Google TV is a streamlined version of the Android TV platform on Hisense TVs, retaining all of its features, with a menu system that’s more content-focused than primarily driven by app selection. While most of TCL’s smart TVs use the Roku TV platform, the 55R646 uses Google TV for its interface. The Hisense U8G series is brighter, but otherwise TCL's Google TV 6-Series packs the same excellent features for about the same price, earning our Editors' Choice award alongside the Hisense model. And they seem to pack a few engineering improvements over the Roku models, with stronger contrast performance and lower input lag. They’re priced around same as the Roku TV 4K 6-Series models (the 55-inch 55R646 we tested retails for $949.99), and offer strong app and service support, Google Cast screen mirroring, and hands-free Google Assistant (though they give up the Apple AirPlay support included in Roku TV). Now TCL offers an alternative in the form of its Google TV 4K 6-Series TVs. These TVs have all exclusively run on the Roku TV platform, which is an accessible and simple interface, but not the most feature-heavy one. TCL has consistently impressed us with its 6-Series TVs, which offer strong performance at reasonable prices. TCL expects its Google TV models to become available again in the coming weeks, and we will reevaluate our rating at that time. We didn’t experience this issue in testing, but in light of the TV’s unavailability, we have removed our original 4.5-star rating and Editors' Choice designation from this review. Our customers will see marked improvements in the weeks to come and their patience is appreciated.' Our high-performance TVs are constantly evolving and recent software updates have allowed us to make significant progress, but we are continuing to refine our products featuring Google TV.
