One more note. The big TVs are incredibly thin,
though heavy, You can wall mount - they all
have VESA tilting mounts available. As for "off",
you can get a "screen saver", at least for android
TVs, that displays a 4k picture, changing every
few minutes, softly, and displaying the time, and
sometimes the weather, too. With android, you
could put your own pictures on.
