    Yeah I don’t need pesky wires or plugs to connect my surround sound system to my fancy smart TV, I can just use hopes and dreams

      I have a sound bar that can apparently connect via Bluetooth but I can’t work out why anyone would do that. You’ve gone to the trouble of getting an expensive soundbar so why would you then connect it via an inferior system that results in worse sound quality?

      TBF you can still use the optical port.

      Like I said to the person who started this conversation, why even bother with more than one HDMI port? Once you hook up a PC, literally all the games and media you could ever want to consume is available to you. Hell, if you don’t game and don’t need a PC for office work, you could get away with just the TV alone.

      Not saying that TV manufacturers should start removing ports; just making a point.
