Book: A Complaint Free World

43” 4K Amazon FireTV

Posted on December 8, 2022November 15, 2025 by Philip

I wasn’t sure if a 43” 4k TV would serve as a good monitor at my editing station. Not only does it help see the entire project timeline, but multiple windows is far better than swiping between pages when posting content to various accounts and platforms. It’s a great low-cost option.
