Cause you didn’t have to replace them often. Hard to make money when you buy one forever and just keep updating the devices it controls.
Lot more money in mice and keyboards I guess.
Any TV Experts Out There?

Then sell the patients off to someone else, so people can still continue to purchase them. You have the best remote control on the market and then you up and stop making them.
I just purchased this one and really enjoy it.

It comes with a 5 year warranty which is great. Even if you don't have a Costco card currently its $65 for a month which easily covers the warranty cost you would pay else where.
This website is really great at breaking down and scoring tvs.

I think the real value is in the database. They have a massive database of codes for every device under the sun. So agree, just license out access to that data to other companies and let them develop the user end hardware.
You want 120hz because of LCD image persistence blur. While the content isn't going to be refreshing faster than 30-60fps, the pixels will be. This prevents smearing and ghosting and provides an overall better image.
To avoid the soap-opera effect. Turn down or completely off "Smooth Motion" or what ever your TV brand calls it.
In addition to refresh, you want to be looking at contrast and brightness. A TV with back or edge lit display is going to look washed out compared to a TV with dimming zones (mini LED) which in turn would beaten by an OLED.

I would not buy any TV for watching games except an LG OLED, I know they are way more expensive, but they are worth it. But the 77 is $3499, yikes.
Great call on contrast. And for contrast, it is hard to trust your eyes in the store. The bright, often fluorescent lights, you are under in a Costco or Best Buy are far different from the conditions in your home. This wipes out the benefit of those deep blacks in a mini LED or OLED. But it is the difference between the blackness of those blacks and the peak brightness of the whites that are what make the image quality really shine. This is why OLED is the premier option right now. On an OLED each pixel is individually lit, so for black the pixel is fully turned off, emitting absolutely no light, which gives you a perfect black. In a dim or dark room, this is absolutely amazing.
You can get an LG OLED through Costco 77 inch for $1500 or the eco AI version for $1999. The key to saving money on TVs is to purchase last years model as the new model is coming on the market.

Went to Best Buy last night and the LG C5 series OLED looked fine. Not as good as the Sony and TCL OLEDs that they had out but the price was much better. Currently $1999 for the 77”.
Almost bought it last night, but paused since I have two very young kids at home that will likely get their finger prints all over the screen and will likely through something at the screen in the next 10 years hahaha. So debating on pulling the trigger on the C5 or instead going with the much cheaper Hisense U6 Series, but getting the 85” instead of the 75”.
The C4 LG OLED, which is the $1500 option actually got a lower score from ratings for sport use versus the cheaper Hisense that I’m considering. Kind of a shocker.
I was interested in seeing what the QM7k looked like in the store, but looks like none of the local stores have it on display.I just purchased this one and really enjoy it.
