TCL is one of the well-known companies when it comes to TVs and most of the models from the brand come running the Roku operating system. However, the company has been expanding the options for its users and has added models with Android TV as well.

In line with that, earlier this year, the company announced its plan of selling TVs running the Google TV operating system. The devices were recently made available for purchase through Best Buy but now they are being pulled out.

TCL has now pulled all the four models — 50-inch (50S546), 55-inch (55S546), 65-inch (65S546), and 75inch (75S546) from the stores because of the performance and software related issues on the devices.

In a statement, the company said: “TCL is committed to delivering premium products with world-class experiences and the new product featuring Google TV is certainly no different. However, it has come to our attention that some are facing challenges with the stability of the user interface featured on TCL sets with Google TV. Our high-performance TVs are constantly evolving and recent software updates have allowed us to make significant progress, but we are continuing to refine our products featuring Google TV. Our customers will see marked improvements in the weeks to come and their patience is appreciated.”

For the existing users of these TV models, TCL says that the users can install the latest available updates and the process has been explained on the support page.

Apart from the software issues, the Google TV-powered models have been quite good and most of the reviews are also good, except for the software issues. We can just hope that TCL fixes the issues as soon as possible so that those who have already bought these models can start having a good experience when using them.
