    May I stream videos from Netflix on NS-55E480?
    eliseo

    It's not a smart TV. But... If your TV is not a smart TV, you can still watch Netflix on it by using a separate device that connects to your TV and allows you to stream online content. Some options for doing this include streaming sticks, set-top boxes, and Blu-ray players with built-in streaming capabilities. To use these devices, you will need to have a stable internet connection and a subscription to the streaming service you want to use, as well as set up the device to connect to your TV. Once you have done this, you can start streaming content from Netflix and other platforms on your non-smart TV.
