The TCL 6 Series is a very good 4k TV for a wide range of different usages. In this review, we compare it to 4 other popular models.

Full review: https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/tcl/6-series-2018-r617

The 6 Series is a budget TV which performs well in both dark and bright rooms. It has a high native contrast ratio and decent local dimming, enabling it to produce deep and detailed dark scenes. It also has great peak brightness for producing bright HDR highlights or overcoming glare in a bright room. It is impressive for gaming due to the low input lag and good motion handling, with the addition of a black frame insertion feature to clear up fast motion.

Model tested: 55” (55R617)
Should also be valid for the other 55” (55R615) and 65" (65R615, 65R617) models. Note that the R615 variants including a different remote.

Compare the TCL R617 and Sony X900F
