i’m in the EU. if i order a screen/panel that can do tv or is smart i pay more on import taxes.
so the obvious is to buy the dumbest panel you can get and slap some SBC on it yourself.
still want to use cable and sat? tv headend is just great for that amd more as you can mix cable, sat and ip tv.
your sbc (or nuc etc) can run stuff like kodi and you’re good to go.
you still want android apps for a tv? go add some cheap fire tv stick. i dont know of any droid app i still would need. used to have “pluto” but turns out thats just boring too.
