Philips 60" QLED 4K Roku TV (60PQL7656/F7) vs TCL Designer Series 4K QLED Google TV

The TCL Designer Series is the stronger TV for most people: a 120 Hz panel, four HDMI ports, Dolby Vision IQ and Dolby Atmos, plus a flush wall mount and art mode that make it a design piece. The Philips 60PQL7656 is the simpler, cheaper-feeling pick, with Roku's clean interface, a 60 Hz panel and HDR10 only. Owners rate the Philips well (4.5 from over 1,300 ratings), but the TCL's spec sheet is a clear step up for movies and gaming.

  • Choose the Philips 60" QLED Roku TV if you want Roku's simple interface, a 60-inch size that fits a smaller wall, and a set with a long track record of owner ratings.
  • Choose the TCL Designer Series if you want a 120 Hz panel for sports and gaming, Dolby Vision and Atmos, four HDMI ports, and a flush-mount design with art mode.

Questions and answers

Which is better for gaming?
The TCL. Its 120 Hz panel, Game Accelerator 240 and Auto Game Mode give lower latency and smoother motion. The Philips is capped at 60 Hz.
Which has better picture quality?
The TCL, mainly because of Dolby Vision IQ and its high-brightness backlight. The Philips is HDR10 only, so it shows less detail in bright and dark scenes.
Which is easier to use?
The Philips. Roku TV keeps apps and inputs on one simple home screen. Google TV on the TCL is more capable but busier.
Which lasts longer?
Neither brand publishes a lifespan figure. The Philips has a much larger owner base, so its reliability record is easier to judge; the TCL is too new for that.
Is the TCL worth stepping up to?
Yes, if you watch sports or play games, want Dolby Vision and Atmos, or need four HDMI ports. If you mainly stream shows in a smaller room, the Philips covers it.
Do both support voice assistants?
Yes. The Philips works with Siri and Alexa through Roku. The TCL works with Google Assistant, Alexa and Siri through Google TV.
