Read MoreI had an opportunity to compare and test two great devices from TCL - TCL 49S405 vs 55S405. These two models belong to the same series – S405, which also includes other great solutions. These two models are 2017 year models, but they have many great features. Both models belong to the mid-low price range – they cost less than $400. These TVs belong to the class of Smart TVs. Both models have LCD display installed and they use the Direct LED backlight technology.
Both models support the modern 4K standard. Colors are vibrant due to using of the HDE10 technology. The native refresh rate is 120 Hz which means you get no motion blurring during action scenes.
These TVs are powered by powerful processors which guarantee lag-free video playing and the short response time. Both TVs use the Roku TV feature to allow you to access various streaming channels. The UI is simple and you can easily find what you want. These models come with a super-simple Roku TV remote controller that has only 20 buttons. The buttons are quite big so you will not press something accidentally. There is a separate application for your tablet or phone. The built-in Wi-Fi module guarantees a stable connection.
Here is where the difference between TCL 55S405 vs 49S405 becomes apparent - 49S405 has a 49 in a screen, while 55S405 has a 55 in a screen. Both models look modern, they are slim. They have a very narrow bezel. These TVs have Y-shaped stands, but they can be also wall-mounted.
The dimensions are 43.7x27.7x8.5 in for 49S405 versus 49.1x30.8x8.7 in for 55S405. So if you need a bigger TV, then consider getting 55S405. Both models have 3 HDMI ports and 1 USB port.
