LCD panels do exist. They are just very expensive because they are not made for consumers and have no ads or data collection.

I wish there was a company like Fairphone or Framework laptops but for TVs.

It’s almost like ads and data collection subsidize the hardware and make it cheaper…

Tbh I bought my last tv when 1080p lcd was the hot new thing and it was NOT cheap. If buying a dumb tv/“display” is just the same thing I’m used to? Fine.

These don’t seem to be particularly new panels. $600 and only 97% of the sRGB color space (= ~78% DCI-P3), meanwhile a similarity priced LG “QNED” can do 90-95% of DCI-P3. I’m not sure can even call those TVs HDR, they’re only 8-bit color. None of these models can even remotely compare to a brand new OLED TV.

I’m surprised nobody has yet jail-broken Samsung and LG TVs and made a custom Tizen ROM

Probably too many models with too many varying components for anyone to bother trying…

Maybe that is why they make 20 slight variations of every model.
