I bought a 65" TV in 2013. It’s good enough for me. I don’t need 4k at home. It got zapped after 9 years, but there were tons of power supply boards on eBay for $40 each. Turns out a lot of people break the display and sell the other parts.
And it should stay that way. I don’t want another product with planned obsolescence.
They could only try to end your TV by not supporting its apps because of its age, but luckily you can just plug a computer or a console on it to get all the apps you need.
Still, for now, I enjoy using my TV apps with an alternate launcher like Flauncher instead of the normal Android one.
TVs are also a product that seems to last, at least on my experience.

Most smart TVs have a dumb mode. As long as you can plug in anything you want you should be fine.
