TCL S3
Score: 65/100Rankings
The VIZIO D-Series 24-inch TV offers a Full Array LED panel and ultra-low input lag, making it a strong choice for compact spaces and casual gamers. Its main drawbacks are the limited 1080p resolution and a SmartCast UI that can be sluggish. Ideal for kitchens, bedrooms, or secondary displays where size and gaming responsiveness matter.
The TCL 32-inch S3 offers Full HD resolution, HDR10 support and Google TV with voice assistants, making it a solid budget smart TV. Its low brightness and high input lag limit performance in bright rooms and fast-motion content. Best suited for small spaces and users who prioritize streaming and voice control over gaming or high-end picture quality.

Professional reviewers commend the VIZIO D-Series 24-inch TV for its standout contrast, low gaming latency and generous free streaming lineup, positioning it as an elite performer in the compact Full-HD segment, though they note the SmartCast interface lags behind rival platforms and the lack of 4K limits its appeal for future-proof buyers.
Everyday owners consistently praise the clear 1080p picture, abundant free channels and the handy remote, while the most common complaints revolve around the small screen size, occasional remote inconsistencies and the absence of 4K resolution.
Professional reviewers acknowledge the TCL S3's decent 1080p picture and HDR support, as well as its convenient Google TV and voice integration, but criticize its low peak brightness, weak image processing, high input lag, and lack of advanced gaming features, ultimately labeling the model as disappointing overall.
Everyday users like the clear HD picture, easy Google TV setup, sleek bezel-less look, and Bluetooth audio convenience, yet many complain about noticeable lag, glitchy performance, and insufficient brightness for bright environments, leading to mixed satisfaction.
