I’m frankly flabbergasted to not see the US on the list.
We’re smart enough to not plug them in. Also who watches TV anyway? You can’t even talk to anyone on TV like you can here. TV is stupid. Good riddance.
users should avoid downloading apps outside of Google Play or third-party firmware images that promise extended and “unlocked” functionality.
The Sony Bravia I have now is the first Android device I have ever owned. It is also, coincidentally, the first TV I have had to hard reboot on a regular basis because the HDMI stack keeps crashing.
I have never and will never allow this thing to go online.
I have a Bravia, and the picture is second to none. Better than any other I’ve seen, including other OLEDs…
But holy shit is the software slow. Fuck “smart” TVs
I guess nothing’s changed then haha. I have a 2015 LCD Bravia. No longer my main TV, but it’s been awesome.
But the delay between turning it on and being able to switch inputs… Jesus.
Mine is several years old at this point so could be better now… It’s even worse for me, there is no rhyme or reason to the (several second long) input lag. Seems to be getting worse with age.
If you factory reset your Bravia and then decline all the Google features (don’t sign in, etc.) it’s about as close to a dumb TV as you can get these days.
Lmao “smart” TVs
My TV and computer monitor are deny-listed on my router, and I’m angry that I even have to do that.
Your monitor is “smart”?
Yes, tragically. Don’t buy a Samsung Odyssey monitor like I did. It takes 7 button presses to change the input and there’s a Disney+, Netflix, and Prime Video dedicated buttons on the remote.
I’m looking to “down”-grade ASAP.
