4x the data rate.

That doesn't account for better compression.  h.265 or VP9 help a
bit.

My son bought me a 54" Sharp Aquos TV 10 years ago.  It has great picture
quality and has performed without a hitch since day one.  I keep on waiting
for it to fail but despite heavy use it refuses to.  As you can see, it
still gets great reviews.

I think I saw some 4k content on Netflix, I presume they are using some 
heavy compression algorithms (like regular HD content) to get it down to 
something that most ISPs deliver.  I think I nominally have 15 or 18Mbps 
on my ATT Uverse link, it's been awhile since I looked at whatever they 
are sending and the bandwidth it uses.  I vaguely recall the Netflix 
content was like 8Mbps for an HD stream.  Whatever it is, it looks 
pretty good, and I have noticed that some of the newer content looks 
really good.


The streams do slow down sometimes and get snowy or quite pixelated, it 
might be the Firestick gets confused or ATT is choking the stream.  
Usually if I quit the show and start it again it is fine.  I notice my 
older AppleTV seems to choke much more often now and will do what 
appears to be a soft reboot, and if it keeps acting up I have to unplug 
it and do a hard reboot then it works better for a coupla weeks until it 
starts choking again.

> There is something called "QLED" now,

It's an LCD display that is backlit with LED's.  Nothing special, in other 
words,
unless you admire marketing's ability to make something out of nothing.

With the demise of CRT and plasma, the only consumer display technologies out 
there are:

LCD (filtering bulk light provided by other means)
DLP (reflecting bulk light provided by other means)
OLED(generating light independently per-pixel)

Anything else is just marketing's spin on one of the above.

 You've hit on the problem with 4K and we talk about this at work a lot.Most 
cable and satellite TV providers are giving you 25-30mbit/sec bandwidth for HD 
which is about the same bandwidth as an SD DVD which was 1/3 to 1/4 the frame 
size.
If you go to 4K which is nearly 2x the resolution of 1080 and don't double the 
data rate what are you getting? Distribution of 4K is spotty at 
best.Uncompressed 4K is something like 1500MB/s, thats one and a half gigabytes

New is far less expensive, and you get warranty.   Just how magic does it need 
to be? 4K?  Normal 1080p at 120hz is good enough for something that large if 
you are using it in a very large room, so you do not notice pixels.  The Sharp 
52” is really good from 15 foot away.  For some reason the kids have hooked 
video game to it and sit almost a meter off the screen staring at a steep angle

As long as you stick to a name brand you should be fine. You really don’t have 
to worry about the “smart” aspect of these as long as you don’t connect them to 
a network. I connect mine once every few months, jump into the menu to run 
updates, and pull the (network) plug as soon as it’s done.

I think the big thing these days is LED vs. OLED(?) I know one of them is 
significantly more expensive but the picture quality is noticeably better.

After the first of the year I intend to buy a new TV. I would rather 
not have a "smart" tv. I know Dan bought one a while ago. What was the 
consensus?

Samsung? LG? Elcheapo?

Vizios are decent and lower price. The major brands have various levels of 
performance reflected in prices. Be careful of assessing them in the store, 
they’re always cranked up on contrast and saturation etc.

I bought a 75" LG, the cheap one.  Seems just fine.
