Getting decent audio out of a TV with basically no bezel
That’s part of the problem, isn’t it? They’re trying to make TVs into an art piece instead of a functional appliance.
We were ok with fatass CRT sets when that’s all that was available. When LCD became standard, most people were happy about that. Now that bezel-less TVs are a thing, apparently we can no longer go back to anything but a 65" iPad.
This is fine with OLEDs and future(?) emissive displays TBH. They don’t need a thick bezel for much of anything, and thinning them out saves on materials/shipping weight up to a point.
Edge-lit LCDs were kind of an insane fad, but… outside low-end PC monitors, that’s mostly over.
