Never update the firmware on devices you have no issues with (if you have the choice). I learned that the hard way when I updated my LG B2 this year and now it has VRR flicker at any framerate below its refreshrate… And ofc I can‘t downgrade.

Updates for big corporate stuff rarely come with useful features or improvements anyway, just with more ads.

I‘m ranting, apologies.

You say that as if companies weren’t pushing over the air firmware updates these days

That‘s why I said „if you have the choice,“ I certainly won‘t connect my next TV to the internet.
