Overview

The TCL 32S325 is a renewed 32-inch LED TV built around the Roku smart TV platform, designed for users who want simple, affordable access to streaming content. The built-in Roku interface provides a clean, intuitive experience with access to over 500,000 movies and TV episodes across popular streaming services — no external streaming stick or box required. Compatibility with both Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant adds voice control convenience, letting you search for content, adjust volume, or switch inputs using voice commands through a connected smart speaker.

The 720p HD resolution delivers an acceptable picture for the 32-inch screen size, though it won't match the sharpness of 1080p or 4K sets, particularly with detailed content or when used as a computer display. Connectivity is solid for its class, with three HDMI 2.0 ports supporting HDCP 2.2, one of which includes ARC for simplified soundbar connections. A USB port handles direct playback of a wide range of video, audio, and photo file formats. Measuring 28.8 x 19 x 6.8 inches with the stand, the compact footprint makes this TV ideal for bedrooms, kitchens, dorm rooms, or as a secondary display in a studio or office setup.
