Isn't it bad for your eyes to sit that close to a tv vs a monitor?

I use the Samsung 57 in my Home office for productivity (love it at full res on my Macbook Pro) and on the other end of my huge L shaped desk I use the LG CX 48in OLED for gaming/media for the paste couple of years. Best of both worlds!

I love your pricing structure for long-form and short-form videos. I need to start charging more! 🤪

Im a little confused. I want to do the opposite. Monitor as a TV to watch movies/youtube in my bedroom with chromecast. What should I look for that's important? I want it to run smoothly with a really nice quality. I bought a second hand monitor with 2560x1440 but it says 1080p as native and cant change it in the panel. Its a bit older samsung s32d850t. A bit choppy and dont 100% sadestfied with the picture quality. What should be the most important spec to look for without wasting anymore money? Thanks alot for any input.

I've been rocking a 55-inch TV as my monitor for more than a year, and I'm loving it! The best part is, when I've had enough of sitting, I just kick back in bed and keep on using my computer. So comfy!

Nice vid!! I am using a mini-led 50” TV, but when gaming, I play in windowed mode; it's very uncomfortable to play games on this monitor size with a close approximately. May I ask one question, please: This or the g9 57”? Because I am thinking to switch

I’d go with this for gaming or the 57 for more productivity BUT you also get 240hz on the 57, so if that’s important to you then go for that! 👍🏼

@PeteMatheson; Thank you for helping to find an answer to a very difficult question! Your guidance would be super appreciated on this; What about something like the Hisense U8K Tv being paired with a strong 4080 RTX as an example? 55", 4k, 144Hz, G-Sync, 280Hz @ 1080p, HDMI 2.1, HD10+ etc etc? I'm comparing this to the Dell 32Q2332G - it's slightly more expensive than the TV, also 4K, 144Hz etc, but only 32", not QLED, and has no onboard processor. Only 'positive' I know of is the 1.4 DP on the Dell, but that's less bandwidth than using the true 2.1 to 2.1 48Gb/s HDMI, even though the HDMI carries both Audio and Visual data, unlike the 1.4 DP, it can handle it. What to do? 🙌🏼

I contacted Macbook Pro to Sony TV. It's work fine to open and read the apps but whenever I editing video using premiere pro, the quality of preview clip is so bad. I don't know why? Although I adjusted all the settings of monitor resolution

you should try the asus ultrawide monitors (49” pg49wcd oled)

But you never told us how far you are from the 48" lol, how do we know what do you mean by "ideal size" in this case?

just ordered a 43" 4k tv to use with my M1 MacBook Air, lets see how it goes...

@@mulayamyadav5956 actually is two things: great and more complicated than I thought. 1. the size is great (provided everything is running fine, which si actually more complicated than I though, see point 2). I'm able (using the rectangle app) to basically work with like seems like two monitors side by side. I'm a lawyer and working and comparing documents is great, watching videos in 4k is amazing, everything is great. I'm using the MacBook in clamshell mode all the time now. 2. its actually more complicated than I thought. I'm using a dongle I've always used, it as a HDMI out that I use to connect to the TV. I was not able to get 4k and 60hz form it. I as able to get 4k and 30hz, and 1080p and 60z only. 1080 for this size is very bad, and kills your eyes and just looks pixelated like crazy. My friend loaned me an original apple usb to cdmi/display port (also has power in) and that opened up all the options (including 4k 60hz and HDR). Before that I bought an individual usb to HDMI adapter and that didn't work AT ALL. Just returned it. With the original Apple thing everything works, now, that is 70 bucks, mind you. After I disconnected it, is like the Macbook "learned" 4k 60z and now the dongle is doing 4k 60z with no issues. I ordered a usb cdmi cable, that's supposed to work as well, let's see when it arrives. Right now, only ting I dont have with the dongle is HRD (did have it with apples adapter). HDR does make a very noticeable difference for the better. So, be aware of this (you need a lot of bandwidth to be able to get 4k 60 z HRD) which is the bets the MacBook Air m1 can punch out. It doe look great. I still have not been able to the sound to work (but I always use my speakers so I dont mind). All in all, I'm loving the set up, and feel greta I didn't spends the same on a 27 inch monitor with 144hz (which my MacBook cannot export to, as is capped at 4k 60hz). Go for it, buy the cable (15 dollars) or the 70 bucks Apple adapter. I'll see if the cable work in 5 days when it arrives.

main issue for me - the TV doesn't automatically switch ON/OFF when my PC is turned ON/OFF. I have to turn the TV ON with the remote. Small thing but for somebody who comes and goes having to grab the remote every time i sit at my desk because the PC has gone to sleep and therefore the TV has shut off(timer) it becomes OLD very quickly.

Im not sure if its because of my tvs but i had my Mac connected to my Sony Bravia oled and it would turn off itself, and i recently picked up the lg c4 for a monitor and it does the same thing, it turns off by itself ?

If you havent tried the Samsung odyssey ark yet you definitely have to, i went from a 75" tv couch setup to the ark on a desk and never going back, its insanely immersive

I’ll be going for a 42” 144hz oled tv, my reasoning is I feel anything designed for the “gamer” is full of tat to artificially inflate the price. I’m not new to oled either and I have yet to experience burn in.

I have burn in, with world of warcraft 🙂

Is it safe with radiation to use a tv as a monitor?

Hey! Pete’s channel manager, Chris, here! I live in a studio flat so actually DO use my monitor as a TV (because space saving)! 😅
