As mentioned, I think that 1A and 1B on the 753 are the best (non lie-flat) seats in the entire United fleet.
About half of the 753s have "personal device entertainment" - you'll need a laptop, or a tablet/phone with the United app, and you can stream movies/TV on demand for free. The other half have DirecTV, which allows you to watch live TV or about a dozen looping movies (not on-demand) which is also free in F. People tend to have strong opinions about which one is better, but in my opinion both are ok (not great), although I honestly pass most of my time on planes reading an actual book.
