my 42" plasma has lasted me for like 5 years and it's starting to go bad. I haven't been in the TV buying game in some time and not sure what I should get. is 4k really worth it? is 65" too small these days to watch games and junk on? do I really need to spend $2500 on a TV?
should I buy both and just put the one I don't like as much in the bathroom or spare bedroom? help me out guys

What's on crackle on Wednesday

They're all the same, buy whatever looks good to you in the store, and buy one bigger than you think you need.
-
4k is nice but what content are you going to get? Go with 1080 and save the money.
-
Buy the biggest son of a bitch that you can. /thread
-
how much did you pay for your emerson or whatever 5 years ago? :lol:
-
4k isn't really worth it at this point. Until OLED comes down in price or High Dynamic Range becomes viable, you're still going to get the best picture quality with the deeper blacks and better contrast of a "standard" HD plasma. I would see if you can still find a Samsung pn64f8500. The last great plasma.

I tend to turn my xbox on and just let it sit at the homescreen all day without using it, I feel like burn in could be a problem in that scenario.

I have a plasma and my only complaint is the glare.

plasmas were supposedly always heavier and put off a lot of heat/used a lot more electricity. I don't know if either of those things are still things though (if they ever were).

Yes, weight and power were disadvantages. The burn-in thing was a myth (at least not after the first models). Plasmas are also easier to break and may not be the best suited for super bright rooms. Oh, and they're not being manufactured anymore. But high-end plasmas are still the best picture quality available at the consumer price point. If you can find them.

probably on craig's list.

as mentioned, it will be YEARS before any meaningful content is 4k. So forget it.

I have a Samsung 55" 4k that is the best damn looking TV i've ever seen. Granted, I bought it on the spot when I noticed how beautiful it was, but that's beyond the point. DirecTV broadcasts some 4k content and I have other 4k content so I can promise you it's freaking amazing looking.
TBT, you've seen my layout...a 65 won't fit on the mantle the way my 55 will or else I would have bought that instead.

Well when tv buying. I have found that Vizio's built in sound quality blows. If you get a vizio make sure you have surround sound or a soundbar of sorts. Samsung's it seems like you are paying for a name and some of my friends have samsungs that run 1080p and to me they seem darker than other brands. There is a lot of personal preference to me when buying a tv and that's half the battle.

If you don't actually calibrate your tv once you get it setup in it's final home, then you're wasting your money on a nice tv.

I have not owned a dvd or blueray player for over a decade. one time some relative of mine tried to give me the Cars movie (great movie) for my kid because they had an extra and I was like, "nah". and they were like, "you already have it?" and I was like, "I have it on a NAS that I send to whatever tv or device my kid wants to watch it on like someone who's not literally living like a caveman lived with his physical media OMG!"

My last two TV purchases took a combined 17 minutes. I just walk into Costco, look at them, see which one has the best combination of cheap/decent looking, and buy it. If you factor in drive time, it probably took me 30 minutes more than that.

do you even look at the specs, Pete?

My Panasonic plasma went out a few months back, so I replaced it with a 4k Sony. Best TV that I've ever seen. It makes standard HD look better. Royals games are gorgeous. Netflix produces some shows in 4k (Daredevil, House of Cards) that stream 4k if you do it through the app built into the TV. If you run it through a Roku or Apple TV, it will flip it to 1080p by default. However, you need to have the necessary internet speed to stream 4k. I have 24mb and there's some lag from time to time with 4k content.
My suggestion is to get one good 4k in a room you watch a lot of TV in, and then buy Vizio's for every other room. I'm going to hang a 48" 1080p Vizio in my bedroom soon, and that plus a soundbar will put me out about $550. I got my Sony for about 50% off as they were clearing out the previous year models, so I paid about $1400 for it.
To be 100% honest, I love my Sony, but I'm probably just going to buy Vizio from now on. Their high end stuff in the 4K range is really nice and about 50-75% less than a Sony or Samsung. I plan to hang a 60+ inch TV in my basement sometime in the next couple of years, and I'm definitely doing a Vizio.

We listen to a lot of music. The Vizio soundbar is bluetooth compatible, so we plan on using it as a stereo in our bedroom.
But, yes, we plan on spending more time watching TV in there once we replace our 24" TV with a 48" Smart TV + Blu Ray.

Fine with the $2k but if there is little difference between the $600 version then I wouldn't want to go that high. Don't care about "Smart TV" functionality for the most part, pretty well set on that with Chromecast / Roku / PS4 and prefer those interfaces to the Samsung Smart TV I currently have. Is 4K going to be a thing on Cable / Streaming anytime soon, or just physical copies of movies?

You can get 70 inch and under pretty reasonably these days. A 4k vizio in the right size is a good price/quality for 99% of people.

The question isn't even whether or not there is 4K content. If you're buying a normal sized TV (65" or less) and sitting the typical 8-10 feet away from the screen you are throwing your money away buying 4K because your lame ass eyeballs can't tell the difference. #scammed

People have their loyalties but Vizio is usually the best value for the quality.
Other people mentioned refresh rate which is good advice, particularly for watching sports/gaming. Make sure you have 4k and at least a 120hz (actual) refresh. Beware anything that says "Picture clear 120" or something because that usually means it's actually 60hz with some bullshit upscaling thing. Most legit brands won't sell anything that isn't at least 120hz anymore.

For some reason I can't stand Vizio, and I really have no data to back it up. Just seems cheap.

Amazon has mounts that are half the price of anywhere else.
I'm not the most handy person but these things are really easy to mount. Most mounts work by bolting a big bar into the wall and then hooks on the back of the TV. You will need a second person to set the hooks on the bar. It shouldn't take more than 20 minutes.

I installed something similar to those, though mine are plastic, wish I had those, easier to put a lot of cables through. Agree though they look great. Lack of cable management pisses me off.
Also Wacks, I would get some twist ties (not zip, unless you want to keep cutting them to fit new wires in) before you actually get cables through the cover, it'll maker it easier to thread to them in at the same time by keeping them together better (at least in my experience)

You poor thing, your vision is so bad you couldn’t read my post saying I have exquisite vision with my contacts in. First thing I do in the morning is put them in and BOOM, exquisite vision. Last thing I do at night is take them out because I don’t need to see super well to see my dreams because they are just in my head :lol: So I could have super vision 24/7/365 but I don’t watch tv when I sleep.

sounds like your vision sucks if you need contacts, t's and p's TBT

have had a Samsung 4K 55in for 21 months. Starting today it has a vertical dark band like the picture below. Apparently a somewhat common issue for Samsung. :bang: guess i'm in the market again

Drunk bought at 43" TCL series 5 last week. I loved my old Vizio (and it still works after having it for about 11 years) but going from 32" to 43" is appropriate for my living room size (which is fairly small) and honestly it was about time. Anything bigger than like 47" would look hilariously overcompensating for my set up (like you could barely fit a 55" in the space I got, and I just don't need it to looks like one giant screen).
So far, very good, really enjoy the more real estate. Royals games look amazing, as is anything on netflix. Biggest PITA was wall mounting it (which looks sweet just hard to do with just 1 person) and then self made a cable blind since the old set up the TV was basically hiding the cables since it sat on the mantle. Floating exposes them and it pissed me off. Looks much better now though.

I have a Best Buy 55" Insignia Fire TV. No complaints after year 1. Sit 10' from the screen. Perfect for movie binging and sports.

I have one and know a lot of people with those portable JBL speakers. They are reliable, durable, and pretty simple to operate. I'm not a sound quality expert so I won't fully vouch for that but they sound good enough to me.

I installed/mounted one for a non-handy friend. It is, in fact, low profile and easy to mount. I don't think anyone's going to mistake it for a framed piece of artwork, though, even if you surrounded it with other framed pieces of art. But it might mollify your wife a bit. They don't necessarily look "bad." Overall, a little gimmicky, not nearly as artsy as their website makes it appear, but a decent compromise.

Kinda what I figured. We looked at them at Best Buy and believe it or not that didn't seem like the best environment to decide. The thin cable looked nice too

Yeah, that thin little cable is supposed to connect to a receiver module that accepts all your porting needs (hidden out of sight) and allegedly squeezes it all through said thin, proprietary cable. I've never stress-tested it, and my friend doesn't really run anything challenging through it, so I don't know how robust that interface/cable really is. But it is definitely designed to be an easy, low-profile solution. I have some concerns about it, but if you want a simple setup, I'm sure it would work just fine.
-
Those things look pretty great. Does the artwork change or do you just like pick one photo or painting? prob both. Wonder how long it will be before the price drops a bit.

So i'm on my second LG after returning the first one for a similar issue. Their HDMI ports are crap. They lose signal and glitch all the time. There are complaints about them online which I wish I had noticed prior to my return. Anyhoo, i'm prob going to get another TV, either a samsung or vizio as i've never really had trouble with either of those. My question is, when my tv isn't glitching, its still pretty new and has a great picture. It honestly doesn't glitch too much, just enough to annoy me and make me want a new one. What do I do with it? I can't sell it to someone with it glitching. I don't want to throw it away? Does anyone take and either fix or recycle them?

I had 2 yr old samsung that had a dark shade down the middle. I was able to sell it on facebook for like 50 bucks to someone who uses them for parts. I would try to sell it and just be honest about the issues. Could still ask quite a bit, Someone will probably think it's worth it.

If you're in the market, I have a 55" Insignia 4K LED Fire TV edition from Best Buy. Out the door for $423 ($487 today) with 5-year Geek Squad protection. No complaints after three years on performance. Navigation is simple with remote, voice, or phone. All the usual apps - Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, ESPN, etc.
The only drawback is you can only register one Prime account at a time on the TV. I just throw a Chromecast on HDMI 2 to stream content from fiancé's Prime account. No big deal.

Do you have any lines running from the house to the garage? Could simply add an ethernet cable to that and add a satellite to your main router in the garage. Otherwise, I have a friend who has had success with a mesh system for his back house, but it's only about 30 feet away from the main house.

yeah, I have little interest in that effort. They will come out and look at it in several weeks for several hundred dollars though! TVs are basically free at this point and it isn't worth it, especially since its an apparent issue with their brand. I just don't want to toss it, but also don't want to dump it on anyone.

What's wrong with disclosing the issue and selling as is, where is, with no express or implied warranties? No doubt there are those who are willing to enter into a clear-eyed transaction in exchange for a lower price.

Still has an awesome picture, tho. I still like the pictures on these old LCD displays, more cinematic IMO, a little easier on the eyes. People buy these new QLED's and OLED's and leave the settings on retina burn.

Got it from Costco. This is their mid tier sound system and the surround sound is legit. Only thing is that is has less audio channels so it may not sound as good. I think its great. One downside is that I can't plug it into my record player which blows but such as life.

Be careful about a Black Friday purchase. Most good to great deals are for the over-stocked and low-end items. Also, they throw in out-of-date products to clean up for next year's products. The best sales are in January.

It doesn’t have to be cheap, but I’m skeptical on getting the top dog $1000 one because this will only be for the slot I have for however long I want the nba jam arcade in that same space too. Some day I’d get the bitb big tv for that space when it doesn’t have to share room.
No idea really to what extent I need or should care about Roku, etc. other than that I don’t want to have to plug anything in.
Most of my espn is from the cable box, and I use an iPad on the couch for app things. Never use the tv’s remote, always the cable remote.

A little bigger than I wanted but I think it’d fit?

I have an LG set that I purchased back in 2013 for the purpose of watching Angel lob dunks to JO and Rodney swish 3's. I'm remain very pleased with the picture quality.

My 75" samsung that I bought last year is still going strong :Woohoo:
-
I ordered that oled lg 48-inch this morning while it’s only $550 and available. I’ll measure tonight and see if it’ll be too big. Exciting!

Good choice, Trim. I have a 55" LG that I setup in my bedroom for around ten years and I still love the picture. But due to the age of it I got a ROKU w/ voice command and it works great. This spring I ended up getting a 65" Samsung with 4K crystal display and don't need the ROKU. I have YouTube TV and Paramount+ and I just use the voice feature to open my apps. It works great. Do you have voice command on your new LG?

Do you have voice command on your new LG?
Don’t know. I have the voice thing on my cable remote. Don’t use it. I don’t subscribe to any of that stuff except the peacock that comes free with cable, and I’ve only watched that through the cable box.
The new one is 6 inches wider than my current and def a little wider than I wanted, but it’ll be on a very minimalist rolling stand so I can kind of push/tilt it a few inches to not impede nba jam or the path to my grill as needed.

OLED is totally the way to go. Been enjoying mine for a year and a half now and I'll never go back.

Let us know how well it works out. Sounds like a nice TV. :thumbs:

Two interesting TV tidbits:
1. I bought a 32" Westinghouse (lol I thought they only made toasters or something) last week for $99. :sdeek:
2. We still own the 42" Sony plasma tv we bought in 2007 for $1400. And it works great.
Just a couple TV tidbits.

I can't think of any application for a 32" TV in today's world. Unless it is going in the dashboard of your van build

We watch TV on it in the sunroom sometimes.

Good god, man. This is America in the year 2023. No person should be saddled with a 32-inch TV. Not even in the sunroom.

I will say it's not for everyone. People with bad eyesight and/or small penises might need to go bigger.

What is this, a TV for ants?!

I'm actually not sure of my penis size because my eyesight is so poor.

Put that in my bedroom last month. Even bought the dumb warranty because it was so cheap. Works like a champ.

For comparison , the diameter of the sun is 54.83 billion inches

They sell video wall controllers pretty cheap on Temu. I'm thinking of getting one, trying it on my 4 work monitors to see how well it works and then buying a half dozen or so monitors for my wall in office.
