Wireless ANC earbuds. (Airpods pro or similar)
Having high quality silence and/or music available in my pocket at all times was definitely more of a game changer than I expected.
Using a 8K 55" tv as a monitor.
I usually run it scaled, so I have basically the pixel area of a 4k screen but with retina resolution. Everything is crisp and large enough that even content placed in the corners is easy to read.
Truly a game changer for work, so much so that I am puzzled why there are basically no 8k proper monitors available at sensible prices. This TV was manufactured and shipped halfway across the world where I bought it brand new for less than 1000 usd. And its a TV, with a TV OS, remote control, TV tuners and whatnot - HDR even. A normal monitor without all the TV stuff and sensible inputs (I have to use HDMI 2.1) should be even cheaper.
- mangoTangoBango 5y agoWhich Model TV are you using? All I could find on bestbuy was a $1600 8k tv.
- Kon5ole 5y agoThe model name of mine is LG 55NANO956. Sadly it seems to be discontinued and all replacements are larger and/or more expensive. :( I can understand that actually, I don't think 8k at 55" makes much sense for TV content since you can't see the difference between 4k and 8k at normal tv distance when the screen is so small. It makes a ton of sense as a retina-resolution monitor though! I half suspect that was the plan for the panel, and that some other market factor caused it to end up in a small run of surprisingly cheap TV's instead.
- mangoTangoBango 5y agoHah, now I want one. Have you had any problems with burnin? Looks like something like this is 8k & still in stock https://www.bestbuy.com/site/reviews/samsung-55-class-q900-series-led-8k-uhd-smart-tizen-tv/6355633 https://www.bestbuy.com/site/reviews/samsung-55-class-q900-s....
