Are there any dumb TVs with good panels and HDMI CEC for sale? That would be perfect to use with an Nvidia shield or apple TV or equivalent..

I doubt you'll get a dumb TV anymore but just don't connect it to the internet and set it to an hdmi input

Honestly I never watch TV aside from anime and I live alone so a simple PC monitor works fine even if I'm just playing console games ultimately the only time I see myself needing a monitor the size of a TV is when I'm sharing a screen with 4 or more people otherwise PC monitors are high definition and don't have any of this bloatware and even if you don't play videogames a simple laptop that can run a Internet browser can get you everything you want to watch and have addblock on top of that quite frankly I'm sure if someone started selling something that can make your phone output a HDMI output will instantly kill the smart TV market

That's the longest run in sentence I've seen in awhile. Now reformatted with punctuation and discrete sentences!

Anyhow, HDMI output from phones has existed for years and it's not an uncommon feature. I can connect my Samsung S22 to my TV both wired and wirelessly.

Watch out you're about to kill the smart tv market with that thing

I actually have no problems using my Samsung Q90 or the Samsung I had prior in conjunction with my Apple TV. Not sure if it’s a brand thing or I’ve gotten lucky but I’ve never had any issues like described in this thread pretending it’sa dumb tv and using it that way.

I’d still prefer a true dumb tv though.
