    If you’ve got disposable income and use the latest tech devices as a status symbol, absolutely.

    If you’re going the projector route, I’d say definitely. New laser projectors and screen tech is waaaaaay beyond what it used to be.

    If you’re a gamer (or using a TV as a PC monitor) I’d say yes, the tech here has advanced quite a bit, and 4K gaming looks really good if your hardware can support it.

    If you’ve got a home theater setup, and are a movie buff, I’d say maybe, depending on how big of screen you want, how much money you want to spend, and how satisfied you are with your current gear. For me I don’t think the latest tech improvements justify the thousands of dollars of new gear I’d have to re-buy just to get 4K/HDR and ATMOS support when most of the movies I watch don’t even have good 5.1 tracks and are still on 480i or 1080p based media because they’re so old.

    If you’re a casual viewer of movies, streaming content, and TV shows, absolutely not. Any LED 1080p capable TV that isn’t trash tier is fine.
