I’ll be looking to renew my Letterboxd membership, and possibly sign up for Pcloud. Other than that, will probably be trying to save my money as there’s nothing I really need. I used to look at hoovers every year but have given up on that, the deals on those are never good enough (to the point in some cases of not even being actual deals when looking at normal prices).
Yeah, that’s the most expensive OLED I’m considering. There are also a few cheaper OLED options starting at £799 I think.
Mini LED options are £799 to £999.
My understanding of main pros/cons - Brighter than OLED. Better contrast, colour accuracy and viewing angles than regular LED, although not as good as OLED. More expensive than regular LED. Cheaper than OLED (although difference not that big for smaller screen sizes such as 55"). Absence of potential burn-in issues present with OLEDs. Theoretically greater lifespan than OLED.
How fast are the uploads etc with pcloud?
My biggest issue with a lot of cloud storage has been the terrible upload and download rates killing its usefulness.
I’m so torn on whether to get a Sonos Beam or not, We’ve been using a cheap soundbar a family member gave us when we purchased our new tv because although the picture is excellent the sound is terrible, I’ve been looking at Soundbars for quite some time, The Beam gen 2 has quite a handsome saving in BF deals, i’m trying to think oof ways to get it without the other half murdering me
I purchased the Beam a few months ago. It has been excellent. Pairs nicely with my One’s - so it’s it gets used a lot more than just for TV. The connection was seamless.
I took a look at the Ray a few months ago but opted to spend a bit more and purchase the Beam instead. The Beam sounded significantly better than the Ray in the store (unsurprising I suppose) and its annoying the Ray doesn’t support HDMI connection.
I would say that unless you have other Sonos speakers in your home (or intend to purchase some) it may be better to look elsewhere. IMO the best thing about Sonos soundbars is integration with your other Sonos speakers. If this isn’t needed you can probably get a better soundbar for the same money.
You can find a store and take a look I guess, but OLED instantly looks way better than any LED display to me. It’s the true blacks and contrast I think, just can’t get that on LED.
