TCL 32" Class 3-Series Full HD 1080p Smart Google TV – 32S356

I was in the market for a 32 inch television for my bedroom and discovered that TCL had two full HD tvs, a Roku and a google tv set. As I already had a Roku Streambar, which I was going to continue to use as a soundbar, It made sense to go for the Google TV. Adding weight to the decision, the Google set comes with an ethernet port and the Roku doesn't. How does the TCL 32S356 perform? Picture - The 32S356 comes with a full HD panel and the picture is sharp, clear and bright, I am very pleased with it. The tv is best viewed straight on as the colors are less bright at an angle. The tv also picked up when accessing an HDR10 source and informs you that it is running HDR. Digital Tuner - Although this carries less weight on my part as I am using the tv for streaming, the digital tuner appears to be excellent. It picked up all the major channels and more subchannels than I was aware existed. Streaming - I'm familiar with the Google TV service, my downstairs television has a Chromecast with Google TV streaming device. I knew that the TV would access every streaming channel I use. I find the TCL tv to be very responsive. Initial setup takes a while as you will have to download the current software and download any apps that you're installing. Once set up, the tv starts quickly and apps load very quickly. Sound - As I had mentioned at the top, I was planning to use the Roku Streambar as a sound bar. Using the HDMI ARC port, setup was painless. The TV immediately sensed that it was connected to the Streambar. I then disabled the soundbar to try the internal speakers. It's here that the tv falls short. That said, the internal speakers are adequate, with sufficient volume and clear audio. The frequency response is where the speakers fall short, with no bottom end, the speakers sound a bit tinny. Without a soundbar, the tv would still be adequate for viewing, but the tv really benefits from an external soundbar. Overall, I am very pleased with my TCL television. It does everything well and is the perfect fit for a bedroom.

TCL Google TV with the excellent picture quality on my desk. I always like TCL TV because it provides the best quality products at a reasonable price, compared with other brands in the industry. A long time ago, I bought a 65-inch TCL TV in the living room, this time for work as a PC monitor. In addition, it's easy to connect, set up, and connect your laptop. I love the sound quality of the internal speaker.

Purchased this for a guest bedroom. Works as expected. It is smart TV with a BLUETOOTH option which is the point of the purchase. The only complaint I got from guests is the absolutely obnoxious power light which is right in the middle front of the TV. It is so bright it lights up the entire bedroom!! Okay, the solution is to cover the light. WRONG. The remote is NOT RSS which means you have to point it to where the damn light is. If you cover the light the remote does not work with the TV. Who the heck designed this TV. Too late to send back. If these two issues are no big deal, it’s a great TV. If you don’t want a bright light in your room, do not NOT buy this product.

This 32-inch 1080p Full HD TV is an absolute steal! I snagged it for under $100 on Cyber Monday, and let me tell you, it's been a game-changer in my kitchen. The Full HD (1080p) resolution makes the picture quality top-notch, ensuring a clear and vibrant display that surpasses lower resolution HD (720p) TVs. It is compact enough not to clutter my kitchen yet large enough for enjoyable viewing. Two things you need to know, the operating system is slow and the speakers are poor. I paired it with an Apple TV and some bluetooth speakers which improved the experience drastically. It is very lightweight so you can wallmount it solo. In a nutshell, despite the lackluster operating system, this TV shines when coupled with additional devices. For college students residing in cozy dorms, this would make an excellent gift. Without a doubt, I'd purchase it again. TLDR: Great value TV but needs a streaming device and some wireless speakers to take it to the next level.

Read the reviews, accepted them as good, ordered this (for a computer monitor & perhaps some other features..Primary reason, however, was for a nice large monitor for a laptop... delighted! Have ordered/purchased another and every neighbor who sees this little jewel is off to try to get one for the same and various other reasons (child's room, man cave TV, etc).. Noted that Sam's Club has these now in stock (slightly higher price)...could not, in good conscience, imagine driving there to get an item that is handed to us at our front door...ease of purchase/guarantee/quality of product is all we could have hoped for...may order yet another as a gift for neice...Thank you, regards...linda and carl brown

This is the third TCL TV I have purchased, my first Google, the other 2 are both Roku. This is NOT a 4k set but it still has a pretty good picture. TCL products for the money are a great value. I do own a 43" 4k TV and the picture quality is excellent. I also own a TCL smartphone and tablet and I've had zero problems with any of them.

At about 2 years and 10 months, the TV began powering off or on randomly. At first, it would just power off every now and then. Then, it started powering on by itself. I tried all of the advice online about software updates and checking to see if the button was stuck, etc. None worked. Eventually, I ordered a replacement main board - TCL 30800-000701 Main Board 32S350G - and installed it (which was really simple and less than 5 minutes). It seems to be working ok now - no random powering on/off. In my mind a TV shouldn't need repairs inside 3 years. I'll steer clear of TCL TVs from now on. One other note - the lack of 5ghz wireless support is a bit annoying; it only works on 2.4ghz.

I needed a TV for my office and this TV fits the role perfectly. I would not have this as a primary TV for home. A TV of this quality is for the Office, Cabin in the woods, or RV use only.

Muy buenas prestaciones y calidad de imágenes.

Muy buena imagen, audio y tamaño apropiado para un espacio pequeño.

La tv es un poco lenta y con los colores oscuros pero es bastante amigable con las animaciones y videojuegos. El sonido es mejor de lo que esperaba. Me agrada que al ser Google tv puedo tener el control del uso que le da mi hijo pequeño.
