In terms of design, the Thomson 42FU4253 is modern and sleek, with a VESA 200 x 200 mm mounting bracket that facilitates wall installation, thus optimizing space. Despite its sturdiness, its weight of 13.6 kg can make transport and installation more difficult, especially for a single person. In summary, this television offers good value for money with interesting features, but the limitations in connectivity and audio power may not meet the expectations of all users.
