If you're looking for a TV on a budget, both the TCL S355 and S350G could fit your needs, but there are a few differences to consider. The S355 has three HDMI ports, which could be useful if you have multiple devices to connect, such as game consoles or Blu-ray players. However, the S350G includes voice commands for easier control, which the S355 lacks, but it has no HDMI ports, limiting direct connection options. Both models have similar picture quality and are not ideal for bright rooms or dark rooms, but if accessibility and voice control are more important for you, the S350G could be the better choice. If connectivity is a priority, consider the S355, assuming the higher price is within your budget. Give Feedback

About TCL

TCL, the highly recognizable TV brand from China, has firmly established itself as the second-largest manufacturer in terms of sales volume. Renowned for striking an impressive balance between affordability, picture quality, and design, TCL TVs deliver a compelling overall package. While they have traditionally excelled in the low-end and midrange TV segments, TCL has recently made remarkable strides in the realm of high-end televisions, introducing impressive models that rival top competitors. Most TCL TVs use Roku software which is very user friendly and easy to use, but they have a few other models that use Google TV which has the largest app selection, but is not as user friendly as Roku.
