Look into "NEC Commercial Displays". They're intended for use as signage and things, but most of them are full TVs with ATSC tuners, remote controls, speakers, and everything. They generally do not have any smart functionality, but often have serial ports or interfaces for adding your own. They are often slightly more expensive than the more encumbered displays, but not by much.
The biggest problem that I've found with them is that they're not available at your local store, so you pretty much have to just buy one sight-unseen and hope it looks good when it arrives.
I got the NEC E554 from Amazon, and left a 3-star review for it there.
- rsync 8y agoSeconded. I have a NEC P461 as a secondary/movie display in my office. It's the thin bezeled NEC that you see in airports worldwide. Love it. EDIT: as a followup, I should mention that circa 2018 there aren't really any commercial/signage displays that have 4k resolution. There are lots of "4k signage solutions" but they are all groups of quad monitors. It appears there is not yet demand (or sufficient product dev) in 2018 for 4k signage monitors. It sort of makes sense given that a departures/arrivals screen doesn't really need 4k ...
- chiph 8y agoLooks like NEC has added some very recently, like the C651Q-AVT2, which is a 65" 4K display with an ATSC tuner. https://www.necdisplay.com/p/displays/c651q-avt2 https://www.necdisplay.com/p/displays/c651q-avt2
- edraferi 8y agoDo any of the TV review sites test these? That would be very helpful since you can't showroom them.
