never realized stuff drew that much power, damn that is an eye opener esp in today's current affairs.

Thanks for that info drop.

Pretty good info, if you didn't know it yet.

Adding a pic from the original article.



If you have a 4K TV you probably will have native apps on your TV for most stuff.

Interesting. I mainly just use my phone and tablet for streaming, but my TV is a piece of shit. If I had a 4ktv I might have been using my ps5 for streaming.

I have a decent TV and the built-in applications are at least as good, and as responsive, as the ones in the consoles anyway, so I use those.

However, my previous set was a Samsung TV from 2017 and the Netflix app would freeze or refuse to start from time to time on tyzen OS (Samsung is garbage tier in everything they do)... So I used my PlayStation to watch stuff on it.

Good article. I have never used any app on my PlayStation or Xbox consoles ever. The closest I ever came was using the PS4 internet browser back in 2014 to buy a new laptop from Best Buy after my previous laptop died out. My gaming consoles are for just that - gaming. lol

I use all the built in Applications on my TV as they all come with 4K, HDR. Plus they tend to run smoother.
