The Xbox One S for example has two separate Mediatek radios. One for networking the other for the controller.

There's another option: Buy and hook up a dumb hdmi converter to the panel. Taobao has these (low latency, niche gamer market)

The Xbox is doing it that way because they need the lowest input latency possible for the controllers. Blocking the antenna for network operations delays the user input. A TV doesn't have that problem and certainly won't have two antennas.

We are effectively helpless against those tinier and tinier SoCs and the only option is not to buy.
