Cheaper tvs tend to have durability issues, worse color accuracy, bad local dimming (important for non-OLED panels since they don't have access to true black), awful viewing angles, worse pixel response time, etc. You also have to look for the specific features you might want. Variable refresh rate, HDR (not viable on sub $500 units, but still), what IO you need it to have, etc. It's a lot and I get that a cheap $250 box from Amazon Fire TV might get you "enough" but some research and you'll find much better value can be had. <cite>AnsestralRecall posted [p:972819794] in Best TV fo...
