. It measures 7cm deep at this lower part - why? Possibly to incorporate the inputs and power, but also the stereo speakers (that point downwards). I don’t have too much experience with TV’s of this size in regards to speaker quality, but given the size of the speaker housing, I was surprised that the speakers weren’t better sounding! They are just so underwhelming. Once you get everything mounted… the next steps are ; software update (crucial, otherwise BBC iPlayer won’t work), internet connection (via WiFi or Ethernet), channel scans, linking to your Amazon account and other devices etc, creating or logging into itvX account (otherwise you won’t be able to watch ITV channels on Freely). Plus any other apps or streaming services such as Netflix, etc. We had no problems in enabling our eufy security cameras and doorbell with the TV. The good (and bad) thing about Alexa voice commands with this TV is that you interact with the TV via the press of the voice button on the remote. You don’t need to say ‘Alexa’ or ‘echo’ first. Just press and hold the button as you speak. Therefore, if you have another echo device in the same room, you won’t cause any confusion between the two whenever you say ‘Alexa’. But of course it means you have to have the remote nearby all the time if you want to interact with the TV with verbal commands. Picture quality is totally acceptable. It’s 1080p and noticeably better than the 32” 720p models I looked at in the high street shops. Although it’s never going to compete with an OLED TV for depth of colour or broad viewing angles. The key thing is, it’s pretty decent for the screen size - especially considering current price tag. HOWEVER…. (no decent balanced review should exist without a ‘however’)…..There ARE a number of negatives; Whilst the 1080p picture quality is ‘ok’, this only the case if viewing from fairly straight on. Soon as you go about 30 degrees off centre either direction, the colours begin to desaturate significantly! Unfortunately, this is inherent to these low end LED/LCD tv screens and you’re not going to avoid this even with other brands unless you bump up your budget. Aside from this, my two biggest disappointments with the TV is that 1) it does take a while for it to start up…. It’s like an old PC that’s reached retirement age speed in loading and starting up. 2) Once it’s all turned on… you have to endure an endless stream of Amazon product adverts until you press a channel or app on the remote control. Is this why this TV is relatively so “cheap”? Have I just paid Amazon for them to show me their adverts or 3rd party adverts in my own home? Paying for a TV that force feeds you adverts via the operating system isn’t what I signed up for. It’s worse than turning on your ‘normal’ TV and the default channel is always one of those late night shopping channels. From what I understand, “echo Shows” have a similar issue, but on a smaller scale. Fortunately when placed on standby and it’s turned on again, it doe go straight to your last channel. But if I had known this what it means to have an Amazon ‘Fire OS’ on my TV, I may have waited another 6 months and researched other alternatives. But the saddest thing for me about this Fire OS is…. now knowing that I may never revisit my favourite TV brand again when we look at upgrading our old main Panasonic TV in a few weeks time. I really want to give this a 3 star or lower rating. But once I’m reminded that this is currently the ONLY TV on the market (that I found/know of… I challenge you, tell me of another!) that is 32 inches, full HD and has Fire OS and Freely… then perhaps it deserves better.

I’m really happy with the TCL 65PF650K 65-inch 4K Ultra HD TV. The picture quality is clear and sharp, the Dolby support makes movies and shows look great, and the resolution is excellent for everyday watching and streaming. The sound is also good for a TV in this price range. Overall, this is a great deal for the money, and considering the large 65-inch screen and solid performance, I would definitely give it 5 stars for the price. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a big 4K smart TV without spending too much.

Perfect TV. I have a small room but with it on a wall mount - it's great for what I need. I thought it was easy enough to set up. Just a small fight with Disney+ app, but that was easy enough to work around. The sound isn't terrible to me, but I might very well end up investing in a sound bar in the future. For now, it was an excellent buy. I think the already installed apps are brilliant and you can add ones you want. Plenty of points to attach your consoles, a dvd player etc which I think is important. The picture quality is crisp and clear. All in all, a very happy customer.

Great quality and looks amazing. Easy to set up and great build quality.

It’s a great tv for the price but there is a few issues 1 it takes ages when you turn the tv on with hdmi ARC to find sound 2 when u first turn tv on it takes ages to load anything feels very sluggish 3 also when you press guide it takes ages to load like a massive delay and you no it’s delayed cos it makes sounds when u click things so when I click guide u hear it then takes ages to appear Maybe it’s due a software update at some point had a replacement tv sent to me worked for 2 days then started doing the same things not happy with this product

I’ve been using the TCL 43PF650K 43” 4K Fire TV for a couple of months now, and overall it’s been a very solid upgrade for the price. Picture quality is the biggest win here. 4K content looks crisp, colours are vivid, and Dolby Vision definitely helps movies pop. Even regular HD channels upscale nicely, so day-to-day watching feels sharp and clear. The brightness is good enough for both daytime and evening viewing, and the viewing angles are decent for a mid-range LED panel. Sound is surprisingly good too. With Dolby Atmos support, the audio feels fuller than most TVs in this price bracket. For casual watching, you don’t really need an external soundbar. Fire TV integration is smooth, with all the main apps — Netflix, Prime Video, YouTube, Disney+, etc. Navigation is quick most of the time and Alexa voice control works well. The only downside: Every now and then the TV hangs or freezes for a few seconds. It’s not constant, but when it happens it’s annoying and interrupts the smooth experience. A quick restart usually sorts it, but still something to note. Overall: A great value 4K TV with strong image quality, good sound, and all the smart features you need. If TCL improves the occasional software hiccup, it would be perfect. Perfect for anyone who wants a solid, affordable 4K experience without breaking the bank. Came without any damage to the screen.
