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

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

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've got a 55" from Westinghouse that's probably a decade old by now. It technically has some half-baked smart functions, but they're more like fixed apps than anything where you can install/update/change. It never gets connected though, just used as a monitor for whatever is attached. Cheap off-bramd type boxes are not bad if you're just looking for an output. Lots of times they don't have the time and resources to put into making some big infrastructure and app catalog, so they just focus on making the screen and inputs work.
