The Google smarts also make setup an easy process, getting the TV on your home network and walking you through how to use the remote control for voice activation. Unpacking and setting up was easy enough with the 55-incher there’s one two-person lift to raise the TV from its box, but all edges are somewhat excessively protected by plastic film so you can safely lean it down while attaching the central stand, an easy six-screw operation.Īudio support: Dolby Atmos, Dolby Digital, DTS The remote control is worthy of praise, kept nicely simple, with those six service-specific one-touch keys and a top circle to activate voice control. As is TCL’s habit, those connections are all on the right side, which may hamper those who are replacing a TV with the more common left-side connections. The Mini LED backlighting prevents real wafter-thinness in depth, but the top third of the TV nevertheless extends only 3cm deep, doubling to 6cm for the bottom section with circuits and connections. The TCL C835 is almost bezel-less, with a teeny 2-3mm picture surround and a thicker 1cm bottom bezel. This year we gather that the European and UK versions of the C835 will be technically identical (the previous C825 had a key difference in the UK), while Australia got to meet the new range first, with the C835 range officially available from 1 June 2022. TCL’s televisions can differ by market, especially between UK/Europe and the models that appear in the US and Australia. (Image credit: TechRadar) TCL C835: price and release date
