Get an Apple TV box. It turned my 4K TV into an actual 4K TV.

Even HBO max looks great! (People complain about max.)

Apple puts the money into the electronics.

This is separate from Apple TV+, which is an excellent TV service.

I switch services every month. This month is max. Next is Paramount (only because they are offering me a free month to "come back" ). Then a month of Disney.
