TV as a monitor in 2025

Discussion

Hey yall and thank you for relevant replies.

I am currently in need of monitor and wondering (again) if I should go for TV as a monitor in 2025 or if anything changed in recent years like manufacturers/OS/firmware messing up with my plan to just never use my TV as intended and only use it as output for PC.

I simply can not get behind the fact that OLED and MiniLED monitors cost so much more than (even bigger) TVs. I eventually decided to go for 50''-ish TV or 40'' UW monitor most likely.
My uses are evenly split between office work, PC gaming and watching.

I wanna ask you if you have good or bad experience with TV as monitor etc. I do not wanna ask about your opinion about TV distance, burning out my eyes or why you prefer diff size than me xD
