I have a little problem and I ordered a new TV this morning. A really cool 55 "4K HDR Samsung with voice remote control, Google Assistant compatibility and HbbTV and so many other features.
I bought the one I still have in 2014: A fairly simple 48 incher without internet functions, which is also pretty good but only FHD. So far I have been using Chromecast or the PS4 for streaming. But it is really missing what I find especially without 4k and Hbb etc. Voice control has also worked with Chromecast but of course only to a limited extent and I always had to switch to HDMI and the switchover time between the channels was not that great.
In 2012 or 13 I already had a Smart TV but a 32, but it never had so many features.
Anyway: I have already switched my Netflix subscription to UHD and looked at how much 4k content there's on netflix. Do you see that somewhere in the app whether a film or series is available in 4k? Do you have any tips for 4k films?
I have to say 4k is not unknown to me. My monitor has been a 4k screen since 2016, but only with limited good colors. And I had never seen 4k and Hdr on TV, except for others.
And the cool thing about the new one is that it also has a function that automatically suggests content from Netflix, Prime, TV, etc. That I find extremely practical. And the ambient mode 😍 Simply take photos in the background while nothing is watching on the TV. That it looks like the TV is like a picture on the wall. And I can finally pair my Bluetooth headphones 🤩
The problem is, it was not shipped today, although I ordered it around 4 a.m. That means it does not come before Friday and in the worst case scenario not until next week 😱 Delivery time is given as 1-2 days. But how do I spend the time now and make the waiting halfway bearable 😔 I don't have a 4k Bluray player either, should I get one? PS4 unfortunately can't do 4k BluRays.
I recently started with Fear The Walking Dead 2 but honestly I don't find it so cool because otherwise I would have said I could watch until the new TV is there (is Fear The Walking Dead also available in 4k? 4k change something on the Amazon account or is it just so)
So what do I do until then? Watching a couple of BluRay movies or maybe something nice on Netflix?
Can't wait for the moment and just think all the time how epic it gets 😂
I know that all too well haha. Try to forget your TV (even if it's difficult). Pretend you never ordered it, you don't have to wait ^^
I know that too well. Unfortunately I can only order my 4K TV next month
At Amazon Prime it is actually marked as 4k, at Netflix I think almost all of my own productions are in 4k. I would rather do without 4k Bluray players or wait for the next-gen consoles what they deliver for drives.
