Hello! Ive had my LG Smart TV for almost 2 years now and i have some issues with it. Apart from the obvious data collection and shady opt-out “do not sell my data” settings theres just a bunch of other magical issues with Jellyfin, WebOS and their apps that annoy me.
Does anyone have any alternative Smart TV OS, tips or tricks? Would love to run another OS entirely that is privacy friendly but I dont even know if its possible.
And who is making 80 inch monitors? Most people don’t want small ass displayed or have the ability to buy a 4k 50 inch monitor.
What a terribly limited and short sighted response.
Commercial series displays. Most of those now have the same (well, same base at least) OS on them though.
I’d say Sharp/NEC would be the only “dumb” professional series displays, at least of the major manufacturers.
You’ll be at around $1500-$3000 for a nominal 80" (they make a 75" and an 86").
Show me a link to a 4k 120 60+ inch monitor. I want to know what you’d specifically consider a reasonable alternative. None of this vague bullshit.
You realize I’m not the same person, right? So maybe change the attitude a bit.
120Hz wasn’t in your original question. For that you’d need to be in direct view LED territory, which is going to be in the $150k+ range, like an FE012I3 (at least with Sharp/NEC).
Sony has a line of Bravia post production OLEDs, the FWD-##A95Ls ( the number is the sizing) which is going to be a phenomenal production quality display. $7k-$10k.
LG and Samsung are all WebOS and Tizen respectively, but the versions are different than the consumer version. So its “smart”, but not in the same way as consumer editions - sampling content and other such things would be a legal nightmare for them. So if you want “smart” but not “consumer smart” you can go that route, but expect about twice the price.
Edit: I suppose I can toss Planar into the mix here, different business purpose and youre not buying them at best buy. They are more of a 24x7 operation design. I don’t think 120hz is on the sale list yet though, those will be part of the UltraRes series.
