Reviews of TCL 40S325 40 Inch 1080p Smart LED Roku TV (2019)

Very happy
I first want to say that I read through about an hour of reviews before deciding to purchase this TV. Fully understanding that sometimes you get what you pay for. I've waited almost a week to write this review because I wanted to give myself time to fully evaluate this TV. I give it 5 stars for price and quality. I'm very
happy I took a chance to try a lesser known brand over the bigger names. The things that stand out the most that other people complained about are 1) no volume buttons on the remote. Not true. They are on the side of the remote. 2) having to enter your credit card for the Roku account. Also not true. At the bottom there is an option "skip this step" so you do not have to enter any payment information. 3) some people complained about the sound and picture quality. If you go into the settings, you can change all of those things to your liking. There's even a "game mode". So overall, I'm extremely happy and I would reccomend this TV to anyone who is looking for a great TV at an even better price.

 Great as a computer monitor
I purchased a TCL 32s301 ROKU tv to use as a multi computer monitor in my office. It was only 720P but I was impressed by the quality of the picture. I do not do much gaming just an occasional flight sim. So when I saw this TCL 32s327 was 1080P I thought to purchase it for my wife who plays lots of games on her computer. The good points about this TV: excellent picture quality, ROKU, WIFI, great customer support from TCL (contacted for general questions and received answers within a couple of hours), thin bezel, 3 HDMI ports, USB port and excellent price for quality and features.
The bad: It was not free but compared to what I have paid for dedicated 1080P monitors of less size and quality in the past it was almost free.

The bottom line: this is a reasonably priced Tv with great features, great picture and overall good quality. It is a really good computer monitor. I highly recommend.

So very happy!!
I was looking for something nice for my room that was reasonably priced. I'm so happy I found this tv. The smart portion is very easy to use and the setup took about 20 min fairly quick. I use Netflix, YouTube and I have my direct TV on here also. The picture is very clear and I got a little soundbar to go with it. Nice bang for my buck. This is a great TV for a small room. I got the 40 for my living room and the 32 for my room. :) 32 is pictured!

So simple to program and install
I’m a 63 year old lady who is 100% oxygen dependent. I had this 49 inch smart TV up and running on my mantle within 25 minutes. It’s a little heavy for me since I am short and I weigh 136 pounds. Honestly I was worried at first. Anyway I put the feet on lifted it into my mantle plugged in the HDMI and power cords. Followed the directions with my iPhone and it works beautifully!!!! The price was reasonable and the Roku remote is easy. I downloaded the remote onto my iPhone so if my cousin looses it I will still be able to use the remote by using my phone. The picture quality so far is awesome. Sounds great. I hope to order one for my daughter in a few months!!!!! If I experience any difficulties I will try to post it if anything occurs. Great buy !!!!

Great buy
For the price this tv is excellent. Yes I know it is only 1080p and Roku platform but for a bedroom tv it looks great and functions perfectly. For sub $200 I feel I got more than what I paid for and thats always a plus Add a firestick and it's perfect. Edit: a wall mount for this is also a great addition.

Easy to set up easy to use
I have purchased two of these 32" Roku TVs. I originally bought on for my guest room and I like it enough to give one as a gift to some friends. This small TV weighs very little and the feet are not all that stable so I used some U-hoo tac putty under the feet in case the cabinet (which has wheels) gets moved. To set it up all you need is a Phillips head screw driver and the CORRECT password for your wi-fi. It does not have an Ethernet plug, it only connects with wifi. You will need access to the internet (computer, tablet or phone) to set up your account (free) and type in the activation code on line. That's it. Once activated you have lots and lots of things to watch and lots are free. Apparently you can add an external antenna for off the air shows and even use it as a computer monitor. I have not tried those features.
When you start up the TV it will search for your Wi-fi. Identify the correct wi-fi and make sure you type in the correct password. There is a set up video on their website if you need help. If you get two green check marks it will do any updating that is needed and when done, you are ready to explore new video choices. If you don't get two green check marks your password is not correct. Either you got the upper or lower case wrong, typed it wrong or it was changed by "someone" in your household. My friend was trying to set up his TV and was not getting the green check marks. His wife came home and gave him the current password to the wi-fi and it then connected just fine.

Fantastic TV for the price
Over the years, I've had many LED TV's of all different brands. I was a brand snob a few years back and always got Samsung but with time and age, I realized the quality difference isn't that substantial. I opted for the TCL 49 inch 1080p Smart Roku LED TV because it was 280 dollars. For the price, you couldn't beat the competition.

After having this TV for about a month, I can safely say it works perfectly. The image quality is wonderful, the native Roku app built in comes with all the apps I could ever want and need + the size and weight of the TV is amazing for moving it.

Never again will I buy a tv priced more than what I “need” and I can’t see myself jumping to a more expensive brand for the same results. This TV will not disappoint.
