TCL for budget
Samsung for quality

I bought a 55” TCL from Costco for like $325 and it has built in Roku, which is great for me because I don’t have cable. Do some reading up on them online and you’ll see a ton of positive reviews. Pretty hard to beat for the money if you watch tv casually like myself.


Brought my dad to get one. Great picture. Could use a sound bar. Other than that he's super happy and it has been going storm for years.

Hisense 60 inch at Walmart for 228. You have to buy it online and go pick it up.

So I went hastily to Sam's last night and bought a 55 Samsung for like 399 that was originally 449 I think.

Watched the game on it last night, and played around with the picture settings and am not impressed. Seems very dim, especially compared to the Vizio I had until yesterday. Even with the backlight maxxed out and brightness up it's not very bright. Might take it back and switch for one of the TCL's since everyone is talking about those.

I'm a Vizio Stan. Every tv in the house is Vizio and they are all great and reliable.

Get the cheapest one in the size you want


I have noticed ZERO difference in quality of picture from one HD to another and noticed no difference in reliability either

I've had a 37" Vizio for at least 8 years....Wanted something larger so it's a camp TV for outside on the porch, now. Still works fine. I guess I've been fortunate.

You can’t beat the TCL when you consider the price and. Quality you get for that price. Sure you can find a little better picture but you are going to pay a ton for that difference. Technology is advancing so fast it makes no sense to pay a grand or so for a tv. Just buy a 65 TCL for 400 bucks the upgrade again when the technology advances again in a few years

Hook up ya boy



You don't need a Sam's card anymore to get in, so go in and take a look around. You do need one to purchase something but you can find a friend to go with and get them to swipe their card to purchase your item.

Also, you can go to samsclub dotcom and see what they have in-store vs. online.

Tell you what, if my tv crapped my bed I sure wouldn't be looking for another one, I'd be looking for an exorcist.

I'd normally say Costco or Sam's, but Walmart here in Ruston is having a clearance sale, and they had some cheaper than the same model at Sam's.

You'd have to go into the store to get the clearance price. Online, they still show the regular price.
