Nah, the speakers that can physically fit in a TV of any type aren’t that big, aren’t put in enclosures tuned to the speaker, don’t have multiple speakers with a crossover to handle different frequency ranges, and don’t have quality amplifier components. They were always built cheap to what could fit in the box. I’m not talking audiphile shit here, but just the basics of a good sound system.
Sure, my 2008 flat screen, I think it’s a Samsung, sounds decent enough too but it’s also 4" thick. The newer ones that are 2" or less simply don’t have enough depth in the body for decent speakers.
I would prefer a thicker TV with better sound than having to buy a sound bar or theatre system to go with it. My 2014 Samsung with shit sound is about 4” thick. That’s not the reason.
After 32” you’re going to want to have a friend help you move it anyway, so who cares how thick it is? It’s all a scam to get you to buy more stuff.
TVs used to have decent sound on their own, but the enshittification got to them.

Well, I had a 48” flat screen in 2006 that didn’t need separate speakers. Every TV since sounds like absolute garbage.
