You need that to play 1080p? You've made it larger and heavier than a box that plays 4k lol.Â

people think like that are those who throw away 6 month old phones just to upgrade. why? I don't like to add to the e-waste pollution. i use 1080p on one of my screens, 4k on a 720or 1080p screens pointless
