My Samsung boots fast, goes straight to whatever input I left it on, and doesn’t have smart functions because I don’t have it on the network and never accepted the license for them. I update the software occasionally and then disconnect it again.
It’s older though. I’d try and see if you can play with one somewhere and if they’ll let you reset it to factory.
Why even update the software? If it works don't fix it
It does device recognition and updates have improved that, but really there’s no need.
I have a Samsung and a Vizio and the Samsung hands down is the best for ignoring the smart features.
Samsung bought in 2022 and Vizio in 2021
