Non Android TVs

Currently, I have Samsung LED 32 FHD TV + a Chromecast. The TV is aged and need to change.

Note : I like to buy a Non Smart TV. ( Avoiding Android TV ) .My preferences :

Resolution : **Full HD** > HD Ready 

Size : **40 inch** > 32 inch

OS : **Non smart OS** >  Linux > Web OS > Fire TV 

From Amazon/Flipkart, there are not much options for Non smart ( Dumb ) TVs. Still if you have any ideas or bought any TVs recently, please do share.

You might want to look up commercial model TVs intended for institutional use. Those tend to be the best source of non-smart TVs these days.

I don't have any specific recommendations, I'm pretty happy with a hand me down TV someone gave me around 10y ago so I haven't dug into this much.

Commercial models are significantly more expensive. The ads and shit on consumer models is what makes them cheap.

OP, if you can stand a slightly longer boot time...just get whatever consumer TV you want and never connect it to the internet. If you want streaming, get a cheap Roku stick or similar. That is my plan - I work in commercial AV and it's still cheaper than buying a "pro" display at cost.

Also check with a retail store near you, I bought a dumb TV many years ago. I think it was LG 32inch from a local shop.
