Awesome TV. I bought a 70" Sharp LED 2 years ago, looking to upgrade to the 4K version. How does it compare to Samsungs or LGs?
Got a tip for us?

I think most men have figured out that console gaming isn't the master race
There's always "that one" dude that just has to speak up when nobody asked their opinion.

Super fun to build. My nephews love it. The cockpit is kind of a pain to put on the ship
I replaced a 60" Samsung 1080p LED Smart TV (I'll have to check the model # later) in the living room, well actually I moved it to the bedroom and the 51" LG in the bedroom gets moved to the spare guest bedroom.
I really liked the Samsung, never used any of the smart features and I'll probably never use any of them on the new TV. I just want a large screen dumb TV that I can connect all my stuff in to.
The Sharp has android tv built-in, I toyed around with it the 1st night but I prefer the new aTV even if it isn't 4k - it's looks great on the new bigger screen.
I did some digging around to find more ideal calibrated settings, which I did with the Samsung also, to tone down the default settings and the picture looks much better and more realistic now. The colors and saturation is tuned to look super vibrant and pop out of the screen and that just doesn't do it for me, some shows look fine then the next one the greens and reds almost look fluorescent.
I wasn't looking for the best TV on the market and I didn't want to spend much over $2k, I just wanted a good looking TV that was larger than the one I currently had and I didn't want to go from 60"-65", it was 70"+ or wait.
Plus I wanted to purchase a new AV Receiver with 4k to be able to enjoy the picture with my audio system so I splurged a little on that. Overall I'm happy with both items, the TV for sure, the store I was at didn't have the particular Receiver I wanted so I felt a little rushed when choosing the one I got. I have a 45 day return policy so I'll do a little researching. I ws leaning towards one of the 7.2 Pioneer receivers, VSX1130k.

Loving the dock! I was planning on doing one for my 4s and you just gave me the perfect inspiration, thanks!View attachment 600062 View attachment 600063
It's a refurbished and redesigned 4s, not just a case. Even with 12 months of warranty and I have 14 days to give it back if I don't like it.
I am so curious how it'll look like in reality. But it I am afraid it won't arrive before Wednesday or Thursday.
Anyone wanna have my TSMC 6s Plus Rose Gold 128GB?
meh, don't like this 'premium' trend in gaming at all
to each their own though
Ordered this leather jacket the other day and just received it in the mail an hour ago, and man is it nice!
Actually went and swapped out the receiver I purchased over the weekend, the Onkyo TXNR646, and picked up a Pioneer Elite VSX90.
So, how's it working for you? Do you like it? I'm curious to know your thoughts/review of it. I saw it for sale at my local supermarket the other day.
Here's some pics of the notebook I ordered. It showed up a few days ago. It's a Midori Travellers Notebook imitation, known as a fauxdori. There are elastic bands inside that allow you to insert and arrange various notebooks (or inserts) like calendars and other various items. The Midori branded one has only one band, but many of the fauxdori's have up to 4, like this one from Chic Sparrow.
