That’s what I was dealing with the 48” - the most watched TV in the house

sits above the fireplace in what we call the “hearth room” which is about 60% of one large room where the other 40% is the kitchen. It was just starting to age. Having all the newer apps (like Disney+ - just finished Hawkeye, and Boba Fett ep3 coming up), AirPlay, Alexa, etc is a huge bennie. Easier, simpler remote as well, and a simpler UI to navigate around the screen.
