Someone finally did it: a high-end TV with a DisplayPort connection actually is coming this year, including 4K 180Hz support (www.techradar.com)

Lol, such bs. When HDTVs were made 'smart', and then 3D, the only ones sold were 40"+ and £3,000+. Took about three years for that price to drop 90%. But this is garbage news, who still wants a television in this century? Pubs, community spaces and that's about it. Monitors are significantly cheaper, with less bloat and software lock.

This is so out-of-touch it's unreal.

That's some protagonist syndrome.

Well, I might not want a TV.. all I really want is a 60"+ high quality, high refresh rate, 4k+ panel to game, work and watch media on...

On wait; thats literally an HDTV minus the tuner.

The only thing that makes it a TV IS the tuner... and honestly it's not bad to have in an emergency or for local OTA stuff anyway. If I never use it then having it doesn't matter.

People who watch movies or tv series a lot and who care about image quality? Couch gamers? I couldn’t get a decent 65“ monitor. But my TV has a very good image, supports 2160p with 144Hz, VRR, HDR, etc.
And at no point did my TV force me to go online. I can 100% just ignore the software. What more could I want?
