For that HDR test it was mostly around 310w with a couple of jumps up to 340w. I couldn’t find anything that had mostly white image, so I…

I did a quick unscientific test on my 75” and got: Standby- 1.2w SDR TV 50% - 160w 80% - 230w 100% - 310w HDR 100% - 300-400w From memory…

I had the same view, but after watching a bunch of comparison videos (Stop the FOMO on YT gets super detailed) I went with the C7k as there…

Amazing TV for the money. I was always looking at C8k but after watching a bunch of comparison videos (Stop the FOMO on YT gets super…

Hard to say no for $50. Switched over seamlessly within an hour. Getting ~420/47Mbps

where are you getting the gift cards at 10% off?

I'd always go OLED unless it's a super bright room or you want the larger size, the S90f should be plenty bright.
17/08/2025 - 11:38
Yeah likely if you don’t need to ship it. I think the CostCo deal include shipping.

Hold strong, but keep in mind 85-inch TV has about 28.4% more screen area than the 75-inch TV.

Pot. Rice. Rinse rice. Add water to level 1-2cm above rice. Bring to boil. Temp to 1. Lid on. 10mins. Done.

It worries me how much faith people put in ChatGPT. Full array mini-led is leaps and bounds ahead of edge lit for contrast and deep blacks.

I don't believe so. The promo doesn't appear at the bottom of the page for the renewed phones. It would have been nice to save a couple…

Just get those cheap diamond coated sharpening stones from Amazon. They’re amazing for the price.

Yeah through a VM. UTM, VMWare, Parallels etc. it’s crazy but in some circumstances people have found virtualised Windows can run faster…

If you’re asking the question, then probably not. It’s worth it for those that want the best picture quality and deepest blacks. If you…

Similar to you, I usually add water to the still hot pan and put it back on the warm stove to soak. Then hand wash as usual after 30mins.…

Tech products are generally not making any big leaps in performance or functionality lately, it's all just iterative updates, meaning…

And now begins the painful 30 day notice period I have to give Exetel.

“Typical evening speed 7pm till 11pm” vs theoretical max.

I use Brave on mobile for ad free YouTube. As a bonus you can run it in the background (premium YT functionality) via picture-in-picture.

OK, so am I really going to notice much of a difference between each model if I'm just surfing the web from a hotel room with maybe 6…

From what I hear the sound on the C855 is pretty good with some decent bass (which tv speakers usually lack). If you watch plenty of movies…

Yeah I'm surprised by the low peak brightness of only 400nits. HDR content will be lacking punch.
02/12/2024 - 10:41
Based on that, and if you’re not a picky image quality guy (the curse Im afflicted with), then this should be fine. You can always try to…

Mini LED and FALD = picture quality, brightness and contrast.

Ouch, ours is still chugging along without any issues after nearly 7 years.
