    Can I watch Netflix on 49UB8500
    morris_schneider
    over 1 year ago
    Oc course! A smart TV is a type of television that has built-in internet connectivity and the ability to access and run various streaming apps and services. This means that you can use your TV to watch online content from platforms like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, and many others, without the need for an external device such as a set-top box or streaming stick. To use these apps, you'll need to have a subscription to the service, a stable internet connection, and set up your TV to connect to your home network. Once you've done this, you can access the streaming apps and services through the TV's menu or home screen, and start watching your favorite shows and movies.
