Our Verdict
Vizio V Series 2020
TCL 4 Series/S435 2020
The Vizio V Series 2020 is better than the TCL 4 Series/S435 2020. The Vizio has better reflection handling, a slightly quicker response time, and lower input lag. However, the TCL upscales 480p and 720p content better, and the built-in Roku TV is less laggy and has an app store compared to Vizio's SmartCast system.
