One of the problems with electronics has been that there has not been a lot of value add in a lot of categories for a while, and in some cases, there has been value erosion. I bought an LG OLED TV in 2017. Since then, a similarly sized TV costs 50% more and is still more expensive to buy in a sale. (I bought mine in a sale) Meanwhile, there has been not a lot of value add to the TVs in terms of hardware. And whatever software features are being advertised, are in fact the reason why I refuse to replace mine. Mostly because the more poorly written software they add to the TV, the more enshittification of the viewer experience happens.
