Amazing 4k tech specs.
Looking forward to next week when my 64gb Apple t.v. Is delivered.
Though no medium term plans for hdr yet as my Sony is 4K -10bit only.

The part about TV power consumption was very informative.

I know that the most common way LCD/LED TVs fail their power supply dies. Typically, one of the many various capacitors goes. I imagine that having a TV power supply running at full throttle all the time would accelerate this.

I had been so so on buying an OLED TV before, but with the quantity of HDR content only set to increase, I think it makes sense to revisit it. For obvious reasons, I like to buy nice things but not buy them often. In terms of getting use out of a TV for 5+ years, it seems OLED is the best bet today.
