    Can I watch Netflix on OLED55B7V
    rico
    over 1 year ago
    For your TV to be a smart TV, it should be able to connect to an internet connection and run apps like Netflix. To watch Netflix on your TV, you'll need a good internet connection, a subscription to Netflix, and for your TV to be set up so that it can access the internet and find the Netflix app. If you can't find the Netflix app or if it's not listed as a supported app, you may need to check with the company that made your TV to see if it can be added or if it's not supported on your specific model. Once you have everything set up, you'll be able to watch your favorite shows and movies on your TV just like you would on a smart TV."

LG OLED55B7V review and best prices (OLED B7) | S21

The LG OLED55B7V is an outstanding buy. OLED display technology gives you the best possible picture quality, and the B7 is the most affordable OLED TV in LG's 2017 range. It's super-stylish too too, with its blade-thin screen. It has superior audio and excellent Smart TV. The only issue is the price, but we expect this to fall.

B7 is LG's most affordable OLED but it still offers 4K, HDR, webOS, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. That sounds like a recipe for success. So, is it? Read our review
