It takes literally 30 seconds to buy one on Amazon

It will be delivered tomorrow.

It will take 10 minutes to install.

Or if you don't want to spend those 10 minutes installing it, you can order guys to install it through Amazon at the time of purchase for a few hundred bucks.

I looked into a new tv and redditors told me you're basically wasting money until you get to the $2000 price point. But i have a projector setup anyway so whatever.

I guess you need OLED or whatever new tech is. Basically all TVs under that are prole trash with bad viewing angles and the wrong kind of ram

You need to calculate size based on viewing distance but yes almost everyone's screen is too small. 10 feet away the tv should be like 75" iirc

Yeah like if it's a question of "should I buy an 80" OLED or 100" LCD" then you just go with the LCD.

For a fixed size OLED is better but you'll often find significantly better prices on the previous year's model. If you buy the top of the line latest OLED you're just paying the "lazy rich guy" premium.

They keep inventing new terms for minor improvements but the big distinction remains OLED vs [everything else, which is always some variant of LCD]. They've done all sorts of don draper jew shit trying to confuse people here (like calling LCDs with a backlight "LED TVs" so people think it's similar to OLED) so don't pay attention to anything beyond that
