PatrickMahomes 07/28/20 12:12:09 PM #9:	TCL is great for bargain shopping. Got the 43'' 4k TV with the Roku built in for like $250.

Jabodie 07/28/20 12:19:40 PM #13:	I got a 55" 4K HDR TV in the ~$500 range. The worst aspect by far is the lack of inputs. It only comes with 2 HDMI ports, nothing else Luckily I keep a 1080p TV and CRT for my other consoles, but it's still annoying to have to rotate my PS4, XBone, and Switch all the time. I'm sure I'm also sacrificing some picture quality with the budget, but it's so much better than my previous display that I begrudge that much. --- <insert sig here> <cite>Jabodie posted [p:942689119] in You know h...

You could go with the 4 series if you want to save any more money, though having seen both in person in a real setting thats not in a store (my brother has both a 4 and a 6 series), I can safely say theres a big picture quality difference, especially with HDR. Copy_X_Mk_ll posted... DONT get a TCL, theyll fail right after the warranty period ends. Get a decent Samsung or something for like $800 Is there any data I can read anywhere that shows a significant difference in reliability between the two brands? I saw a Consumer Reports article that said TCLs reliability was just a notch below the major brands, but nothing to show a huge gap. And even then those results are going to be skewed because the major brands have a much bigger presence in the high-end market than TCL. The build quality and QA gap between a TCL and Samsungs $5000 8k TVs will be much wider than the gap between a TCL and the Samsung they sell at Walmart. --- 17 years on Gamefaqs, and I still don't have a signature. <cite>Son Of Spam posted [p:942694929] in You know h...

I dont mind so much having HDMI gone as I also have a CRT in the room, but it came to a head when I wanted to play Metroid Prime and Echoes on my flatscreen, realizing there was no way to hook a GameCube up to it was a bit of a pisser. Had to go use my sisters TV. Thankfully anything else will either be better on the CRT or available through HDMI There actually is a non mod solution for HMDI output for the GC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QH2POr3ZGjM It's $100 though.
