55inch TCL 4 series is available too at Costco for $459.99. All TVs come with a two-year warranty, and you can buy three additional years for $29.99 as long as the TV price is $500 or lower.

Brand is often meaningless. The best TCL is far better than the worst Samsung. The TCL R617 for example, will blow away anything Samsung makes in the same size and price range. The "God-tier" brands are often only great at higher price points.

What Costco did you see this at?

Also anyone know the difference between the S421 (Walmart), S423 (Costco) and S425 (Amazon)?

I know the difference between the 6 series is the remote... S615 (IR) vs S617 (RF)

Vizio P is still going to be a better TV. Are you hoping for the TCL 6 to be much cheaper than it? That's possible but it won't be as good. It should be better than Vizio M though.

Sorry, I have only used WebOS (LG) and Android TV (Sony)
I was able to stream with plex, not sure if it will play from a NAS.

Everyone saying the TCL is a good tv.. but reviews state the 4k is not much better then the standard mode. The features are awesome they say, but the actual picture quality is not that great.

Not sure what to think :/

I saw this tv at the Brampton Costco. There is no difference between the Costco, Walmart and Amazon one. The model numbers are slightly different as each model number is specific to a retailer.

It all depends on what you are planning to use this TV for. If it is being used for a bedroom and you are looking for basic quality, then the value is great, but if you want more out of the TV or planning to use this as your main TV, I would personally suggest something else.

I bought the four series a few months ago from Walmart for $468 and ended up returning the TV to get the Vizio M series from Costco instead which was going for $130 more at the time. The M series offered much better HDR, blacks looked better, offered local dimming, 4 HDMI ports instead of 3 and Dolby vision.

Again, the four series is a great value, but the quality isn't nearly as comparable to other brands.

I would recommend getting the 6 series or another TV instead. But if you are on a tight budget then this one could work for you.

I forgot to mention that the four series TV packaging was simply horrible. For some weird reason, they decided to stick plastic stickers all across the screen, and when you are peeling them off the TV, it literally feels like you are ripping the screen.

Still trying to figure out if I should invest the 130-150$ more to get the TCL series 6. Waiting for the Costco pricing, pretty sure, it'll be around 720-730, since that's the Bestbuy price actually,
Secured a M55 at 599$ yesterday while waiting...


Do you think it's worth the extra money, considering i'll running Netflix and HD and a few UHD movies on a Android box?

Burlington (Brant/QEW) had 50" ($390) and 55" ($460). Might have had others, those were the only two I noticed.

Based off rtings, 6 series scored a rating of 8 overall, 7.8 for the M and 8.3 for the P. The p is the best tv out of the bunch, but the price is also the most expensive.

I don't think it is worth it as both TVs perform similarly.
