This is mostly useless, except to justify buying a bigger TV. However, I did learn:
- For most popular high end models, the 65 inch models are cheapest / sq inch (e.g Sony A95L, Samsung S90D, LG G4). For most others, it’s the 75 inch models.
- TCL S551F 55" scores the lowest ($0.17/sq inch)
- The lowest scoring OLED is the Samsung S85D ($0.55/sq inch)
- For 100 inches, Hisense QD7 is the cheapest ($0.37/sq inch). For 85 inches, it’s the TCL S551F ($0.22/sq inch)

I want a 3 axis chart of price, size, and number of ads in the UI.
I doubt this will hold up now that they’re owned by Walmart, but I’ve gotten exactly zero ads on Vizio panels since I first bought one in 2017. I have two at the moment and they’re both effectively dumb displays with no network access.
At least in the case of the Hisense TV I got for my grandparents, a “glitch” with accessibility controls (makes directional inputs unresponsive or multi-press at times) just so happens to make remapping the sponsored remote buttons impossible, as well as breaking the most common method of changing the system launcher, so screen size alone isn’t everything.
Although Hisense still tries to reinstall sponsored apps after I delete them, using Launcher Manager to set a custom launcher that allows for the hiding of unwanted applications and channels made it much more usable for my grandparents.
Unfortunately I wasn’t able to redirect YouTube voice input commands to SmartTube Next, so if I ever replace it, that’ll be a factor in my decision too.
Now filter by display technology.
What about the nits man
Display technologies are a bit confusing, but this should give you a general idea: https://imgur.com/a/PhTFNZ2
And the type of HDR they support. I got lucky finding a philips a couple years ago that just supports all types so I don’t have to worry about it.
You could also move the TV closer to the sofa.
Unless they’re priced by if they have built in ads or not, it’s useless.
does anyone use their native smart TV UI anyway?
LG and Samsung have been caught uploading screenshots of your HDMI inputs too, so it’s not like it’s any better

which you can opt out from and/or just not put your TV on a network.
As long as the TV doesn’t have internet access, it can’t do much with it
Outside sarcastic internet forums? Probably, yeah.
If screens were only about size, I’d be easy.

Well, I stand by it.
Righteous!
