    Can I watch Netflix on QN55Q8C
    josiah
    over 1 year ago
    If your television is compatible with Netflix, you can watch your favorite shows and movies on it just like you would on a smart TV. To do so, your television will need to have an internet connection and the Netflix app installed. Once this is done, you'll be able to watch Netflix content just as you would on a smart TV.
