Not as bad as this, but when I moved to a new town I got a free big TV with my new ISP. I was going with that ISP anyways so a free 4k HDR TV on top was a nice bonus.
I wish I had gotten some other bonus. Viewing angle is atrocious and it is impossible to get rid of the input lag (no there isn't a gaming mode or similar) so no games with precise timing can be played.
So now we have a big living room TV that is too good to replace with something better but bad enough to be a little bit annoying.
It really doesn't sound too good to replace? It sounds like you got free junk, and haven't actually bought a TV yet?
Don't have the budget anyways. And it's good enough for the wife and kids, they don't see any issues. And by now I'm disabled and can't get into the living room anyways.
I usually just assume that free shit given away as part of some other sale is going to be bad or shit quality. They probably bought a big batch of them for real cheap because they weren't selling so great in stores and eventually someone decided to just get rid of that inventory maybe at a loss.
Give it to your parents or some other older people who would use it just as a TV and buy yourself a decent TV.
Why not sell it?
Trade in for something slightly "worse" then?
