What’s… The least crappiest TV os experience?
A smart TV with android/ android tv/ google TV/ those custom xiaomi/one plus/ moto/ Samsung or tizen or web os?
Or just a dumb TV + streaming stick?
The reason? I don’t want to be encumbered by “you can’t install this app” nonsense.
Something open or accessible at least
ive seen this asked a few times the best answer is a “retail display panel” combined with your choice of input device… its basically a reliable, dumb screen with no inherent OS. theyre pricier as they are made to last a bit longer that home screens.
Retail displays have great brightness but generally bad contrast and refresh rate sadly :/
Personally I go with the external streaming device. At least can be easily replaced/upgraded during the lifetime of the TV, unlike an onboard system.
