Got a Sony Bravia OLED and it's set up as a dumb TV, turns on instantly + I never see the Smart TV UI, not even a logo.
What I did was decline everything at setup, hook up to the Internet via Ethernet once to update, unplug Ethernet and set it to turn on to last input.
That's just a smart tv acting dumb. Or a smart TV that was taught wrong, as a joke.
"I must apologize for Wimp Lo. He is an idiot. We have purposely trained him wrong, as a joke."
"Hah ! [Tittering ] If you've got an ass, I'll kick it."

Yep, the new Bravias with Android TV or whatever give you a choice as a part of the first time setup that essentially disables all the smart features. I had the same experience.
