This. I don't get why most commenters whinge about smart TV capabilities, when you don't have to actually use that feature.

Princely Just envious of our lovely giant oled displays.

Because some of the TVs themselves whinge at you constantly if you don't connect them to a network now.

Smart TVs are so. slow. Booting. Changing channels. Opening a menu.

Because it run on a computer that won't last as long as a normal tv. If the computer degrade, your experience suffer.

Tbf if its booting from ROM and doing the same job its not going to degrade.

Graphics cards from 20 years ago will still play 20 year old games just fine, its not like that computers job is gonna change anytime soon.
