Maybe gotta find one used from a business offloading their old ones.

It's an edge-lit VA with no local dimming so it's not going to look great compared to most modern TVs, especially at that price point

Samsung? The company displaying ads on the expensive fridges?

I'm not sure they're not doing something else.

I bought an LG commercial display at the exorbitant $1k price point a few years ago and every single time I walk past it I feel good about the money I spent. Does it look worse? Probably? Did I plug in a FireTV stick that is also spying on me? Yes. But I still consider it to have been preferable to just have a (relatively) dumb display that does not know when I play a dvd or blu ray and can’t tattle on me if I connect the TV to my Game console and play something embarrassing like Train Simulator 17 Nerd Edition.

Didn’t expect the fire stick

(Wish Apple had an incredible response to every single question, but while I’m still a fan, not going to use this comment as a plug… A little disappointed)

> Nerd Edition

Ooooh the expansion dropped!!
