Literally this. Let me use my own fucking box and my own goddamn pc how I want with big monitor. Also put DP on it fuck HDMI. I don’t need trackers in my bloody tv OS. My tv has an OS!!! That’s ridiculous. Sorry this is one of those things I’ve always been super pissed about.
Man I’m really dreading buying a new TV. Been going strong with my plasma for years. I don’t need any “smart” features in a tv. From what I understand you either get a good TV or a “dumb” TV, pick one.
I would immediately return that as defective. I’d rather use that old 1980’s portable TV that’s been collecting dust in my closet since they shut down the analog TV broadcasts.
So start making more dumb TVs and speakers. That way they don’t need much memory.
Linear components like power amplifiers are made from the same material as digital circuitry, and they use a lot more of it.
I just want a straight up monitor with no built in wifi or Bluetooth or even speakers.
Just display the image I want it to when I want it to.

But a good tv, and don’t connect it to the internet. Apple TV or Shield device.
televisions of the near future when you first turn them on: “Internet connection and account required to complete initial product set up.”
