The recent TCL televisions come with a preinstalled Amazon prime video app, so it is quite easy for you to stream videos without interruption. If you had older TCL TV models, you need to install the Amazon Prime Video app manually. Generally, the TCL Smart TVs run on two-different OS: Android and Roku. Depending on the operating system, the installation steps will vary. But, the media contents and streaming quality remains the same on both models.
As usual, sign up for Amazon Prime membership before heading into the downloading steps.
