> “Any TV worth buying is very likely going to ask to connect to your Wi-Fi, and that’s been the case for many years now,” he says. “If you can find one manufactured recently that isn’t smart, I don’t know that I would trust it to be worth what you’re paying for it, because it’ll likely be missing several other salient features that you may actually want, like Bluetooth compatibility, HDR functionality, built-in channel scanning, or the ability to auto-label and optimize devices by HDMI input.”
The HDMI input labeling thing is nice. When my family comes to visit, it's pretty neat that they can go to inputs and select "Chromecast" or whatever instead of "HDMI 1"
I don't think I would want any of those features.
