I have an LG C1 OLED TV and use Apple TV device with it. Picture is great. I’ve never used any of the apps that are with the “smart” part of the TV, so can’t compare to that. I’ve always used an external device for streaming with every TV.
I used Roku devices up until about 7 years ago, and then I switched to Apple TV. The Rokus were fine at first, but I ended up having all kinds of problems with them. I don’t recall now what those problems were since it was so long ago, but I did have the Roku Ultra. I think it was the first model Roku Ultra they came out with at the time. Haven’t had any problems with Apple TV.
I was about to say the same thing about this not being unique to EVs. When I buy a car I know what I want, I’ve already researched the vehicle, and I find a dealer that has what I want on their lot. I go there already knowing which vehicle I want and I’m ready to buy.
There’s been more than once when I’ve bought an ICE vehicle, and the sales person is telling me all kinds of stuff about the features and whatnot - and I’m thinking “this dude is pulling this stuff out of his ass!” I never bother to correct them because I figure it’ll likely be a waste of time. Just sell me the vehicle and let’s get this crap over with.
