As a result I purchased a Logitech Harmony remote (which is what TCL recommends as the most compatible) only to find out the number pad on it does not work either

The problem with it is it does not support using a number pad

Why not include a number pad for antenna/ satellite?

Based on the reviews (here at Amazon, as well as at other retailers such as Walmart & BestBuy

I'd say the blacks are not as great as on a couple of other TV

Anything else on the market that isn't an OLED screen is more expensive and their Smart Services don't work nearly as smoothly

Only has 3 HDMI ports, but that's fine as you can use an HDMI switch if needed

, It works perfectly an for a great price.

Played 4K HDR from streaming as well as from bluray player, amazing brightness and clarity

I have purchased a total of 5 TCL televisions in the last 3 years for myself as well as for gifts and have have always been very impressed.
