Can I watch Netflix on 42LB5800
dexter.nicolas
over 1 year ago
Yes, this television set is a smart TV. A smart TV is a special kind of television that can connect to the internet and run apps that allow you to watch movies and TV shows online. This means that you don't need to use a separate device, like a computer or a phone, to watch shows from websites like Netflix or Hulu. To use these apps, you'll need to have an internet connection and a subscription to the service. You'll also need to set up your TV to connect to the internet. Once you've done this, you can use the TV's menu or home screen to access the streaming apps and start watching your favorite shows and movies.
