What tv can't you just type a channel number in, or press an input button to switch inputs?

If you don't plug it into the internet it's not going to be a smart tv

The new Samsungs (and others) have a remote without numbers... Thankfully the old remotes still work (and even better).

Without numbers on?

Could replace the remote with a Old Person Remote perhaps.

Just looked for a random tv, it has a normal remote to me https://ao.com/product/vel50fo01uk-veltech-tv-black-66496-10... scroll right on the photos
