Looking for a 4k tv without smart functions (feddit.de)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

109 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Hey do anybody know where you get a tv that supports 4k and does not have that locked up smarttv shit?

If there are none, does anybody know a tv that boots fast(less than 30 seconds) and displays an hdmi input by default without the need to choose the input from a menu.

Thanks in advance.

And sorry if I am in the wrong place.

I have an older model of this Spectre. Can confirm it looks fantastic for the price and no smart features .

I paid $200 for mine. Do not buy the Walmart version. Also this seems overpriced for this unit

Do not buy the Walmart version.

I'm pretty sure Sceptre is specifically Walmart's TV brand, much like Insignia is Best Buy's brand.

No, Sceptre is an independent company. ONN is Walmarts in-house electronics brand.

That's probably what I was confusing them for, actually. I forgot that Onn isn't just Android TV boxes.

I bought mine from Amazon, but that was probably 5 years ago. Sceptre has fallen big time since the early 2000's, but that would be a new low for them.

I don't think so. I bought one from Menards years ago.

Also seeing ScAmazon and Worst Buy selling them online.

Ahh, okay, that makes sense then. I've only ever seen them at Walmart where I am.
