This means the TV has much more uniform brightness across the screen than an edge-lit TV would. This TV doesn’t offer local dimming zones for its direct backlighting. The 5-Series isn’t a high-end TV, at least not in price. This particular Roku remote does not have a built-in headphone jack nor is it a voice remote, though private listening and voice control are available through the Roku app for iOS and Android - we’ll be talking about that app quite a bit in this review. Included with the TV is an increasingly elusive composite video breakout cable, a set of AAA batteries, and a Roku remote. ![]() I’m not a fan of the circular button which sits next to the TV’s Roku logo, and the bottom border is a little large, but on the whole, the TV looks like it should cost more than it does. It’s top and side bezels are extremely thin, the TV’s profile is also quite thin, and the TV’s “feet” are attractive as well, if not a little light and cheap-feeling. The TCL 5-Series is a much better-looking TV than I expected for the price. But what can you expect from a TV at that price? Let’s dig in. So where does the 2019 5-Series sit in TCL’s lineup, and is it worth purchasing one with TCL’s 2020 lineup likely due to hit store shelves in August? After all, a 65-inch model costs just $600, while the 55-inch variant is only $400. ![]() In fact, I think TCL can be thanked for a shift in the TV industry toward higher-performance televisions with lower prices. Today, TCL is the budget-friendly brand to beat, with several models including the noteworthy Roku TVs that perform as well if not better than much more expensive competition.
