The Digital Detox:
Don't get seduced by "8K." The jump from 1080p to 4K was massive. The jump from 4K to 8K is invisible unless you have a 120-inch screen and sit five feet away. When you splurge, put your money into OLED (for dark rooms) or High-end Mini-LED (for bright rooms). Look for local dimming zones. If a TV has fewer than 500 dimming zones and costs over $2,000, walk away.
Not all content warrants a splurge. A sitcom is designed to be paused; a cinematic drama is not. tvsplurge
When you move from a "good enough" TV to a TVSplurge-tier set, you aren't just paying for inches. You are buying specific, tangible technologies.
Visuals provide the data; audio provides the emotion. To splurge is to curate the room
Sony and LG’s flagship processors (the XR Cognitive or the a9/a11 series) do something cheap TVs cannot: they upscale. A TVSplurge will make your 720p cable news look like 1080p, and your 1080p Blu-rays look nearly 4K. Cheap TVs stretch the image; expensive TVs reconstruct it.
Prices on large-format displays have collapsed. A 98-inch TV that cost $20,000 three years ago can now be had for under $4,000 during a sale. The TVSplurge is no longer about the best picture per inch; it is about the biggest best picture. The immersion factor of a 100-inch screen in a standard living room is genuinely life-changing.

A TVSplurge requires sustenance, but it must not break the immersion.
