Why you should buy the TCL Class S5 Series

Whether you’re a casual TV watcher or someone who enjoys playing the occasional video game, the TCL S5 Series achieves a bright and colorful picture that holds up well in rooms with sun exposure and other ambient light sources. TCL’s AIPQ Processor with Deep AI Learning also does a great job at enhancing and upscaling whatever sources you feed your TV, so everything from your favorite 4K HDR Netflix films to your old TCM DVDs gets a fresh coat of paint! 

The TCL S5 Series only has a native 60Hz refresh rate, but TCL’s Game Accelerator 120 kicks in to provide a bit less input lag. The TV also supports VRR and ALLM for an improved gaming experience

On top of class-leading HDR support and a solid selection of apps and other web-connected features through the built-in Google TV OS. While there’s no local dimming to speak of and a lack of other advanced picture features, the TCL S5 Series brings a lot to the table for such a low price. 

Purchase today to take advantage of the $250 sale price. You should also take a quick peek at our lists of the best TCL TV deals, best QLED TV deals, and best TV deals for even more discounts on top TCL products!

I was skeptical of clip-style open earbuds. After trying my first pair, I don’t want to go back
No pressure, no plugged-up feeling, no fatigue. After months of all-day wear, open-air audio earclips have earned a permanent spot in my routine.
Baseus Bowie MC2 earclip earbuds.

I am not what you would call an audiophile. I don't obsess over terms like LDAC and DSEE upscaling. For me, they're just another utilitarian gadget to get the job done. Somewhere along the way, however, I stopped judging earbuds purely on how they sound and started paying closer attention to how naturally they fit into an ordinary day.

So much of this category now chases bass, noise cancellation, and a spec sheet full of features that comfort has quietly become an afterthought. I recently got a chance to try the Baseus Bowie MC2, my first pair of earclip-style earbuds. It came as a revelation for me. I picked them up from Amazon at $40, so it wasn't a big hit on my wallet either. The leap of faith, I'd say, was well worth it.
