HBO today is a go (but not Go, which died, of course). 2020, when two companies reached an agreement. The only major app missing from the bunch at launch was HBO Max, an issue that resolved itself Dec. Happily Roku TV supports everything from Netflix, Hulu, Sling TV and Amazon, to lesser-known channels like, tubi, Crackle and others.
Because Roku doesn’t have ties to a major streaming service – other than a vague deal to include FandangoNow on the home screen of the OS – it doesn’t push you any direction you don’t want to go. The search bit is important, especially if you’ve ever used an Apple TV or Amazon Fire TV, both of which would much rather have you stream from their ancillary streaming services over any of the third-party ones. Like previous years, the TCL 6-Series R635 uses Roku TV, an egalitarian smart TV platform that has a fair and robust search feature and most of the major streaming apps. The TCL 6-Series in the middle of the living room. The only real change this time around is that there’s now a button for Disney Plus, which is probably better for most folks than ESPN+ that was there before. The remote that ships with the TV is similar to the Roku remotes that have shipped with past models, but it gets the job done. Note, of course, that these aren't HDMI 2.1 ports that can carry 4K/120Hz or 8K signals – but 4K/60 or 1440p/120 is still very much possible here. Among them you’ve got ethernet, four HDMI 2.0b ports, one with eARC support, plus an AV In port that takes your standard composite (Red-White-Yellow RCA) input, USB and optical audio. Spin it around and you’ll find a solid selection of ports.
Speaking of the legs, one neat addition this year is the ability to weave cables through the legs themselves, creating a less chaotic space free from wires. The legs of the TV can either be placed close together to fit on a smaller table or stand, or can be attached to the outside corners of the TV to give it some more stability. That may feel like a potshot, but the 6-Series R635 is fairly chunky for an LED-LCD screen, and can’t touch the ultra-slim profile of an OLED.ĭespite not being incredibly slim, the nearly bezel-less design of the TV is fairly versatile. The TCL 6-Series has a lot going for it in terms of design (see: that Mini-LED backlight), but it’s not exactly an art piece the way Samsung’s The Frame is, either.
