also what the gently caress is Samsung's excuse for not using a matte screen? i don't care if it's a $500 TV, that's shameful

glossy screens "pop" more because the blacks look darker but they're worse at everything else

and laments not buying a different tv made by vizio, who i have never heard of but am assuming are equally bad
vizios are usually considered the best of the poverty tier but they got bought by le eco so they'll probably be terrible real soon

ultra lol at dude having a $500 tv budget

can't really blame ars for that. people have been getting it wrong forever. in the early 2000s everyone was trying to portray nerds as flame shirt wearing limp bizkit fans playing crazy taxi and watching tony hawk do a 900

I skipped work to go to the 99 xgames and saw tony hawk do the first 900 in competition

the internet has killed wisdom since not only are all possible takes available at any time but many of the worst opinions are expressed in slick, entertaining fashion

I've got bad news for you, Sony isn't a good brand anymore. they use google tv and it's awful and also their scaling and smoothing software is lousy.
they have consistently the best motion handling of any manufacturer, easiest to get to decent color without a $400 calibration too

also despite using google tv there's no ads in the ui unlike most other manufacturers
