This means you should be able to tell the TV to launch a particular app. Whether you will be able to switch the TV on and off using your voice remains to be seen. The ability to switch the TV on and off with your voice is a feature we have seen in the Sony A9G OLED TV. The TV needs to be powered and on standby for it to work.
Coming back to the TCL 4K P715 Android TV, thanks to the Android TV platform, users can also control their smart home appliances that are compatible with the Google Assistant using the TV. The TV also supports HDR 10 but does not support Dolby Vision.

The TV also boasts of Micro Dimming, 4K upscaling and support for Dolby Audio. In addition to the remote control, users will be able to use the MagiConnect app on their smartphone to control the features of the TV. Users will also be able to take screenshots and share them on social media, cast content to the TV and vice versa, making it possible for users to cast video and audio from the TV to the smartphone. The app will also let you control basic TV functions and use the smartphone as a keyboard, in case you need to type in text on the TV. We know how annoying typing in a password on the TV can be using the remote control.
The TV also boasts of TCL Contents Channel. According to TCL, “TCL Contents Channel’s interface is designed in a waterfall, continuous stream layout aggregating massive local and international content, feeding endless personalized recommendations to viewers – including movies, TV shows, games, and apps.”
