I don't get that one.
I suggest TCL. I have one about 43” that I use for occasional watching, gaming, and as a computer monitor. Works well. Have a few techie friends who suggest the same. Vizio used to be pretty great, I’ve heard mixed reviews recently.
My antenna won't pick up the 13 (PBS) channels. It used to but something changed.
Smart tvs can send your data to the manufacturer. They can listen to your conversations and transfer them. Do some research. There used to be reporting on this years ago but now that is considered a great thing.
suggestion is to get a regular tv and a roku. Philips is very good as is Sharp Aquos. Do not know if Toshiba still makes tvs but their regza line was good. You can also get some great deals at estate sales. Most tvs are considered disposable in today’s society.
To add, have a leaf antenna. Live miles away from anywhere. I get 40 or so stations, some are repetitive but not all. It says it is 50 mile range, I can get signal from further away.

You might try rescanning the channels; that will sometimes help. At my place in Norman, there were some channels I could only get in the fall and winter when the trees went dormant. In south Tulsa you'd think I'd be able to get all the local channels, but channel 8 and its sub channels are a total crapshoot. I picked up an amplified Winegard flat antenna (mainly for the longer cable), and it helped a lot, but channel 8 is still a crapshoot, though I can occasionally watch Comet and at least see its schedule in the onscreen guide where it used to only show the channel placeholder.
Yeah I used to get those channels in the winter but not anymore. I just have one of the leaf indoor antennas to catch the local weather and maybe watch GRIT now and then. I've rescanned many times but it hasn't helped.
I mostly stream movies and shows to a tablet from a WiFi hotspot and I'm just looking for a t.v. that I can stream to instead. I don't think I need anything fancier than that and I sure don't need one that has Alexa or a camera watching me.

Get a $40 dollar Roku stick you can put in your HDMI port and watch anything you want as long as you have wifi and it doesn't have to be mega bit streaming either. If I were closer, I'd let you try mine. We use it on a dumb TV in the bedroom of the RV. Gets everything the smart TV does in the living area.
OR, Amazon is having their Prime days with electronics being the feature In the second week of July I think it is. $400 smart TV's going for a tad under $300.
