Hi, does anyone own a non smart tv which is 4k and around 48"? I’m currently own a Samsung TV but to use any of the apple TV or game consoles you have to go through their painfully unresponsive smart menus and its driving me up the wall. ive looked online but it’s hard to avoid smart TVs, they seem to be everywhere and a lot of options I came across are US only. the budget is upto £400, thanks in advance

    I’ve never used apple TV (because fuck apple) but I have a Philips Ambilight, and there’s no issue with games consoles. Plug in an hdmi and select the source. Not sure why you’d be having so much trouble, as any smart TV I’ve used is the same. It’s one button.

      perhaps its just Samsung TVs that cause me the trouble then. if I turn on the tv, just selecting the source menu involves going through their horrible menus. I find their remote to be very unresponsive too. I’ll look into some Phillips ones though. thank you

        Yes, I don’t recognise your issues from any previous telly. I just turn on, select the input and go.
