The Google TV Streamer 4K is on a rare discount on Amazon, priced at $85, nearly matching its all-time low, making it a compelling choice for those seeking a solid Android TV box with 4K HDR support, Dolby Vision, and Dolby Atmos, despite not being the absolute top in its category.
The LG G3 OLED TV offers exceptional picture quality with its 4K HDR display and automatic adjustment based on content. It also features good native speakers and the ability to display artwork when not in use. However, the remote, menu, and operating system can be frustrating and confusing. Additionally, the TV is quite expensive. Overall, while the LG G3 OLED TV has its strengths, the user experience and price hinder its full potential.
The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro no longer require an adapter to connect to an external monitor, as they now come with USB-C ports. This upgrade allows for connecting to a monitor that can display up to 4K HDR at 60Hz, eliminating the need for a Lightning to HDMI adapter. USB-C to HDMI or USB-C to USB-C cables are likely to work for this purpose. The iPhone 15 Pro seems to have full USB 3 support with DisplayMode alt mode implementation, while the lower-end iPhone 15 has USB 2.0 data speeds. Further testing is needed to determine if USB-C docks will work the same on the iPhone 15.
The Hisense U8K ULED TV offers excellent performance with its vivid HDR colors, excellent contrast, and great backlight control.

Overall, the Hisense U8K offers a remarkable price-to-performance ratio and is highly recommended for those seeking a high-quality picture at an affordable price.
