I bought a TV in November after backlights on my previous one started to fail. I couldn't find a high-end non-smart TV anywhere.
I haven't used any of the 'smart' features yet, it's simply plugged into my AV system and I use that to switch between Kodi, Chromecast and Sky.
Unfortunately, even ARC is a waste of time. I thought I had everything working but every time I changed input it 'forgot' my sound settings, so it'd default back to stereo despite it allowing me to choose DD/DTS passthrough in the settings. Totally frustrating.
