Editorial note

The TCL 55P616 stands out for its exceptional picture quality, thanks to its 4K Ultra HD resolution and high contrast ratio, providing sharp images and vibrant colors. Connectivity is also a strong point, with multiple HDMI and USB ports and Bluetooth compatibility, making it easy to connect various multimedia devices. Additionally, its advanced audio features, including built-in decoders like Dolby Atmos and DTS, ensure an immersive sound experience. However, this model has some drawbacks. The lack of advanced smart features limits access to streaming apps and the Internet, which may restrict its use compared to other modern televisions. Furthermore, although the resolution is 4K, the native refresh rate of 60 Hz may not satisfy demanding users, particularly those who prioritize video games or live sports. Regarding energy efficiency, the TCL 55P616 has an efficiency class rated E for SDR modes and G for HDR modes, which can lead to relatively high energy consumption. Additionally, its weight of 17.4 kg without a stand can complicate its installation and transport, especially for a single person. The lack of support for certain advanced HDR formats may also limit picture quality for some optimized content. In summary, the TCL 55P616 is a television offering excellent picture quality and strong audio features, but it could benefit from improvements in smart connectivity and energy efficiency to meet the expectations of modern users.
