Manual of product 55UC6596
Editorial note
The Thomson 55UC6596 stands out with its 55-inch 4K Ultra HD screen, offering exceptional image quality that ensures an immersive viewing experience. Its direct LED display technology provides vibrant colors and deep contrasts, enhancing the content being viewed. Additionally, connectivity is a major asset with three HDMI ports, allowing for the connection of various multimedia devices and easy access to popular applications like Netflix and YouTube. However, some drawbacks deserve to be highlighted. The lack of Smart TV features limits access to the Internet and streaming services, thus restricting entertainment options. Furthermore, the screen brightness of 270 cd/m² may not be sufficient in very bright environments, which can detract from the viewing experience. While the sound power of 20 W is acceptable, it may not satisfy users looking for an optimal cinematic audio experience. Finally, the weight of 14.6 kg can complicate the transport and installation of this model. Overall, the Thomson 55UC6596 offers a fair value for money, but the absence of certain advanced features and audio quality may disappoint some users. The modern design and VESA mount capability add a touch of elegance, although the weight may pose challenges during installation.Score details
