I'm in the UK and own two LG Smart TVs (a 65SM8600PLA and a 82UN85006LA).
I've never seen any ads on the 65" model, and the 82" model had a toggle to switch them off.
In the past, I was always against buying any device with features integrated into it (like a TV/DVD combo), but after actually using a smart TV (I had a Panasonic Smart TV before these LG TVs), I can't see any reason why I'd want to stop using the built-in apps like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, BBC iPlayer, and YouTube.
The apps work well, and the convenience of them being integrated into the TV is hard to argue with.
Sure, I could watch the same content with the Chromecast, PC, Xbox Series X, or DVR - all connected via HDMI, but what would that actually offer over the TV's own apps?
