Manual of product 32S618
Editorial note
The TCL 32S618 presents itself as an interesting option in the field of televisions, offering improved picture quality thanks to its direct LED backlighting technology and dynamic contrast ratio. These features allow for deep blacks and bright whites, ensuring a pleasant viewing experience for standard content. Additionally, its versatile connectivity with multiple HDMI, USB, and Ethernet ports facilitates the integration of various multimedia devices. However, this model has some limitations. With a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels, it may not meet the expectations of users looking for a high-definition viewing experience. Furthermore, a refresh rate of 60 Hz may not be sufficient for fans of sports content or fast-paced video games. The lack of Smart TV features is also a notable drawback, limiting access to streaming apps and online services, which may disappoint some users. In terms of design, the TCL 32S618 stands out with its modern and sleek appearance, featuring a black finish that easily fits into different environments. Despite a reasonable price-to-quality ratio, the audio power of 10 W may seem insufficient for satisfactory sound immersion, especially in larger spaces. Finally, while the weight of 3700 g may complicate installation for some, the construction of the television appears robust and suitable for daily use. In summary, the TCL 32S618 is an interesting choice for those looking for a modestly sized television, with good picture quality and connectivity features, but who do not require the latest innovations in Smart TV or high definition.Score details
