I've used Fire TV Sticks and the Fire TV before it was the silly pendant thing you can buy nowadays. Thought they were great devices, but had an interest in replacing a TV and figured "why not have it integrated?" It was between the Roku-powered TCL 5-series that never made it down to a price point I had
to buy, and then came the Prime Day deal on the 43". I was replacing a Samsung 40" LCD that's 10+ years
BUY NOWold, so ironically the footprint of the 43" was slightly smaller. Picture quality is plenty fine and the app integration is nice. I was pleasantly surprised with the integration of the TV antenna and HDMI inputs, very smooth and I like the instant preview of the tuner in the interface without having to truly switch to it.
I'm a PlayStation Vue user for my TV streaming, so Amazon TV's app is one of the more polished options, a major reason why I wasn't terribly sad over not getting the Roku-powered TV. I don't see any slowness in the interface (something I'm used to seeing in the Fire TV Sticks...wasn't sure if it'd possibly be a thing with the Fire TV integration or not). My MiBox 3 (recently received the Oreo Update) will run Vudu at 4k Dolby Vision on it, so it really is capable and behaving as advertised.
As long as you aren't expecting super high end performance at this price range, I don't think you'd be disappointed with it.
