qirex posted:it's now a data point on rtings Do the ads that are listed in that grid only show up when using the "smart" functionality or is it as bad as the Samsung picture where you will see ads when you change the volume? If it's the latter then WTF? Some of those TVs are > $3000 and I would be pissed to see that kind of intrusive advertising after shelling out that kind of money.

Some of those TVs are > $3000 and I would be pissed to see that kind of intrusive advertising after shelling out that kind of money. i have the top tv on that chart (not bragging or anything heh 😏) and the ad is easy to ignore and kinda relevant. its about movies that you can watch on one of the apps bundled in with the tv. its on the left of the main menu takes like 5-10% of the width maybe 3 years from now theyll start putting viagra ads in there but for now its not bad

Oh poop  I bought the last-before-smart-TV:s top-of-the-line Sony because the panel is drat good but since it's been over five years already I hope it's just going to last. The scaling on this one is loving great.Any "smart" feature is just going to be obsolete in a year or two I mean gently caress I've got Play Station's up the butt.

If the answer is yes, then I think that's wrong. If the TVs built-in launcher for HBO GO displays an ad I don't care but if the volume control does I do. If the TV displays ads randomly while I watch cable TV then it's going straight back to where I bought it.

I have a Samsung tv and I use the built in YouTube because it can actually stream at 4K plus it's nice to be able to use the normal remote I know I should disable the tv's wifi and just use my chromecast but I guess I am just a dumb normie that doesn't want to have to deal with ever more CJ'ing poo poo if I can avoid it Linguica fucked around with this message at 05:33 on Feb 9, 2017 |

OH WAIT I just remembered the overriding reason why I didn't just use my chromecast: I have a soundbar and the setup util on the tv to use my tv remote to change the soundbar volume literally crashes / resets itself if I try to set up more than two inputs to use the soundbar

Those notes on ads are loving useless, though; I looked up my tv (a LG) and they've rated it a 0 because it has "ads" exclusively in the video/music/whatever store app that I've only ever even opened once to see what it was when i bought the drat thing. My parent's old Panasonic plasma, though, got a software update that turned on banner ads in the loving volume indicator.
