New acquisitions and old hardware going strong

This december 2023, we finally bought a new TV. Its: VW 109 cm (43 inches) QL Frameless Series 4K Ultra HD Smart QLED TV VW43QUW1 (Black). This cost 22000/- INR and for a 43" QLED TV that's very good. Earlier I considered Hisense 43" QLED for 27K. But later thought of saving some money. This TV has below specs: Brand ‎VW Manufacturer ‎Beston Sky Vision Pvt.

weird resolution with our Samsung TV

We have a 32" Samsung TV that was bought by my father and it advertised Full-HD resolution. But it did not have good picture quality. Then it reached me when parents moved in here. Then my monitor went kaput and as this TV was unused, I decided to use it. Turns out the text quality is really bad and it has resolution-wise issues. I experimented around and then found out that the panel is actually not FHD. But it has WSXGA+ resolution - 1680x1050. So at this resolution this makes a decent good monitor. But really weird case of hardware.
