If you can afford, Apple tv. Otherwise, Fire tv is your best option. Even on my smart tv’s I setup firetv 4k for better UI.
Recently, I purchased Apple tv and it blow my mind in terms of UI/multitasking, the app stays in background not like Android tv/Fire tv where it reloads after sometime and the smoothness while scrolling is top notch.
For peace of mind and "no-regret-later", only choice is Android TV...
I have used WebOS, Tizen and Android TV.
If you want best Apps, services (OTT) availability then Android OS.
If you want fluidity, fast startup, fast apps then either WebOS OR Tizen.
WebOS with Magic remote is great in terms of ergonomics.
Also LG, Samsung devices are superior in terms of screen sharing Vs Android tv.
Overall Sony's implementation combines best of both worlds.
I think any TV with Firestick is best in terms of load on the TV's motherboard since it will work as only a passive audio video device and all work done will be handled by Firestick. Use the default OS till the warranty period and switch to Firestick when the warranty is about to expire.
I need mobile screen cast and video conference feature. Wi fi connectivity, and app support

any dumb TV + firestick
android tv/firestick is best for app support else tizen/webos is good enough has all OTT apps, tizen has samsung tv plus with free channels, if elderly people gonna use the tv its better to buy tizen/webos as its less complicated than android

Too much for it but i cherish it no doubt, can pay 10k for the same, but i doubt i can ever get it below 13k.

64gb is way too much for me anyway so maybe i can get it around 10k in dubai.
no urgency whatsoever, a friend is planning a trip to dubai in december, will ask him to get it from dubai then.
thank you.
I’ll go to Dubai again for 15 pro max around third week of Nov. I can get the Apple tv for you, tag me during that time if you want.
You can check the aed price on Amazon dubai, offline it’s 5-10% cheaper.

thanks a lot for being so generous and helpful about it. A friend with his wife is going early december tickets done i guess. he will get it for me. i will just ping you to ask the particular store from which you are planning to buy so that i can direct him accordingly, he is also going buy some apple devices.
i think in some 2-3 years they might launch apple tv with m1 chip lol, one can connect a wirless controller and literally make a mini playstation out of it through apple arcade

Meena bazaar, dreams city, seven wonders would be enough to visit but make sure to visit few shops and than decide which one is offering you at the best price.
Also, tell your friend if it’s first time to stay away from local thugs who will offer oil/crap to reduce weight and will take you to a corner and loot all your money, plenty of video’s available on YouTube.
Apple Arcade is useless for me, I tried many trials but didn’t like it much, the only game I play these days is COD Mobile on my iPad during weekends.
Good luck for your upcoming Apple TV.
