Sounds great! I'll gladly pay $200usd for it.
I skimmed the article and didn't see any mention of price, but I expect it to be 10x what I'm willing to spend on a display.
Also if it's a smart tv I'm no longer interested at all.
Allmost all tvs are smart tvs these days, just never connect it to wifi and use external devices like an HTPC.
This. I don't get why most commenters whinge about smart TV capabilities, when you don't have to actually use that feature.
Because it run on a computer that won't last as long as a normal tv. If the computer degrade, your experience suffer.
Tbf if its booting from ROM and doing the same job its not going to degrade.
Graphics cards from 20 years ago will still play 20 year old games just fine, its not like that computers job is gonna change anytime soon.
I expect it won't be long before they start including cellular modems.
I'll be sticking with my Sceptre then
Normally I’d say just leave it off your network, but I’ve read some awful stuff Hisense does to coerce users into connecting their TVs to their network.
