I got their 1080p 43" "dumb" model for $150 not too long ago. I wouldn't choose it for my main living room TV, but it is perfectly fine for what I needed it for and they can't retroactively make it worse like the Roku tv it replaced.

I think mine was around 300 and is 47”. I don’t watch a lot of tv, it’s mostly there for the kids. The 4k picture looks amazing when I do use it. I do most of my gaming on my Steam Deck and I dock that to a 720p Samsung I’ve had for 18 years now (Was very high end when I got it). It is good enough for me.

I’m about to inherit my daughter’s gaming laptop and I’ll plug that in the bedroom and be happy with it too.

$300 isn't too bad of a price for a 47" 4K where they aren't getting extra money from your data and ads. I went for the 1080p model because at the distance we sit at it was impossible to tell the difference based on the 4K Roku TV is replaced.
