It's about time the electronics industry as a whole realises that innovation for the sake of innovation is rarely a good thing

    Look, we can’t have TVs that last 15 years anymore! We need to keep people buying every year or two. Otherwise line not go up! Don’t you understand that this is about protecting The Economy?!

  • It's not even innovation, per say. It's just Big Number Go Up. Nobody seems to want to make a TV that makes watching TV more pleasant. They just want to turn these things into giant bespoke advertising billboards in your living room. Show me the TV manufacturer who includes an onboard ad blocker. That's some fucking innovation.

  • We traded 3D tv's, which are amazing if you watch the right stuff, for 8k... 8k is great, but we need media in 8k to go with it.

    Innovation is good. That being said, slapping "AI", "Smart" or more pixels is the opposite of innovation. Innovation is something new, out of the box. 1080p > 4k > 8k is logical progression.
