I'm in the market for a TV and I already use a HTPC as the main device. I am curious about the Sceptre TVs.

How is the image quality? Any input lag?

Some people don't like all of the bloatware and everything else that comes with a "smart" tv, especially people who want to use it as a large HDMI out

Right, I just use it as a display for my streaming device. I'm just wondering if there's any harm in connecting to the internet, updating firmware, then disconnecting.

Not that I know.

But I could provide a definitely wrong answer do someone could step in and answer correctly.

So..
