I mean... it's not like the place is filthy. No piles of dirty clothes or dishes.
Also I'm reminded of a woman I know who has a very nicely decorated home, but mounted her TV so none of the ports are accessible. Want to plug something into the hdmi port? Well, you can't. TV looks nice on the wall, though.
To be honest with a smart TV most of the ports are useless. Most women I know don't have many extra things to plug in to the TV
Until a year or two after you buy your "smart" tv when it doesnt have the resources to run netflix with subtitles on because apparently that's too intensive
speaking from experience here.
Smart TVs are dumb, set top boxes are king
Yeah I don't need pesky wires or plugs to connect my surround sound system to my fancy smart TV, I can just use hopes and dreams
I have a sound bar that can apparently connect via Bluetooth but I can't work out why anyone would do that. You've gone to the trouble of getting an expensive soundbar so why would you then connect it via an inferior system that results in worse sound quality?
Does it say there's no delay?
That's not possible... definitely going to have some latency on Bluetooth.
I laughed for way too long at this
TBF you can still use the optical port.
Like I said to the person who started this conversation, why even bother with more than one HDMI port? Once you hook up a PC, literally all the games and media you could ever want to consume is available to you. Hell, if you don't game and don't need a PC for office work, you could get away with just the TV alone.
Not saying that TV manufacturers should start removing ports; just making a point.
Yeah seriously; why do TVs even come with more than one HDMI port? A PC and a smart TV alone all the games and media one could ever need in their household. Hell, if you don't game and don't have a work from home job, you could get away with a just the TV itself.
Yeah the point of my comment was you guys need all that shit, most women and some dudes I know use the TV as just that, no need to plug anything else in just a fucking slab with pictures moving on it. Perfect.
