Recently bought a cheap set from spectre for $150. Forgot to check the res, and it only does 1080, but then again 90% of what I do with that TV is play Switch anyhow. I have a nicer ultra wide on my desk for everything else.
The TV itself works well. The first time set up is the optional search for digital OTA TV channels, and the only "smart" feature is that you can plug in a flash drive with MP3/FLACs and use it as a music player for some reason, would've been cool if it played mp4s too. Then again, that's what the HDMI in is for.
The menu/feature set feels very 2009 and I love it for that. Luckily the picture, bezel, and price don't.
