A replacement to my Plasma TV. Upgrading to 4k and trying to figure out if TVs really last 8+ years anymore.

Tech-wise ... been contemplating letting go of the 12.9" iPad Pro for a 10" with Pen support and officially replacing my work notebooks. Not sure I can quite justify the costs though.

The way prices are headed downward, I don't think we're far from the day that a TV joins the ever-growing list of "disposable" tech. (...at least for entry-level and mid-grade units.)

This summer, I picked up a 50" 4K TCL 4-Series TV for less than $375 (CAD). Between Roku streaming, satellite receiver, Blueray/DVD, and light XBox One play; so far so good! A friend bought the 65" model from the same series and uses it exclusively for gaming--no complaints from him either.
