I can't agree more, but the choice in dumb TVs is limited. In the end the best option seems to be a video projector, but I really dislike the image quality v.s.

Any recommendations?
- femto113 7y agoDon't try to buy a "TV", buy a "monitor". The ones sold for digital signage may be your best bet depending on the size you're looking for.
- bentcorner 7y agoYou can try looking into commercial TVs (aka digital signage). These are displays with usually few smarts in them, and also designed to be on 24/7. You'll likely pay more than a regular consumer TV.
- troydavis 7y agoI tried this. At least for larger sizes, the price premium is often 2x and finding HDR - and sometimes even 4K - is hard: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21664952 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21664952
- clement_b 7y agoOK. I switched TV two months ago. I considered purchasing the biggest PC monitor and work it from there but the size threw me off. Ended up buying an LG TV because it seemed that WebOS was the best choice when it comes to performance. I use to have an expensive Sony Bravia TV powered by Android TV and that was the slowest experience I have had on a device since the 'bad Windows PC era' of ~2000 - ~2010. If anyone in the TV industry is reading this, there is a market for dumb TV panels. Happy to pay a premium for that the same way I was happy to pay a premium to have 4k early on!
