The problem is they are showing they’re willing to force firmware updates to use the TV. So even if the setup experience is decent in reviews, that could could absolutely change for the next person (i.e. they could require updates every N months).
If a company pulls that BS, I’m uninterested in buying it. I don’t care if there’s a community workaround, I’m unwilling to support a company that thinks it owns the hardware I bought.
Change Wi-Fi password, connect to Wi-Fi and complete setup, restore old password.
