There is also built-in Chromecast on the television series.
Apart from this, the TCL P725 series features support for HDR up to the Dolby Vision standard, along with Dolby Atmos audio. MEMC (Motion Estimation and Motion Compensation) technology for smoother motion, an included video call camera, and hands-free access to Google Assistant are also touted as key features on the TCL P725 televisions.
