$2400 budget

My suggestions would be to narrow your options to matte (or semi-gloss) with a fairly high brightness (nits or cd/m2 500 or above). From there you probably want a high-refresh screen (240hz rather than 120) for response time as well as the fact the latest fad seems to be backlight-scanning to get essentially a similar-looking motion appearance (or lower blur) from slower panels but at the cost of brightness (and input lag). There are those that are both, but afaik, they are all glossy (and/or incredibly expensive).
In case you can't tell, I've dabbled a little in looking for pretty much exactly what you are describing.
I am unsure which models fit that criteria, but it's a place to start whittling things down. While many (I'm sure) will mention that there are many companies that handle motion better (with bls or processing) than Sharp, which is true, when it comes down to stuff like bright rooms, gaming, etc, you have to either give or take given priorities, as essentially everything is correlated (pq vs viewing angle/lag/etc), and iirc they seem to have many options with anti-glare and 240hz panels.
Personally, (as I've mentioned before), I am waiting on the vizio p series in hopes either the 60 or 65 will not be super glossy. Combine that with what we expect to be 600 nits, and if you're willing to forgo some of the bls (which hopefully will be adjustable), that could be a really decent option for a bright room. Granted, it's 120hz and not 240hz, but at least it leaves some (theoretically) wiggle-room to decide between if you want a highly-adjusted image (for nice-looking movies or tv shows) or a decent gaming experience via zero image processing while having enough light to make it work outside of being in a cave.
