Buying a TV for gaming is different to buying a TV for general viewing. Kind of how purchasing a high-performance sports car is different from buying a family sedan. They’ll both get you where you want to go, but one has much more power under the hood. There are some important features to look for to keep you in pole position and TCL covers them all with their latest range of game-ready TVs. Packed with technology to help you level up, TCL TVs let you enjoy your favourite video games with incredible clarity and sound – so you can play to win every time.
You bet they are! Especially for gamers! In fact, according to John Milonas, The Good Guys Buyer – Televisions and Accessories, TCL is much more than just an affordable brand. “TCL actually makes TV parts for other brands and they’re experts in manufacturing screens. TCL is one of the world’s largest TV screen manufacturers. Buying your TV from the company that makes them can save you money while getting all those nice-to-have features for your gaming teen, or for playing to win after work.”
When it comes to a gaming TV, the most important feature to look for is a high variable refresh rate. That means the number of frames your screen can show per second, or the difference between buttery smooth graphics and getting sniped by a player you couldn’t see.
Next, look for a strong game mode, which sets the TV to show the best possible picture for games, adjusting the HDR brightness, unlocking the refresh rate and boosting the audio.
If you want the best gaming TV for you (or your tween or teen), these are the top TCL TVs you need to upgrade your experience and always win on game night:
The TCL Mini LED 75” Google TV gives you big-ticket features without blowing the budget. It has both Quantum Dot and Mini LED for optimum brightness and dimming capabilities to compete with top-of-the-line OLED TVs. On top of that, this particular TCL smart TV has auto low latency mode (for smooth, lag-free viewing and interactivity that gamers love), an impressive 144Hz variable refresh rate and Dolby Atmos surround sound technology with a built-in subwoofer.
The TCL C735 QLED 65” Google TV has 4K UHD with both Dolby Vision IQ and HDR10+. HDR (High-dynamic range) TVs allow for video and still images with much greater brightness and contrast, and better colour accuracy. Many streaming services and PlayStation 5 prefer HDR10, which is why it’s on so many TVs, but many of the big Xbox games are made for Dolby Vision. Having both is a huge benefit.
It also has Dolby Atmos audio, Google TV (for all your TCL smart TV needs and streaming services) and hands-free voice control. Plus, there’s a size to suit every home, including 65”, 75” and 98”, all at reasonable prices.
The TCL C835 Mini LED 55” Google TV has something few other TVs have: a built-in subwoofer. When it comes to games, most of the truly important audio cues are in the bass, like soft footsteps and revving cars. The C835 can reproduce all of that with Dolby Atmos audio.
On top of that, it has a 144Hz variable refresh rate (VRR)* and Hands-Free voice control, truly bringing the future to your living room. Available in 55”, 65” and 75”.
Looking for a smart buy for the kids’ playroom that also delivers fantastic images and sound? The TCL C635 4K QLED Google TV is the one. Achieve up to a 120Hz refresh rate from a 60Hz panel for smoother game visuals**. Plus with Dolby Atmos audio, HDR 10+ and Google TV, they’ll be happy honing their gaming skills, while your wallet can breathe a sigh of relief. Available in 43”, 50”, 55”, 65” and 75” sizes.
Featuring both HDR10 and Dolby Vision is the brand-new TCL QLED 4K Google TV C635. It’s bursting with all the latest features, such as 4K QLED, Dolby Atmos audio, Google TV, and Hands Free Voice Control, as well as the AiPQ Engine the powerful processor which uses AI (Artificial Intelligence) to upscale picture and audio to ensure everything looks and sounds its best. Available in 43”, 50”, 55”, 65” and 75” sizes.
If you are new to TCL, you might have a few questions. For instance Is TCL a good TV? And, is TCL a good brand? Absolutely, they are. Who makes TCL TVs? That would be TCL, one of the six largest TV manufacturers worldwide. And, where are TCL TVs made?
China. If you have already joined the TCL club, these tips and tricks will help you get the most out of your TCL TV.
Easy! Turn off your TV and unplug it. Wait until all status lights have gone out. Wait one to two minutes before plugging it back in and restarting your TV. Repeat the process on your remote by removing and replacing the batteries. Still not working? Check for loose or damaged cables at the back of the TV.
Thanks to the built-in Chromecast with TCL’s 2022 Google TV series, all you need is to have a Chrome browser installed on your computer, then click the vertical 3-dot button on the top right corner to select the TV you want to cast to. Within seconds, you'll have your computer screen mirrored on your TV.
Search for your network under your TV's Network settings (in the Settings menu), select it, and enter your Wi-Fi password. Can’t find your Wi-Fi network? Check that your Wi-Fi router is on and transmitting. It might be necessary to reset it and make sure it has the latest firmware. Still no connection? Try to connect another device, like a smartphone. If other devices can connect to Wi-Fi, contact TLC Customer Support.
Whether you’re scouting for a TCL QUHD TV, TCL Full HD TV, TCL QLED or TCL Mini-LED set, head in store or online to explore the great range of TCL high-performance televisions at The Good Guys.
