https://www.sceptre.com/ makes dumb, consumer TVs. As far as I can tell they are basically the only brand doing it.

Are they good, though? I, too, want a "dumb" TV, but I still want high color accuracy, refresh rate, viewing angles, etc. I don't necessarily want a Hotel/Office Waiting Room TV.

Also, taking a look at the site, and not a single 4K UHD TV is in stock at the moment. Yikes!

Can't vouch for the TVs, but I owned one of their 1080P monitors in the last 2000s/early 2010s. Upper-middle quality, very basic OSD, great customer service. Used the monitor for ~7 years before upgrading to a 4k, sold it still working with original cables & box.

Walmart has better stock of Sceptre TVs last time I checked. Unfortunately they only make dumb 4K TVs up to 75"

(I was looking for 85", so I just unplugged the WiFi module in the TV I bought before I turned it on the first time.)
