the UI on our v.cheap hisense is abysmal - slow/laggy, lacking apps etc. thankfully the image quality is good. however, we recently plumbed in one of those new "chromecast with google TV" pucks and... mmmmmmmm... it's lovely. great UI, snappy performance, 4K streaming, all the apps I want (netflix/mubi/eurosport/BT sport/plex)... the remote is excellent too, and can control TV volume and on/off . definitely the way to go imo
doesn't solve the issue of individual apps having questionable UIs tho, admittedly

I thought this too until I changed the habit of a lifetime and didn't buy a cheap TV. I think the TV pricks save the good UIs for the spenny models. Which pisses me off no end because it surely can't be that expensive to make a TV with a menu system that just fucking works. I mean, you can buy a capable smartphone for less than £100 now days. You cant tell me that a £100 smartphone can run Android and Netflix seemlessly but a £1000 telly can't be expected to have usable menus.
