Since at one point in the near future I'll be shopping for a TV, is there such a thing as a good quality panel TV that is dumb? I intend to hook it up to a PC or a set top box. Alternatively, is there a smart TV that can be easily bootloader unlocked and rooted without consequences (similarly to how a Pixel phone can)? I realise this is even more niche than unlocking/rooting a phone, but still, someone might have ideas.

Try a Spectre t.v. they're made for digital signage. I got one and hooked it up to a media server.

Seems promising, but also seems to be an US thing. I should've mentioned I'm in the EU.

Ah, my bad. Sorry.
