The Best Remote of 2014 from Samsung

When you are shopping for a new TV, one of the key features that is often overlooked is the remote. The fact is that remotes are where it is at in TVs. You can have the best TV on the market, but if the remote makes it hard to use, you may not enjoy the television at all. Looking back on 2014, it is easy to see which style remote was the best — the Samsung Smart Remote.

  • Featuring motion technology, this remote operates much like the popular Wii gaming system controller. Instead of using buttons to navigate through menus and windows, all you have to do is move the remote. This moves the pointer to exactly the location you need.
  • This remote also has a streamlined design. It is small, rounded, and fits well in the palm of your hand. Samsung did remove some buttons to ensure that the remote kept its small and handy appearance. However, you can still access the functions of the missing buttons — you just have to access them through the on-screen menus.
  • The Samsung remote is ideal for someone looking to watch some movies or shows without operating a bunch of devices at the same time. While this isn’t the ideal remote for universally controlling all of your electronic devices, if your needs are easy to meet, this can work. In other words, if simplicity is your middle name, then this remote is for you.

An LG Television to Die For

As we talk about new television models coming out in 2015, we simply cannot overlook one TV in particular — LG’s 98-inch 8K model. That’s right — we said 98 inches, and we said 8K, not 4K. This TV is certainly not for the faint-of-heart, and its TV remote control does a great job of accessing its features. This is a television for die-hard viewers who want a true theater experience in the comfort of their home.

  • One of the best features of this TV is its amazing display. This is thanks to the 8K technology, which has 4 times the resolution of today’s 4K TVs — and an astonishing 16 times the resolution of popular 1080p TVs. All of this resolution means you will experience an eye-popping, lifelike display.
  • Another fabulous feature of this TV is its sheer size. With 98 inches of viewing pleasure, you can watch all of your favorite movies, and feel as if you are in a theater. This is the kind of TV that needs a dedicated room, the kind of TV that practically demands a large audience simply to gush over its beauty.
  • The only downfall to this TV is that broadcasting isn’t ready for 8K resolution yet. Heck, broadcasting is still trying to catch up to 4K technology. However, technology is always improving, and it is probably safe to say that 8K resolution as a common feature is in our future. We just have to give broadcasters a chance to catch up with TV manufacturers.

Three Tips for Buying Your Next TV

We all know how difficult it can be to buy a new TV. You have so many features to consider, including the TV remote features. Figuring out which features you absolutely need and which ones you can live without can be tough. Here are three tips to help make your next TV purchase faster and easier:

  1. Set your budget. Before you ever start shopping, you need to know how much you can afford to spend. Setting a budget will keep you from looking at TVs that you can’t possibly afford. Determine how much TV you can buy, and stick to your budget.
  2. Decide on features. Features include things such as smart suites, 4K technology, HD, etc. You have to figure out which features are must-haves for your home. If you are a movie fanatic, you are going to want the best possible picture, so an HD 4K television may be your best choice. If you are more of an internet streamer, then you definitely want a TV with a suite of smart features that allow you to connect online.
  3. Start comparison shopping. Once you know which features you want, you can start shopping. Brand names can make a difference, although you shouldn’t be ruled only by the brand name. Instead, compare each make and model of each TV, and read reviews. You may be able to find all of the features you want at a lower price.

Keeping these three tips in mind, you should have less trouble finding and buying a TV to meet all of your viewing needs.
