The best way to compare TVs is to put them next to each other and look at them using the same content, so we do just that with the budget models we test. We also consider how they perform in relation to the more expensive TVs we test for our best LCD/LED TV guide.

The most important thing you can do to get the best performance from any TV is to set it up correctly. For the TCL 5-Series, we recommend using the Movie picture mode and reducing the sharpness control to zero. In our tests, we preferred Contrast Control Zones (local-dimming control) set to high, as the low and medium settings offered little improvement (if any) over leaving it disabled. Other image-processing functions, such as Dynamic Contrast, should be disabled, as they actually cause the TV to lose dynamic range. The Natural Cinema function should be enabled so that the TV produces motion that is accurate for TV shows and movies. You should disable all of the Auto Power options in the System Power menu.

Full-array local-dimming backlight: This term refers to a TV technology in which the backlight is behind the LCD panel and has individual zones that can turn on and off depending on the content. Such TVs are usually larger and more expensive to build and design, and more zones cost more. However, TVs with full-array local dimming typically provide the best LCD picture quality by improving contrast ratios and shadow detail.
