Anybody spent any time with a 4K tv yet? Is the resolution really a difference maker?

Is it true that all these new TVs are built like shit and won't last five years?

They seem to be made well, but the technology makes them obsolete in five years more or less.

My parents DLP was still working when we gave it away (never had to replace the bulb either) it just looked like shit after 12 years

googling LG 32-inch OLED brings up a shitload of news articles from like 2012 saying "32-inch OLEDs coming from LG"

i have been planning to buy a new tv for about 3/4 years - i keep wavering between a smaller one for my room, or buying one for the main room in my flat with likely no contribution from flatmates.
no decision made yet.

Planning on buying a new one here in June once the move is complete -- selling off my current one since I didn't want the hassle of worrying about packing and moving it. Also I want to double check what the best size will be for the new locale...

One of the two HDMI ports on the TV in my office has crapped out, but one still works fine. Any ilxors use HDMI splitters? Recommendations?

Sorry, getting my terminology straight — I need a switch, not a splitter. Multiple inputs, one output to the tv.

Make sure the thing isnt going to get any wetness on it. Results are fatal. So don't use the top as a drinkstand, fishbowl balancer, or screen as waterpistol target. But you probably knew that.& don't use a wet cloth to clean off a year and a half's dirt. Or you'll never see anything through it again.

weird to think that all the big new TVs being discussed at the start of this thread were actually really bad but nobody knew yet

This means that the 65EF9500 will be able to detect the HDR (high dynamic range) metadata and apply the necessary PQ EOTF (perceptual quantizer electro-optical transfer function) over HDMI when Ultra HD Blu-ray eventually arrives
