People need to stop buying the thinnest thing.
So what even is the point of the "thinnest" tv?
Is that 1/8th of an inch somehow going to REALLY make your TV not fit on the mount over your fireplace or something?
You do not mount a tv over a fireplace. The heat from it will warp the tv.
Mine's been mounted over my fireplace for years without warping.
