TCL vs Hisense UHD TV, which should I choose?

[Vodka]

Not me. I agree TVs aren't that relevant to me anymore. But, I take my Live TV with me via mobile. I watch my DirecTV more on my iPad Mini 2 than my regular TV.

yeah i should've said big TV's coz smaller screens are still quite useful (like my kitchen TV). right now i don't think it's worth buying a 50" especially one w/ a lot of tech that could become obsolete very quickly

We have a 32" Hisense TV in the kitchen. We bought it back in 2014. It has smart features. But, we only use it as a regular TV because Hisense tends to be a little slow in releasing software updates *grrrr* Netflix *grrrr*. It also lags a bit in games when I hook up (via HDMI) my laptop to it.

Otherwise, the image quality is excellent. It's only 720p and 1080i. But, unlike older 720p TVs, it can take a 1080p signal and downscale it to 720p. For example, if I hook up my laptop to my older 720p TV, 1080p is not a valid resolution. But, if I hook up the Hisense TV, 1080p can be selected. It looks ugly. But, at least it's usable.

Probably better to buy a regular 50" flat-screen TV and have the smart features on a separate box such as ROKU or, in our case, an old PS3.

Mirror feature? If you mean hooking up my laptop..... The only thing required is an HDMI cable. I don't usually mirror the laptop display. I prefer to extend the display across two screens.

I actually hooked up my laptop to the Hisense TV last year.

I sometimes hook up my laptop to the Hisense TV when the wife wants to watch YouTube videos while she's in the kitchen.

Screen Mirroring nowadays refers to directly casting your phone's screen to your TV. On non-smart TVs, you can do this with a Chromecast.

It's what I do on our 10 year old Sony TV - I just use Chromecast to stream videos from my phone to the TV.

Newer TVs have screen mirroring built in already.

i have a 48" TCL smart tv for 2 years na no problem so far. quality is quite close to the lg smart tv. i dont use smart tv function at all kasi ang bagal ng interface compared to a laptop or cellphone. so as mentioned here i use the screen mirror function if i want to watch it on the bigger screen.

Just close the LID of your laptop so you will not destruct while watching

I can choose to have the Hisense TV as the only screen and turn off the laptop screen. If I disconnect the former, the laptop automatically reverts back to the builtin screen.

My own reason for hooking up the laptop to the Hisense TV is because the 14" laptop screen is a too small when making diagrams with Microsoft Visio. It's hard to see the small text labels.
