In 2006 I had to spend extra savings on my mother to get her into a Medicaid nursing home. She had the best TV in the facility as I spent nearly four grand on one of Sony's first 42 inch HD flat screens. and an early HDMI input as well as a USB slot for content streaming. I have my own Mirrocast on my LG TV and laptop so I hooked it up to an older model. It had some minor issues with some of my 1080P video files, but the screen computer on my laptop is fine. It was better on the newer 2012 Sharp flat screen model and I think that's what I'll keep as Sony only has one HDMI port and I use that for the streamer. If you want to download videos or view a game in larger size or even work remotely on your computer, that's great. The new model with improved TV now connects to 5G as well as 2.4G which is the fastest of some older models but 2.4G. It is difficult to transfer 4K or even 1080P data efficiently. A similar device in 2012 when I was using this TV in Chicago to stream movies from a Blueray disc to my laptop. It was a box the size of a streamer, today they are much better and more compact. You can also stream from cell phones and tablets. highlighted.
