Yours is the first comment in the hundred I've read that links a concrete product. I can't vouch for it, but kudos to you.

    Looked a bit more closely, says it has an embedded signage player running on tizen, wonder the privacy implications. :-/

      Unless you connect it to a network, you should be fine. The 3 HDMI ports give me the impression you’d be using it as a dumb monitor.

        But what if you do want to watch Netflix and Nebula? Then you're going to need a network anyway. I'd like a TV that does that without even trying to spy on me.

          Then you connect it to an Apple TV, or a game console, or a computer.

VA panels aren't great (they're fine, just not great). 350 nits also isn't great. Most people are probably looking for more. It's also pretty overpriced, but I guess that's the price of privacy?

    It’s built to run 16 hours a day, the specs probably derive from that.

Yes, it doesn't have a TV tuner

    This is something I haven’t used in more than ten years. Are you sure you need it?

    • 1317 1 week ago

      yes that's our primary/only use case other than using it as a recepticle for casting from the eye prayer

      I do and I used mine yesterday, but I bridge that gap with an HDHomeRun instead of using my TV's native tuner. There are a lot of good, high def channels available in major metros beyond the required broadcast channel. It is useful to have access to local news now and then with the national feed right after. Likewise, most sports are still available on local broadcast (with some exceptions, like Amazon taking Thursday Night Football). Your experiences aren't everyone's.
