As far as I can tell that's the only good excuse I've seen to justify the price point for performance. Don't get me wrong i want one but not because of the performance.
Essentially it has hardware to be able to turn act as a entertainment center and be turned on/off by your TV and auto switch audio devices etc. I don't fully know what the features are because I don't use smart TVs so I might be getting it wrong, but I know home theater nerds will buy it just for those features.
