The TCL 65C835 will seduce you with its excellent display quality, its contrast ratio, its maximum frequency of 144 Hz and its quality sound. We love its central stand with two height positions and its two remote controls, one of which has a microphone. We would have liked more HDMI 2.1 ports. Attention, reflections are visible in broad daylight. If you’re looking for a high-performance and affordable mini LED LCD TV, the TCL 65C835 might be perfect for you.

Acer Swift Edge: an ultrabook combining power and lightness
For less than 1500 euros, you could be tempted by this ultrabook with a large format and reduced weight. We love the display quality of its OLED screen and its Full HD Webcam. If you are looking for a high-performance laptop, the Swift Edge could therefore seduce you, because it is powered by an efficient AMD chip. That being said, autonomy is very limited and we regret the absence of a numeric keypad. Note that the Swift Edge does not have a microSD card reader.
