The problem with modern TVs isn't with the display tech (which is great compared to CRT), it's the adding of microprocessors and software that auto-updates via the internet, and subsequent enshittification.
This is because software externally controlled by the manufacturer can act as an agent of the manufacturer on hardware you own - with it primary control over your TV isn't really yours, it's theirs and will serve their objectives not yours.
(Such a setup can basically be turned into a way to use your resources to serve their ends and, lo-and-behold, most manufacturers do exactly that)
The pinnacle for TV quality was maybe 10 years ago, when screens were flat and OLED was already available but the TV wasn't running software that auto-updated via the Internet and operated as an after-the-sale agent to serve the interests of the manufacturer in hardware you paid for.
TVs now is just glorified mega tablet
