4K TV


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

So today while the future wife and teenage future stepdaughter were discussing the subtle nuances of several pairs of boots, the teenage future stepson and I decided we'd rather be checking out electronics and took off to a conveniently nearby Best Buy store.

While there, I got my first in-person look at a Samsung 4K TV.

My word, it was fantastic :blink:

Part of me almost wishes I hadn't seen it. Mind you, I've got a great TV, but this was like nothing I've ever seen before.

The network infrastructure will need to catch up before this becomes main stream. It will be fairly useless on the average broadband connection today.

 

Blu Ray will catch up faster than that though.

 

I researched HDTVs for months before buying one.  This?  Probably a few years before I'll be ready to go for it.  Kind of got other priorities at the moment.

 

By my electronic lust has definitely gained a new object :unsure:

Bit of advice, stop buying off the shelf media.

 

The future is streaming media. You won't be able to purchase a disc of any kind in 10 years.

Getting a WiFi blu-ray player soon.

 

I agree it's going in that direction, but I don't think it'll go completely away.

Blu Ray is also catching up with DVD's to be obsolete.

 

Why litter your home with crap when you can buy a movie and stream it in high definition at any time from anywhere?

 

I haven't purchased a physical movie in several years and never will again.

the thing to know about 4K tv is, most are only running 4K resolution at 30hz.  If you are using for a pc gaming or anything like that, its not cut out for that.  Video will be fine. This is the tv I bought and will arrive today,

Its way better than what I have now and theres no point in spending $3K on new technology until its refined.  The upscaling on this should be pretty nice.  If not back to walmart it goes.

    • He had a turnover on all three goals he was on the ice for. Plus he had that god awful delay of game penalty. Like legit his GS actually shows he was the cause of the loss and he was only on the ice for 12 minutes. You remove him from that game and the Canes win or at worst go to OT.  Let's put this in perspective, in 12 minutes he directly led to 3 goals against. In the 48 minutes without him on the ice it was an even-steven 2-2 game and that's disregarding that god awful delay of game penalty that led to goal number 4 of the 5 given up.      I don't see how anyone could say that he didn't directly lead to the loss.   
    • reality is the piling on of Frank Reich is just the standard huddle angle we take of putting all blame on someone after the fact.   as I was an OG Frank hater before it was cool to be......now the swing goes too far the other way and people will claim me is as a Frank defender.  Frank Reich was the definition of a .500 middle of the road NFL coach.  He technically was a winning coach and above .500 coming here but he is and was NFL average.  we were the biggest joke in a decade.....because they paired Frank Reich (a dude who was going to do what he does in the NFL) with a dude who couldn't do NFL basics and Frank was forced to play him.  That's not Frank being a loser.  That a bad org around Frank. 
    • Toronto is less physical than us, and they took them to 7  I really wish they would have won, because we match up better with them, but we have to deal with what we got  What worries me is Svech trying to take out Bob, that is desperation, that's what you do when you feel like there is no legit options left, it's what I feared, Bob is still in our core groups head, and they are over thinking, over passing Hopefully that changes tonight
