I wish there were more high quality dumb TVs. Most of the dumb TVs I can find today are both very expensive and lack the features I’m looking for like HDR and 120hz+ frame rates.
I know the argument is that the privacy invasions are subsidizing the cost of the TV but I have yet to see non-anecdotal evidence of that and suspect that the price of the TV would be the same either way because the market will only support so much expense.
Where are you getting 120hz content for tv?
Game consoles
What I want to know also
Game consoles.
Look for commercial models.
Such as? If you have a reasonably priced OLED dumb tv with HDR and 120FPS up your sleeve you will be my favorite internet friend.
depends on where you are, I just know that looking at an upgrade earlier this year (I REFUSE smart tvs) we found better jobs on the commercial front.
Ironically we ended up scoring one from our local buy nothing group, but I did find https://hometheateracademy.com/best-dumb-non-smart-tvs/ if it helps.
I grabbed a display TV and haven’t hooked it up to the internet, so far so good. Could look into that.
I use computer monitors for TVs. Mostly because they're smaller and I don't have that much space for stuff. Most have all those features but don't have a smart interface. I plug them in over HDMI and make sure CEC is enabled so I can turn it on and off with a dumb remote the RasPi. Works pretty well actually.
