Poorfag detected.

what kind of advanced pajeet poorfag turbocope is this lmao

Probably because blu-ray still costs significantly more. Meanwhile, 4K TVs are selling for essentially the same price as 1080p. You can buy a 40 inch Samsung 4K Smart TV for $200.

I still own a 1080i 32" widescreen crt

I still think the picture looks better than new tvs

Great 4K TVs are not better just because of the higher resolution, but because of HDR. The difference is night and day, it's almost as if the picture pops out from the TV itself, like 3D without the glasses.

Whew you almost made a point poorfag. I could buy one every week if I wanted and still live comfortably you fucking 1080p loser.

Blade Runner 4k is pure kino.

The funniest part is I KNOW I’m wealthier than you shitposting virgins but you don’t realize how trashy you sound bragging about fucking TVs of all things.

you are the first to note that buying a TV is anything special at all, indicating that you're a third world poorfag pajeet

You’re the one that called everyone poor for buying new TVs lmao. The fact that you think buying a $200 TV would make someone poor definitely makes you seem like you’re either poor or you just don’t know what you’re talking about.

you are the first to note that buying a TV is anything special at all, indicating that you're a third world poorfag pajeet

the reason is most people don't care about picture quality that much

I bought a cheap 4K Smasung TV, without thinking. What a mistake! This garbage doesn't have a jack for phones and doesn't have bluetooth either. The interface is not some smooth android menu, nah it's some ugly bright shit that is super slown, like an old computer running windows 10. This shit only has one HDMI prot and one USB port! Absolute trash.

Once the CRT era had rolled over and LCD got established TVs in general were not really expensive.
4k hdr tv from a good manufacturer still costs pennies in comparison to say a SONY 32" XBR set from the 90s

Naw man you want the biggest screen for maximum immersion and the best experience which is why people pay to go to the movies. Nowadays home theater rivals going out. Nothing comfier than watching your favorite movies on a huge screen in great detail with full sound system in the comfort of your own home.

>43 inch 4K Toshiba available right now on Amazon for $200
>expensive

>he doesn't own a a 2 ton IMAX analog projector along with the 98 feet high silver screen and perfect acoustic treatment of the room which eliminates your perception of any speakers at all.and a sound system with multi-thousand watt amplifiers capable of reaching uncompressed 118 decibels with zero distortion, sub bass capable of going as low as 20hz and an omni-directional sound with speakers even behind the screen which has microscopic holes throughout for the sound to get through

Absolute fucking cope. Enjoy your over priced idiot box you knuckle dragger.

man this pajeet mental midget is quite something

>20hz
Nigga my Sony home stereo goes lower. Hell my Sony bass boosted 50mm headphones go lower.

Then they must be blind. I grew up on recorded VHS tapes and I feel that with blu ray/4k I'm finally able to see the movie. Like a virgin unlocking pandoras box I don't ever want to go back and I want to see all my favorite films again.

It’s not overpriced if it doesn’t put a meaningful dent in my wallet

Whatever happened to plasma TVs? I really wanted one like 10 years ago

Just because you can afford it doesn’t mean it’s not overpriced.

Literally and unironically go back to Yea Forumseddit you insufferable newfag.

Yeah that sucks you really want to buy the higher end ones if you can. My 40" samsung is a 6 series with no options and it was disappointing besides the picture so I made sure my 65 would have everything. Now I'm super happy.

DVDs only looked bad because people were idiots who didn't purchase component cables.
When it comes to the HD era what impressed people the most was probably HDMI

>Just because you can afford it doesn’t mean it’s not overpriced.
who gives a fuck you absolute poorfag, yeah and popcorn at a theater are also overpriced, but since I am not a wagecuck poorfaggot I can afford them every single day of my life if I want to

Shitty genetics. Why respond you fucking nerd?

why are they still called televisions if no one watches television on them anymore?

A fool and their money shall soon part ways...

It’s not just that I can afford it. It’s that I can buy it with literally no financial consequence. If you’re as wealthy as you say you are, you know as well as I do that $200 is not that much money to spend once on a product that will last 20+ years. Why the fuck would I think for a second that something is overpriced if inflicts zero consequences on my financial situation?

>overpriced

All those televisions are the equivalent of owning some garbage Zenith set during the CRT days.

Except you're completely wrong.

1080i

Elaborate please on how a Samsung flatscreen today is equivalent to some garbage Zenith?

>garbage chinese sets
>budget line samsung shit
Yeah exactly right

Picking literally the cheapest TV on google and running with that as justification for your argument.

user....I, now know for a fact you wasted money where before I just suspected it.

I bought mine for that price in a store. It’s been working perfectly. No dent in my pocket. No regrets.

Do you think people replace their TV every few years like it’s an iPhone or something?

Lol, you probably never have girls at your apartment. The females like nothing more than when I fire up my SmartTV and play kino. May I suggest you have sex? Lol... pathetic...

Stopped reading right there. Disgusting city shithole poorfag retard subhuman faggot.

Ah yes, surely buying a TV for $200 and not suffering whatsoever will take a toll on my personal happiness and wellbeing in the long run

Whatever floats your boat Captain Fuckwit.

Oh im sorry you can't afford an apartment? still live with mommy and daddy? you suck

To all the people arguing over the cheap TCL TV, I've never owned a TCL but I do own a TV running Roku's UI and it's fucking terrible. I own a couple Samsungs from last year and love their UI. Obviously you'd pay a bit more but something worth considering.

Whatever boosts your ego, Uncle Pennybags

TVs are cheap as shit these days because most of the brands are just licensed brands the Chinks and other use to slap on their sets.
Take SHARP sets in the US they are made by Chinese Hisense meanwhile in Europe SHARP sets in europe are made by the Slovakian UMC

Massive cope right here. Almost can’t tell if I’m the one being trolled at this point.

living with mum for free beats throwing away money by renting an apartment you'll never own

>he doesn't help his parents out
look at mr.gucci loafers over here

Not every apartment is located in a city or as expensive as a city apartment. They’re a cheap alternative to a house in a lot of communities. You’d think the anons here moaning about money being “wasted” would understand.

Living with your parents =\= Helping them out

I wanna assume you’re trolling but the exact person who is so obsessed with status to waste money renting in the city and buying new model TVs is exactly the type of insecure person to post 12 times here justifying their stupid lifestyle.

What's your take on Samsung? I generally like their products, I have an s8 which has shit battery life but does everything else well, I have their washer and dryer which are great, and I have an mu6290 65" and a Q6F 55" that I'm very happy with. I'm thinking about replacing a couple other TVs in the house with Samsung but I'm waiting to see if I can score a better deal on QLED models. Anyways, is their tech in house or do they get their shit from dirty scum chinks?

This. Got a 4k Samsung for around $420 on a black friday sale a couple years back.

Buying a new model TV is no more of an expression of status than having a car or a dog. Get over it.

what do you expect people with money to do user? I like watching movies so I like having a big high quality TV to do it on. The new features entice me after about 5 years and I switch everything up. Do you buy anything modern or is everything in your home from a thrift store to prove how hip and anti-capitalist you are?

Good analogy. It’s just exactly as stupid as buying a new car or expensive dog breed.

The only ones who still make their own television sets are SONY,LG,Panasonic,Samsung
You may still get chinked if you buy the lowest entry level set though.

Consumer electronics and white goods are a complete clusterfuck these days. Samsung still makes their own television sets. When it comes to other thing it really depends on the market for example SHARP microwaves in the US are still genuine SHARP products. Meanwhile in Europe SHARP microwaves are just rebanded Turkish Vestel products produced in Poland.

gigachad literally only owns an IMAX screen for tv, film reel and PC usage

You wonder why everyone is cooling you poor. Here’s a hint: none of this shit costs enough to phase the average person. Just get over it.

neat, is there a website that you can go to in order to easily find out who's actually making what? I guess I could research prior to purchase but sounds fun to dig through

Same reason smart phones are called phones and not computers

Sometimes you have to dig around, in most cases just a google is enough

>new cars, TVs, and $10,000 dogs don’t cost the average person anything you’re poor!
Wow, this really is a news flash for me thanks based retard.

I agree that the difference between VHS/DVD and 1080p is very noticeable and watching content in 1080p is worth it. I'm not sure about 4K though, while there are even more details, it seems like we've reached diminishing returns especially considering the most common screen sizes and viewing distances today. It might be worth it for projectors and huge projection diameters, like 3m+

imagine being poor AND upset about it. Can't you berniebots just be humble and accept that you'll never have any quality of life? Socialists could hand you money monthly like you've been begging for and you'd still fuck it up because you're poor for a reason. You've either
>made poor financial decisions
>made poor life choices
>are a drug addict
>are lazy
>are a drug addict
Pick all you fucking queer.

4K is worth it on big screens. Though 4K on some 24" PC monitor is just braindead.

The average person is actually poor as fuck or in debt despite their first world wages because they waste it all on stupid shit, case in point

wjat? and You own an 8k?

640x480 crt

Massive projection and cope. All I did was point out a common financial mistake. Lash out and be defensive if you must, this only reflects poorly on you.

>this reeee of a post all because someone called you financially retarded for wasting money on new tv’s
Making up fan fictions about anons on Yea Forums is not going to improve your financial literacy man

You need 65 and bigger but you're definitely right about the jump not being as drastic as dvd to blu ray, it's more for the HDR but you can still see overall greater clarity on the 4k especially with all the older films being restored from their original film stock.

Imagine creating strawmen arguments on an anonymous imageboard to “win” fake arguments in your head. Imagine only being able to express disproval with the phrase “imagine” like some kind of reddit drone.

Imagine getting buttblasted over a bunch of anons on Yea Forums being able to buy $200 TVs with zero financial consequences

>$200 TV
Yeah, enjoy your Chinese garbage bro.

This pretty much sums up 90% of the entire modern consumer electronics market
>In April 2012, all 3300 employees of Philips' TV division transferred to TP Vision, a joint venture 70% owned by TPV Technology, headquartered in Hong Kong, China and 30% by Royal Philips Electronics. Philips also receives royalties from TP Vision

Chinks killed it and everyone else moved on to the professional market. Where you can sell some hospital monitor for 40 grand.

TV price markup is mostly artificial. All the panels are made in the same Chinese/Korean factory.

I own a 28 inch Samsung 4k monitor, it's pretty good, picked it up for £185

Whatever helps you sleep at night.

u must be fun at parties...

Yikes.

I will. And when it breaks, I’ll buy a new one, and continue living my life with a smile on my face.

Thing with Chink shit TVs is that they have reached the point of where they are what you would call "good enough". It is no longer the days when you look at some Trinitron and compare it with some Zenith set.
Japs knocked out the US&European manufacturers
Koreans knocked out the Japs
Chinks knocked out everyone

My 6 year old 1080p plasma looks better than your 4k tv

While I am at it. The only thing stopping the chinks from completely ruling the consumer electronics market is that Chink cheapskate mentality. They can pull off a product and do about 90% everything right but then they fuck up the final 10% so bad the end product just ends massively crippled. Once they stop doing this the entire market belongs to them. You can't survive by being Pioneer in the long run

Ok stevie wonder.

Who still remembers their TVs?

Any tech savvy anons know much about QLED? Is it something other brands will do or is it something only Samsung can fuck around with and how does it compete with OLED?
