Product Overview

TCL S330 is an entry-level VA TV in TCL's 2020 lineup. It is powered by a basic 8-bit VA panel and available in 32" and 40" size classes. The smaller and larger sizes come in WXGA and FHD resolutions respectively.
A highlight of the TCL S330 is a high screen-to-body ratio up to 90.96%. Additionally, it supports HDR formats including HDR. It performs very well in delivering contrast.
In terms of drawbacks, the TCL S330 is limited to FHD, which to all intents and purposes is archaic. It has a slow 6.0 ms response time. It suffers from very low brightness. The 8-bit panel is rather limiting in terms of image quality.
