Howdy guys! Hope you all are doing very well. I was just going through the posts from yesteryears. I don't see a post of my final purchase at least on this thread. So here it is almost 7 years later!!!
I finally purchased Samsung 51F5500 plasma and also got the camera that goes with it. Total 75k INR. I ended up in a hasty buy as my old TV panel was scratched by a kid while playing and it was interfering a lot in watching the football matches. I bought 2 additional 3D glasses from Amazon.
I must say, I got used to the TV and its picture quality so much, that every other TV I see around seems to deliver artificial picture with over-saturated colours, no matter how good they are. I got biased! It has been a simple TV and with my Amazon stick 4K plugged into the Home Theatre Sony HT IV300, the set up works great and seamlessly with one remote. I didn't miss 4K.
It's 5 years since we disconnected our 2 set top boxes and stopped watching TV channels. We at home developed a feeling that we were wasting time watching TV and the channels contents were no more appealing. Even to watch YouTube and movies, we had been switching the TV on only very few times a week until the pandemic started. Currently our TV time is intermittent and couple of hours a day at most.
We had 2 tablets at home for me and my wife. The pandemic led to acquisition of 3 more. Maybe that is the reason TV is mostly not is use. Only for Xbox it is switched on lately. So one thing I am happy about is that I did not spend 1.5lakhs on the TV! The waste would have been more
I bought a decent lossless personal audio player and 2 great big headphones. Gothic metal and the player is keeping me better entertained.
Let me know your story how it has been.
