- National Cut the Cord Day is this Friday,
and in this video not only do I give you a look
at how the TCL 4K S Series Roku TV will help you
cut the cord, but I also tell you how you can win
one of the four 55" Roku TVs that we're giving away.
What's going on text squad at Andru Edwards,
editor-in-chief at YourLife.com.

As I mentioned, National Cut the Cord Day is upon us,
and in this video I'm gonna show you how
the TCL S Series Roku TV can help you do just that.
Now, more than ever, people are looking to cut the cord.
If you're unsure what that means, it basically means
you're getting rid of your cable subscription
or you're getting rid of your satellite TV subscription,
and instead, you're either doing nothing or you're going
with things like Over-the-Air TV, streaming services
like Netflix and things like that in place
of a cable subscription.
As part of National Cut the Cord week, TCL actually
is running a promotion on Amazon through July 9th,
where if you buy one of their TVs you can also
get a free Winegard flat wave micro antenna
by using the promo cord "cut the cord" during checkout.
And if you're interested in anything I mentioned
in this video, I'll have links
down in the description below.
So, now let's get into the TCL S Series TV
and let me tell you how this TV can help you cut the cord.
First, probably the biggest reason is that it
has Roku built in, so typically, you wanna buy a Roku box,
especially one that support 4K resolution and streaming.
You're gonna need to spend at least $70
for the entry-level model, and up to about $109
if you want one of the higher-end versions.
But with the TCL S Series, you've got the Roku built
right in, you don't need to buy that extra set top box,
saving you that money.
And it's the full Roku experience so you get access
to all 4,500+ different Roku streaming channels.
So, that includes things like Netflix, Hulu, HBO Go,
and HBO Now, YouTube, Amazon Video, Sling TV,
PlayStation Vue, Starz, the WWE Network,
and much, much more.
And in fact, speaking of cutting the cord
and built-in Roku app, one of my favorite apps
on the TCL Roku TV is Plex.
Plex just introduced Plex Live TV and DVR.
You can watch and record your favorite free, high-definition
digital broadcasts using the Over-the-Air antenna.
That includes your local news and sports,
and then view them on any device,
not just the Roku TV, anywhere in the world.
So, after installing a digital antenna to the Roku TV,
Plex makes it super easy to enjoy that live TV,
both as it's happening and on-demand.
I'll leave links to Plex down below and how you can
get it for free or get the upgraded Plex Pass subscription.
As for the TV itself, it supports 4K resolution,
it supports HDR, it's got Wi-Fi built-in, up to 802.11ac,
three HDMI inputs, and this one in particular
that we're talking about and giving away is a 55" model.
So, that's the first thing,
you've got all your streaming apps built right in.
But what about your local channels,
what about local sports, et cetera?
Well, they've got you covered there as well.
All TCL Roku TVs have TV tuners built into them,
which means all you need to do is connect
an Over-the-Air antenna and you can instantly start
picking up all your local channels.
So, for example, as part of this giveaway,
we're including this right here.
This is the Winegard Micro Flat Wave F2000
Over-the-Air antenna.
Simply hook this into the back of the TV,
hit the scan button, it'll find all the local channels
that it can pick up.
So, not only do you have all the streaming options,
you also have your local, live TV options,
and that is picked up for free, no additional charge,
once you hook in the Over-the-Air antenna.
And the last cool feature I wanna highlight here
on the TCL S Series TV is the fact that around back,
there is a USB port.
If you plug in an external USB drive with at least 16GB
of storage, you can then start pausing live TV.
So, just like you can do with a cable company DVR,
using your Over-the-Air antenna while you're watching
live TV, after hooking in the the USB drive,
you then get the ability to pause live TV.
