Manual of product 55EP640W
Editorial note
The TCL 55EP640W stands out for its exceptional image quality thanks to its 4K Ultra HD resolution, providing an immersive visual experience ideal for watching movies and gaming. Its modern and sleek design, combined with a rollable screen and ambient lighting, adds a warm touch to any interior. Moreover, its low energy consumption in standby mode and its A+ energy efficiency class help reduce electricity costs while being environmentally friendly. However, this television has some limitations. The lack of Smart TV features restricts access to streaming apps and the Internet, which may disappoint users looking for a variety of online entertainment options. Additionally, the screen brightness, while adequate, is 260 cd/m², which can pose visibility issues in very bright environments. The native refresh rate of 60 Hz may not be suitable for demanding gamers, especially for high-speed content. Finally, although the television has several HDMI and USB ports, the limited number of USB ports (2) may be problematic for those wishing to connect multiple devices simultaneously. In summary, the TCL 55EP640W offers excellent image quality and an attractive design, but its limitations in connectivity and smart features may not meet the needs of all users.Score details
