I don’t care how thin a TVs is anymore, I just want this missing feature back

Really, I can’t complain too much about the current TV landscape. When I bought a living room TV a few months ago, there were plenty of 4K HDR sets under $1,000 that would’ve absolutely destroyed $2,000 models released just a few years earlier. Roku OS and Google TV are relatively mature platforms, and technologies like HDMI 2.1 and Dolby Vision are almost de facto. Unless you’re going as cheap as possible, it’s safe to say that anything you buy will probably look great. Just make sure to tweak brightness and contrast settings, and always, always disable motion smoothing if it’s on.
