TL;DR
Our living room TV gets some abuse from our young kids. Last weekend it stopped showing yellow colors and had a broken pixel line for a while.
We replaced it with a new ‘budget’ TV (NT$20k) which runs Android TV. Not buying anything top of the line until kids grow up.

Comparing to all other Smart TV OS’s, Android TV is just perfect for out use case. Lots of casting from Netflix, YouTube. Other Smart TV’s have it too, but the integration and updates on Android TV via Play Store is better. Now one can watch without necessarily using the phone as remote control, besides the TV now also have the Google assistant, if one feels lazy clicking through then just ask.
Looking at the apps in the Google TV Play Store, I stumbled on the Steam Link app.
And boy, it works amazing!
The TV is connected to our network via LAN. Connecting to my PC Steam was easy. And I can connect wireless headphones and Steam Controller (Bluetooth firmware) via Bluetooth to the TV.
I did just a quick test yesterday. Will try out more games soon.
