TV & Home Theatre

Spring is an exciting time if you love colour and beauty. I’m not talking about flowers and trees; Samsung’s annual model changeover happens in May each year, bringing exciting new things to the home theatre space. Two new 4k models are hitting shelves soon and I had a chance to visit Best Buy Headquarters to see them in person. Are they everything we’ve come to hope from Samsung? Read on to find out.

Sharp and Insignia Roku TV models will be available for purchase this month at Best Buy stores in Canada and from BestBuy.ca. By becoming the default Smart TV software on these HDTVs, Roku OS  enables quick and easy access to tons of content and online services for connected TVs.  

Western Digital (WD) has been around since 1970 and is one of the world’s largest hard disk drive manufacturers. I have two Western Digital external hard drives for backing up my computer and they have been great! But WD makes other devices including media streaming devices, which they have had a lot of success with. I recently had the opportunity to test out the WD TV Live Media Player, which is their third generation device so they have continually improved it. Since I already have an Apple TV and a Roku device, I was able to compare the WD TV Live to its’ competitors, and it did extremely well.

  Sound bars have become the most popular way to improve your entertainment sound experience because they are reasonably inexpensive, simple to setup, and don’t take up much room. TV speakers are small and flat so they just can’t cut it, so a sound bar is a great way to get better sound. The good news is that there are a lot of bars to choose from, but how do you choose? Here are the factors that I think you should be considering in your purchase.
