Editorial note

The TCL 32SF540 is a television that stands out for its exceptional picture quality, thanks to its Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. The details are sharp and the colors vibrant, providing an immersive visual experience. Its modern and sleek design, with VESA mounting, allows for seamless integration into various spaces. However, this model has some drawbacks. Its energy efficiency class is G for SDR and F for HDR, indicating relatively high energy consumption, which could lead to higher electricity bills. Additionally, the lack of Smart TV features limits access to streaming applications, which may disappoint users looking for a complete entertainment experience. The refresh rate of 60 Hz may also pose a problem for gaming enthusiasts, resulting in blurring or stuttering effects. Regarding features, the TCL 32SF540 offers interesting technologies like HDR10 and versatile connectivity with HDMI and USB ports. However, the limited number of HDMI ports (only 2) could pose challenges for those wishing to connect multiple devices simultaneously. The audio features are advanced, with Dolby Audio and DTS decoders, but the absence of a built-in subwoofer limits sound immersion. In summary, the TCL 32SF540 is a good choice for those looking for a television with solid picture quality and an elegant design, but it may not meet the expectations of users seeking advanced features and optimal energy efficiency.
