Our Verdict

TCL 4 Series 2019

TCL S325

The TCL 4 Series 2019 is much better than the TCL S325. The TCL 4 Series supports HDR and has a better dark room performance, thanks to its higher native contrast ratio. The TCL 4 Series supports 4k and has a faster response time, which is great for watching sports and playing video games.
