The Sync Box 8K launched in September 2024, and was a much-needed upgrade that plays nicely with 4K and 8K content at refresh rates up to 120Hz. That was the good news. The bad news was the price tag, which was even higher than that of the 4K box, and prohibitive for many movie buffs and gamers. But not any more.
