Editorial note

The TCL 55EP680 is a television that stands out with its 55-inch 4K Ultra HD screen, offering exceptional picture quality that ensures an immersive viewing experience. Its LCD display technology, combined with a fast response time of 10 ms, provides appreciable smoothness for movies and games, although professional gamers may experience some latency during intense sessions. In terms of design, the model features a modern look with VESA mounting, making it easy to integrate into various spaces. Additionally, it offers varied connectivity with three HDMI ports, one USB port, as well as wireless connection options via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, allowing for easy connection of multiple devices. The audio system, with Dolby decoders, contributes to an enriching sound experience. However, there are a few drawbacks to note. The lack of Smart TV features limits access to streaming apps and the Internet, thus restricting entertainment options. Furthermore, its energy efficiency class is relatively low (class G for HDR and class F for SDR), which may lead to higher energy costs in the long run. The native refresh rate of 60 Hz may also not provide the desired smoothness for high-speed content, such as sports events. In summary, the TCL 55EP680 offers good value for money, especially for those looking for a television with excellent picture quality and a modern design, while keeping in mind certain limitations in terms of features and energy efficiency.
