I was hoping I would get another 3 years out of the current display while OLED matured, but that's not happening. The blue block on my xsrd is going and I've got all these green blotches showing up on my display.
Movies are still viewable, but I expect that won't last.
Some other things have changed, like child #2 heading off to university so I no longer need a second internet/gaming display. That's got me rethinking what I need.
Things I don't care about:
1. 4K I can barely tell the difference between upscaled DVDs and blurays on my 50" display at my seating distance (9').
2. Anything cable TV.
3. 3D If something worth watching in 3D comes along, I'll go to a theater.
What I care about:
1. Budget. Putting two kids through university is 'spensive!
2. Screen size. 50" is nice, but I wants bigger (not very compatible with #1
)
My usage will most likely change to more occasional as I do most of my browsing from my bedroom computer.
That's got me thinking about projectors. I can't afford the high end, but I know that in the last few years there have been some real advances in 'budget' projection.
Does anyone here have any experience with budget projectors like the BenQ 1070 or other projectors less that $2,000?
