I have a Sony Bravia that was ludicrously pricy but seems to have been made by people who genuinely love what they do. It's got rough edges, but it's a very well-behaved product. Among other things, you can basically disable all the Google Home stuff and have it run as a borderline "dumb" TV.

(I'm aware of Sony's history here. Ain't no saints in this business, I'm afraid.)



Sony sold its TV business to TCL early this year: https://www.tomsguide.com/tvs/sony-just-handed-its-tv-busine...


It is a new company or joint venture with TCL owning 51%.

Huh, interesting. I’m glad I’m in a place to be able to sit on my hands for a few years. Could be OK, but the Bravías are really pretty special.


It's a shame that Sony does not run TV business in here, South Korea anymore. All we have is Samsung/LG and Chinese vendors like TCL/Xiaomi.

My best try is jailbroken LG OLED.
