TCL's new 6-Series delivers sensational performance for a crazy-low price

Like last year's 6-Series, the new-and-improved model offers sensational, quantum-dot-powered brightness and color, the best smart platform in the game, and a host of hardware features that go far beyond the standard-issue set you're likely to find in budget TVs. Considering how well the 6-Series apes the abilities of TVs that cost twice as much, it's a top value pick this year. There are some concessions to mention, however: The TV's design isn't the swankiest, its built-in speakers aren't that great, and it won't quite set you up for a fully-loaded, next-generation gaming experience. But honestly, these are nitpicks--the TCL 6-Series is a sensational value proposition for all but the most dedicated A/V fanatics. You're getting some of the best performance available in this particular price bracket as well as a host of thoughtful additions that'll keep you covered for years to come.
