    How I’m bringing back physical media – and the 5 home theater gadgets helping me do it

    The centerpiece of my home theater setup is the Hisense U8N, which I was able to go hands-on with before. While it’s still an excellent TV, you’ll want to pick up its successor, the U8QG instead. It has an even better refresh rate of 165Hz, which can be bumped up to 288Hz for console gaming. It also features an improved Mini-LED panel with up to 5,000 nits of brightness for better visibility in direct sunlight and harsh overhead lighting. It’s also Pantone-Validated for color accuracy, so you’ll get more lifelike images.Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision IQ give you virtual surround sound and enhanced detailing to provide an immersive experience while streaming movies, music, console games, and shows.
