Hello guys, I'm looking for something that seems to be obscure enough that a few google searches weren't enough to help me find it. I want a TV, that is 1080p, not 4K, is as large as possible without 1080p looking too ugly from it being too large (I'm guessing the 40-50 inch range is as high as I can go?). It also absolutely shouldn't be a smart TV, has no smart features at all. I know you would say I can simply not use them, but no, I absolutely refuse to have them present. It also shoudln't be some entry level budget TV with low build quality and image quality, and is instead a high end model with great image quality and build quality. Oh, and it shouldnt be OLED, I guess either IPS or VA would be fine, it needs to be able to last a long, long time.
Seems like theres no such thing on the current market, all current high end models are 4K smart TVs, so I'm fine with it being an old model that I'm gonna be looking to get used. Thing is, I want the absolute best such TV ever made, The absolute best 1080p dumb TV of all time, but I cant find info online about which model in specific should I be searching for.
I'm going to connect it to a PC and 7.1 surround speakers, so really the most important bit would be the panel quality. Basically all I'm gonna use it for is watching 1080p movies and shows straight off the PC. I'm confident I wont be going up to 4K as 1080p looks good enough for me and 4K takes up a lot more HDD space so it's harder to build up a large collection of 4K movies and shows than a large collection of 1080p movies and shows. I won't actually watch any television on it, playing movies and shows off the PC is really all it's ever gonna be used for.
I'm currently using a 32" Philips 1080p dumb TV which I bought many years ago, it does the job well but it was just an entry level budget model even back then, so Im sure theres higher quality models than that, and going up in size would be nice too. So I want to gift it to my mother who is still using a CRT, and replace it with the best 1080p dumb TV model ever made. Do you guys know which model that is?
