You can watch movies and shows from Netflix, Hulu, HBO, and other services on a smartphone or a tablet, but a dedicated TV will always be something special. It’s the centerpiece of your living room, and the only display that you can truly cozy up to on the couch for hours on end. If you want to get more out of your purchase, you can make it even better with a powerful sound system and by hooking up a few game consoles, like the Nintendo Switch, PS4, or Xbox One. The latest 4K (and soon, 8K) displays from Sony, Samsung, LG, Vizio, and more deliver enhanced visual quality, better value, and smart features that you can’t find on other screens outside of your local cinema. If you’re looking for the latest TV news, how-tos on optimizing your home theater setup, and reviews for OLED and LCD TVs, you’ve come to the right place.
Fluffy robots, portable TVs, and vacuums with arms and legs. This is what we come to CES for.
The company hasn’t been back in the US TV market for long, but the Z95B OLED proves that Panasonic can hang with Sony, LG, and Samsung at the very high end.
The Hue Sync TV app was previously only available for Samsung TVs, but now you can sync up your lighting with content playing on your LG TV (for a pretty hefty price, of course).
The app, which also comes with the option for a $3.99 per month subscription, is available on LG TVs with webOS 24 and newer.
And I’m here for it! The StanbyME 2 comes with more pixels, more ports (2x USB-C and HDMI), and an extra 30 minutes of battery life.
But who cares about specs: the best part about it are the new accessories, one of which is a shoulder strap. I always wished my TV would come with one, and now it does. See it in action below.
The company created a sensation by making TVs that look more like art and less like tech. With The Frame Pro, Samsung is trying to deliver the best of both worlds.
Shank Mods’ winding tale about rescuing the behemoth Sony PVM-4300 from a recently closed restaurant on the other side of the globe is a delight from start to finish. (And getting the TV is only part of the story.)
All I will think about for the rest of the day is playing 4-player Mario Kart: Double Dash!! on this beauty.
In addition to iPad-like smart home displays and tabletop robots, Apple’s smart home future could include a television set, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman writes in Power On today.
The company is only “evaluating” the idea, but I’m so curious what it would call an actual TV in a world with Apple TV (the app), Apple TV (the set-top box) and Apple TV Plus (the service).
Some deals are gone, but you still have time this week to save big on some of our favorite gadgets and goods.
At $449, this all-in-one Google TV projector is a good choice if portability is important and you already own a battery with USB-C PD 3.0 output. The speaker is good enough, and the auto-positioned 1080p image looks best at night but remains watchable during the day. A $499 bundle incudes a wobbly PowerBase Stand for about two hours of playback. Mine toppled over onto concrete but the projector survived!
A proposed class action lawsuit filed in Washington state claims Amazon misleads customers about Fire TV prices during “limited-time” deals:
Far from being on sale, or being sold at a discount off of List Prices, the Fire TVs were always available for sale during the class period. As a result, everything about Defendants’ price and purported discount advertising is false and misleading.
This echoes a similar lawsuit filed against Amazon in 2021.
The Premiere 9 and Premiere 7 share the same 4K resolution and HDR 10+ certification as their predecessor, but they come with Samsung’s gaming hub and an ambient mode that projects photos, videos, and widgets on your wall when you’re not watching anything.
While the triple-laser 130-inch Premiere 9 costs $6,000, the 120-inch Premiere 7 is priced at $3,000.
