The competition for TV in the middle pricing band is heating, and the Plus series is the latest entrant for 2023. Unlike TCL Roku TVS, this is Roku, and there is no other brand. It adds several upgraded extra features, including QLED and FULL-ARRAY LOCAL DIMMing, which, for example, helps provide better pictures compared to the TCL 4 series. It’s not as impressive as the Vizio MQX, though, as it lacks 120Hz gaming and has poor image quality overall. If you value these extras, Vizio is worth saving, but if it’s not the Roku Plus series, it’s worth it very well.
This is the first TV show Roku has made under his own brand, rather than working with brands like TCL, Sharp, Pioneer or Hessense. The company also released a version with less features without a local survey called Roku Select Series.

Image quality of TCL 4 Series Roku TVs lags behind our Vizio V Series Budget TV Testbut the difference between the two is small, and you do have to set them side by side to fully notice anything. These 4 Series lack Dolby Vision with variable refresh rates, Bluetooth connectivity and AMD FreeSync, all of which offer all the features Vizio has to offer.
Compared to the Vizio, the 4 Series has the advantage of it being paired with an excellent Roku smart TV system built in. It is a great choice for those looking for a one-stop smart TV solution that doesn’t have to add an external streaming device.
Note that TCL has been selling the 4 Series over the past few years, but in our testing, the image quality or functionality has barely changed, although it has recently added some larger screen sizes, including the 85-inch option.

With all the TVs today, and all the technical terms and jargon related to TV technology, it’s hard to figure out what matters. Here is a quick guide to help get rid of the confusion.
price: TV prices range from $100 to over $2,000. Smaller screens are cheaper, well-known brands are more expensive, and spending more money can also bring you better image quality. Most entry-level TVs are good enough for most people, but the TV lasts for a long time, so it may be worth spending more time getting better pictures. When the price is low, it is best to buy a TV in the fall.
Screen size: Greater in our books. We recommend that the bedroom TV be at least 43 inches in size, while the living room or main TV is at least 55 inches-preferably 65 inches or larger. More “features” that tighten up on TV screen size can be more of your money than any other “features”. One of the most common TV post-holiday complaints we hear is from people who aren’t big enough. And we hardly ever hear people complain about their TVs being too big.
ability: In entry-level TVs, the most important feature is the smart TV system used by the TV. In the mid-range model, looking for a feature that includes full array local dimming, mini-leading, and a 120Hz refresh rate, which (unlike other additional features) really helps improve our experience. In high-end TVs, OLED technology is your best choice.
