$700 Budget TV for Movies and shows

WavyDavy

I was wondering if anyone had some suggestions for a TV that's 4k with good features. My family bought a TV a year or so ago and I cant watch with the screen tearing but it was relatively new. So something in my budget without the screen tearing, good audio, 4k, just great all around TV for only movies and shows no gaming going on. If anyone has some suggestions id really appreciate it.

Do you want to use it as a monitor?  That’s kind of the only sort of TVs that even get looked at around here.  Latency matters for video games but it doesn’t for video

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

No not as a monitor just a TV for movies. Dont know the one my family bought but i notice the screen tearing and I don't want that so good refresh rate would be nice.

The Nanocell 90 isn't bad, but it's no OLED. 

If you live near a MicroCenter, they have refurbished C1's starting around $800. Those are a killer deal.

Refresh rate has nothing to do with tearing. If a TV has screen tearing in movies it's flawed from the ground up.

 

A good 60Hz TV will have no tearing, just like a good 120Hz TV.

 

When you can control the light in your room, the A1 can be a great choice, but like others mentioned it wouldn't be my first choice for gaming.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

Well its not for gaming(might do some gaming in the future with it but not as of right now), just movies and shows, and I didn't know that about the 60Hz wonder how bad the TV is my family got

60Hz is the standard for mid range TV's nowadays. Some entry-level TVs only run on 50Hz.
