Anything that has the word "smart" in it.
Where do you find a non-smart TV these days? Seems like nobody makes them anymore
Any good TV will be a smart TV. Just don't connect it to the internet and it'll effectively be another basic TV.
Actually worse than a basic TV, because almost every button on the screen or on the remote will try to do some action involving internet or smthg, giving you an error message after 15s freeze time trying to fetch data from that unplugged cable
Basic TV have no netflix button, no personal folder, no data management settings, not trying to anticipate what button you will want to push and push it in advance for you.
Even if you don't use them, if these options are not here, it makes the TV simpler, better, faster, stronger
