As much as this is a hell no from me I will give them credit on one point: at least they’re being upfront about the data collection thing. How many companies already collect your data but bury it in the fine print and tiptoe around it when questioned? Especially on a product that I PAID for?
If it wasn't most likely a scam sure
You're getting way more ads than ever before though. It's not particularly worth it.

“If something is free, YOU are the product.”
😂😂 Matt is literally super excited about "Picture in Picture" welcome to 1997 big dog
and Austin saying it’s not a thin* when there’s literally a TV channel that operated for decades doing just that…hell, The Weather Channel and news networks still do that!
What some might call, "the worst idea ever"
Your comment showed right about a vision pro ad, and I could only think "so true!" 😂😂😂
...i could live with that free TV
...
...*grabs cardboard and tape to cover the adverts screen*
I think the double screen layout like that would do better in the high end monitor space. Take out the soundbar and slide that bottom screen up to the top one, maybe angle the bottom one up a little or have it on a hinge so it can be adjusted to people's preferences. People could use it for displaying/monitoring system temps and such, some editors might also like it for the little bit of extra screen real-estate where there might normally just be a gap between the monitor and desk
Kinda like a Geminos stacked monitor, but with a shorter bottom screen? I'd buy that for sure
I remember I accidentally did something similar on my parents old TV. Don't remember what brand it was or where they got it from ( think it was on the curb being thrown away). It was one of the really fat tv's probably a 40 inch or so. One time I don't remember what I was trying to do, but it opened another screen ( pretty tiny though) to a different input. I remember thinking that would be a great feature to play video games with lol.
The whole split screen thing also makes me think back to the old south park episode where Chef gets a fancy TV he doesn't know how to work lol.
This channel has slowly become a video podcast of Matt and Austin of weird stuff 😅😂
I gave telly my finger and a picture of my ass for data info 🤣🤣🤣 I could never trust a company that would offer a free TV and service in exchange for your personal info.
I can see these popping up in sports bars or other similar public space maybe even waiting rooms.
We need a Kyle and Myle's debate show with Austin mediating.
I'm with Matt on this, a second screen that gives you the latest scores from the premier league could be really cool, I don't like the way this is implemented, but the tech if used correctly could be cool...but no way am I having a camera spying on me, and that's not even getting into the potential risk of hackers getting access to the content.
Yea, and maybe things like the EPG or the current prgrame info, will not hide the screen, but show on the external one. Or things like Spotify on the second screen, while you are plaing some game on the main one, but still have full controll over the music.
POV: It’s 2025 and you don’t have any personal data left.
POV it's 2025 and you see your personal data in a TH-cam ad...
@@russellclarke1997 hmm is it free for me or do I need to pay 😂💀
I got unlimited data so it's fine!
We are no longer the consumer, we became the product
"You will own nothing and you will like it". This is already true for so much of software that exists nowadays. Hardware will certainly pick up.
@@edmilsoneletrica I mean, people flocked to streaming because they were tired of ads on traditional tv, we've come full circle
It's been that way for decades now
And so what, truthfully in your daily life none of this actually effects you. You choosing to be on the internet is you volunteering to have all your data shared.
@@Bobspineable if you want a relatively unknown and not very reputable brand bring cameras and microphones in your living room be my guest
I remember this a week (?) ago when it was announced. I was like, "NOPE!" when I went to the survey part.
so much personal data is out there on any one person, especially a younger person. So at what point is your “data” worthless?
I signed up for this day one. You do not give them all your info. They literally ask about products or services you use. Restaurants and crap like that. As for the camera they have an option built in the tv to turn it off and block it. Now don't think for a minute i am some naive child. As soon as that thing starts spying on me, its going back. But, be smart with personal info, and block the camera.
Sounds to me like you're better off just putting the $500 they want to charge you towards a TV that doesn't monitor EVERYTHING you do..
"You will watch the Coke Zero ad"
- The 1984 tv guy
“Fuck all these ads, man!”
- Me, drinking Coke Zero
I love you guys y’all make my day every time y’all upload videos ❤
I specifically don't hook up my smart TV to the internet and use other devices to stream. TV's pumping ads directly over top content is coming and I want no part of it. I also don't need my TV doing shit in the background either. I only turn on the internet to check if there is a firmware update and then it goes right back off.
Why don't you just use AdGuard DNS or something?
I personally have an Android TV, which I use AdGuard DNS with and the home screen ads have literally never changed.
They are going to have to pay me millions to take their free tv
What happens if I just smash the ad screen?
Oh boy, can't wait to DRINK VERIFICATION CAN TO CONTINUE watching my Bezos Screen
Completely agree the fork factor is a good idea, and hud information or guide could go on the second screen or it could have subtitles on there without ruining the image, but the data scam shit is bollocks
If you're excited about multiple screens, you're gonna flip when you hear about this new technology called Picture in Picture
This could pave the way for tv/internet companies to provide free tvs and have the ads on the bottom screen and no ads on the main screen. Like lowering the cost of the monthly bill if you rent this tv from them.
If this company is gonna charge me $500 for the TV coming offline... I would hate to live in an area where you have power outages, or you know... any other part of the country/world with weak internet connections.
I think thats the catch of this whole scam. Nobody has a 100% power and internet availability. It will go offline eventually and then they hit you with the bill :^)
They didn't read the information properly. This is just trying to capitalize on the outrage. You won't be billed $500. They give you a free tv set, you agree to it being online, the screen uncovered etc. If you don't do as you agreed, they will ask you to return it. If you don't then they charge you. It's not a penalty for not being online, it's for not keeping your end of the contract AND not returning it
@@andreysegura2510 Yeah but willing to bet you have to cover shipping back to them, shipping a TV ain’t cheap and who knows what country you’re gonna have to ship it back to
@@gage5131 The point still remains that they're not gonna just charge you $500 because your tv was offline for a few hours
I reserved one. I plan to open the back of it and disconnecting the camera and microphone before plugging it in. Other than that I can ignore the ads
His face in the ID OMG lolololol
Dang is Matt in a hieroglyphics tshirt in that nord VPN ad read? He knows what’s up!!!
Have we come full circle in time that people don't remember that Picture in Picture is or was a thing?
It would be cool to be able to buy the bottom screen as an add on .
Just the ads and face cam 😂
With all the meta jokes in R* games... I fully expect GTA6 to have these Telly TV's in every player home, and the do things like randomly show you, your character sitting there watching tv, before suddenly changing to an ad for couch pillows.
McLovin’ 😅😅😅😅😅 that’s what I used to write in my textbooks when it asked for our name so they’d know who had it for the year. And it’s one of the many names I give to the web tv when asked
Some others are
Rusty shackleford
Negan
Assy McGee
Uncle Grandpa
Earl Hickey
Mr.Bigg
Erica Cartmanez
Gangstalicious
Thugnificant
Gaylord Focker
Emperor Kuzco
Mr.Sexy’s pizza (mainly used over the phone posing as a business)
I'm sorry but the people doing the dirty in front of the TV are in for a big treat😂😂
Guys it has ads! - He says just as an ad on youtube plays followed by a sponsor spot.
How is this not equal to predatory lenders? This seems to be targeted to those in a lower economic tier who can not afford the $500 TV from Walmart. They give up their data for a free TV so companies can target ads to them for things they can not afford but now purchase because of the marketing. This drives them further into debt causing them greater financial harm in the long run. What happens when they stop paying for internet because money is short one month and now they are charged $500 for the "free" TV that now goes on their credit report because they can not afford the $500 to start with, hence they got the free TV.
Matt is excited to see TV's with multiple screens in one, anyone remember Back to the Future 2? That's literally in that movie:) Definitely reminded me of that scene, anyway.
or simply recall the 90s when Picture-inPicture was a thing
my tv from 2015 had a camera at the top. but could be unplugged. was an early 4k smart tv from sony that i am still using
I think I'd love this just tape over the second screen
When you said no more tv things, when you mentioned revolutionary, my brain: Vision Pro.
Matt just get two tvs 😂 stop rebuilding the whee and juat get more wheel! Hahah
Speaking of...where did picture in picture go. You used to be able to watch multiple things at once. Where did that feature go??
away when it stopped being a thing in the early 2000s
My wallet: You had me at free TV!
Matt rocking the Hieroglyphics tee 🔥🔥🔥
Its kind of like the Nielsen family but even more intrusive.
It is like the TV in 'Idiocracy'!
Personally I’m fine with my data getting sold. The only issue I do have is that $500 (or since I live in the UK and if they ever decide to bring that here the equivalent in £s) fine when you disconnect from the internet. Now normally I would think there has to be some legal reasons why they cannot just charge you that $500 fine when the reason you are disconnected is either to just change Wi-Fi or is your power gets disconnected by accident so at the very least I would expect some form of time closure with how long can it be disconnected off the internet for before they would even consider you to be charged that $500 fine, but if it doesn’t have this such of closure and it literally does say you always have to be connected too the internet then yah I would consider that as a complete scam since it’s seriously unfair to get charged a fine that’s not even your own fault.
they also had 2 things in their agreement thing 1) that they are allowed to monitor your SEXUAL ACTIVITY and 2) there was a clause about kids wich they forgot the take a comment out of basically saying along the lines of "Do we really have to delete the data of kids below the age of 12?"
What the hellman mustard? That sounds pretty suspicious.
They will totally send a few TVS to popular influencer to prove it's real but us peasants will not get them. It reminds me of that Pablo Escobar Fold Phone a few years back.
I haven't even watched this video yet and I'm already part of this tv deal lol
will you guys talk about the new apple VR AR product that $3500?
I use pluto from time to time. That, Tubi and Samsung tv plus. I dont use paid streaming apps 🤷♂️
I hate this, but I what I hate even more is that I'm considering it. I have an old 720p TV that's only 32 inches and even with the relatively low prices for better TV's, I'm poor, and I do not have $200-$300 to buy a low end 4k HDR TV. Hell, I need to upgrade my graphics card and other computer components soon and that will have to go on a damn credit card and I'll have to hope I can get a decent price on Amazon so I can take advantage of my Prime card to get 0% interest for 12 months and pay it all off before then....
There are a lot of people who would like a new tv but don't have a budget to get one that are probably going to end up signing up for this. Not sure that is the demo they really want since we also can't afford to buy any of the advertised products/services that we'd be bombarded with constantly on that 2nd screen, and a lot of us probably have shitty credit on top of being poor. People who can afford to buy the products/services that the advertisers actually run to support this thing, aren't going to be the ones who sign up for it. It's going to be mostly poor people who can't afford to get a new tv otherwise.
We have 2 tv's with Roku and 1 with Firestick. All free and many, many movies on Tubi, Crackle, FreeVee, Etc....
I'm with Matt on this one. Not saying Telly is a good idea, but I think having a second screen like that would be awesome. Imagine watching your favorite show, with say the score of the NBA finals down there. You get to enjoy your show, while also keeping track of the game easily. Then, if the score is close or something and you wanna tune in, you can just change the channel and catch the exciting end or whatever
I mean some super cheap TV in some counties already have embedded ads for steaming services… so this TV isn’t that far fetched.
The camera will be covered unless you decide to use it. That's been discussed already
If Telly actually releases that TV people could just cover up the ad screen and cameras.
Tape the cameras and turn the monitor around so it faces the wall.
But they would then charge you for it
@@simonjh1973 how would they charge you..?
@@garystinten9339 cause you have to fill in loads of forms when you get the TV, so one would be payment details
@@simonjh1973 so when you get the tv.. what's to say you gave them a credit card number and just block any transactions with tellytv.. and just give away the tv to someone else.. or just don't install the 2nd screen.
Trust me if you don't want Rent-A-Center, Aarons', or any other rental places to take your stuff due to not paying or can't pay your bi-weekly or monthly payment. This is what you do establish a good relationship with the staff and the store manager. Most of my TVs and other items came from Rent-A-Center and Aarons'. This how im able to get expencive TVs and other things.
Lol, but anyway in my convergence of heavenly conformity that is of which is having the LCD numbers and or letters I have gotten to 21,000 pixels to 19,000 in the construct.
Cover up the camera and ad screen and free TV baby!
Nice information sir ji 🙏
what happens if the power or inter net go out do you get cheaged
I believe It said in tis that you’d have 5 days to connect it to WiFi Again
Guess you better connect it to your phone then
I would actually want to try this.
Would definitely cover the cameras and bottom screen though.
Then you must pay the full price of the tv
There are probably safeguards in place that either can detect that or prevent that. Or both.
CEO interviewed with Verge. Said cover it all you need. Physical switch there to cover it.
They should call this thing a 'telescreen', but George Orwell was wrong about that one. A 'telephone' that citizens were required to carry at all times would have been more accurate.
Honestly... I want a Telly. I'm gonna find a way to jailbreak it or mod it to my liking. I'm so reserving one and taking my chances.
Leave the grandmas alone.
Time to remove the Christian Blaze Blank bundle from TV's
Honestly I'd buy and want a TV like that
Why would you want Multi screen, when Picture in Picture has been a thing since the 80s?
Another great video guys! Keep it up
Forced camera on at all times? Nothing a little square of black tape wont cover up forever😂
Austin is literally not understanding what Matt is saying at all Lmao
I'm with you Matt, a TV that ISNT spyware from Telly would be sick, you could have NFL playoff info on the bottom screen while you're watching YOUR game on the big screen
This is the next level of what XBOX wanted to do with their forced Kinect and DRM when it launched. People in the boardroom of Microsoft are cheering this on and planning their next console launch around this,,,the XBOX will probably work with this to suck up your soul. Seriously, tho...this is next-level trickery to be able to have a corporation monitor you 24-7. Just insane.
This is literally how the TV sets worked in Idiocracy. Its only a matter of time before we get toilets built into our couches
Just tape over the camera and either destroy the bottom screen or install a custom rom on the tv so you can use the screen for something useful, if you did that, you wouldn't have to tape over the camera either. You should also block them from your bank.
Yeah no, because when you sign up for the TV, you are also signing a legally binding contract, and they can take you to court to get their money if you mess with the TV in anyway shape, or form.
@@CommodoreFan64 You paid $500... fuck it! Someone is bound to do it.
Cool! That will only cost you 500 dollars, plus the price of the rom. Blocking them from the bank? Please tell me you are not that naive.
Chilis is so fire. Miss having one near me lol
heck yea
Do you guys not remember "screen in screen" tvs from the 80s-90s?
Ain't no one ever paid me to once for dark blurry videos of me in my underwear or telling them about how much I love chilis....just saying.... I'm all in!
If the product is free, you are the product
So, this TV is for people so poor that it seems like a good deal.
What advertisers are interested in people who have no money? People so poor they can't afford a cheap 'proper' TV?
My question is what if your power goes out? Are they going to charge you if your power goes out?
Matt's bri'ish sounded surprisingly convincing...
Wonder how it would work with a pi hole
Austin strongly underestimates the average persons IQ...
Definitely love the idea already have a 13000$ LG and annoying ads all the time I definitely wouldn't mind getting a free TV and having the same ads, the biggest things is wither or not the ads are extra intrusive or not like they said, would be annoying to watch a movie or play a video game and get stuck with a bright screen below always on. The camera thing they said it has a physical shutter, again things could be different but it will be interesting to see how it works and if this survives
This is literally just the TV version of the original version of Netzero
Is it oled?
Though I agree this Telly thing is a complete scam, I think the form factor itself can be modified for a more desirable product, especially in terms of security, with even a built in webcam cover.
The idea of a free TV is a good idea, but to sign your data and life away is a scam 💯💯💯
and what and when they get hacked, what in the fine print will let them get off scott free/? As far as tv new feature, you got that one that could be turned vertical for a more phone oriented video . . . . . . . Curved tv, for when you want only the people on the couch to see any part of the picture . . . . Maybe multi sync detachable screen . . so you can aim parts of it at an angle . . . . Nintendo DS TV
id just build a nice white box under the tv over the little screen so i would never see it
Just break the bottom screen lol
well that will get people to click ona video for sure 😂
What would be new and innovative in the tv market would be if companies could make a quality set of speakers and put them in there. I’m tired of the tin cans in them
I actually dont have a problem with this. A few rolls of black electrical tape over the bottom of the screen. Perfect. There's literally no downside.
You still have to pay for the electricity of the fact that the screen is 24/7 on, even if you do not see it
Here's some facts, not bullshit: Cant cover bottom or block it. You can dim it all you want. Relevant to what you're watching. It does not spy on you. You can dim both backlights that second panel. You can turn the TV off. Long pressing power on the remote TURNS THE SECOND SCREEN OFF. Turns the entire tv off. The audio bar is insane. Extremely good. They included the android 4k 80 dollar Dongle FOR FREE. Software included ON THE TV ITSELF WITHOUT DONGLE - DOES HAVE STREAMING SOFTWARE NOW. YOU STILL GET THE STICK FREE AS SOFTWARE WAS UPDATED LONG BEFORE MISINFORMATION WAS ASSUMED. ALSO ALLOWS APPS BUILT IN WITHOUT THE ANDROID STICK. LIKE TH-cam OR ZOOM. MISINFORMATION EVERYWHERE. AND FOR THE LAST TIME - EVEN SPEAKING WITH VERY HIGH UP EMPLOYEES... IN THE AGREEMENTS YOU READ, YOU CAN ALSO FIND THIS INFORMATION - CONTRARY TO EVERYONE'S BELIEF IT DOES NOT SPY ON YOU.
definetly not a good idea
