I am considering replacing my old 50" 1080p TV which I use with (external) Chromecast and Roku. I would like a 4K display 60" or greater but I really, really don’t want any smart features. I am aware that I could purchase a commercial display to achieve this and that’s my fallback option. Can anyone here make any useful recommendations? I am in the UK so e.g. ‘Sceptre’ is not available here.

In advance, with respect, I am technically capable (check my post history) but could I ask to please avoid threads along the lines of:

  • ‘non-smart TVs aren’t a thing’ - fallback is a commercial display
  • ‘Nobody wants/buys non-smart TVs’ - I do
  • ‘Any TV not connected to internet is dumb’/ ‘Just don’t connect it’ - This is no longer true since many TVs require a setup before use involving internet access and/or will seek access via open wifi/bluetooth/HDMI.

Thanks!

Edit:

Some commenters seem to be struggling with the ‘why do you care if it connects?’. Some examples why:

    Don’t update it then? 🤷

      Except every time I turn it on it’s asking to be updated before I can watch TV. It’s a nuisance. Still a big upgrade on my old TV which was like a 32" and pretty old, but it’s still irritating.
