Samsung scored highest on https://www.rtings.com/ for my criteria, and I'm happy with the purchase. I didn't connect it to the network, of course. (I had to stop my handyman from connecting it and he seemed to think I was crazy for insisting.)

I installed a Pihole and set an edge router to direct any port 53 traffic that wasn’t from the Pihole, to the Pihole.

That made a Samsung behave a little better. But giving it no network access is better.
