Re:Show HN: Building a 42-inch E-Ink frame for generative art by mikewarot on Tuesday October 10, 2023 @07:28PM (#37839102)
As a check against this, I looked for 42" computer monitors, which don't display ads. There are $600 4k 42" monitors in stock at CDW, for example. The same size 4k SmartTVs are about $300. So, yes... there appears to be about a 50% discount for TVs vs Computer Displays, part of which could be a subsidy, most of which I suspect is volume driving down the cost of production.

Double check the refresh rate, input latency, and color gamut for your comparisons. Computer monitor user concerns are quite different than tv screen users.
