Sceptre is fantastic for this.

Zero smart features, and all modern capabilities. It's also a TV, as opposed to a computer monitor, so it has the expected TV speakers and ports.

I've always had a poor opinion of Sceptre from this, but again, it could just be an out of date prejudice.
...but it doesn't have any of the smart TV BS. Still takes too long to power on, IMO.
It takes wayyyyy too long to power/boot up.
That being said, I just hook up my own speakers.
I’d guess the panels are all pretty common.
That means usually in order to get the best imagine quality you also have to buy the model with the most smart features at a higher price point - even if you don't intend to use them.
I often forget to consider stuff like consistent/quality back lighting, but it really does make a difference.
