As OP mentioned, it's not really an option. unless you want to pay double or triple. I'd buy non-smart if it was a reasonable price and had the feature set I want.

I don't have a smart TV, hell there are still lots of them dumb ones around. If the day comes where I can not get a non smart TV, I will not have a TV.
