    Can I watch Netflix on UE43M5500
    waylon_skiles
    over 1 year ago
    If your TV can connect to the Internet, you can watch Netflix on it. To watch Netflix on your TV, you'll need a good internet connection and a subscription to Netflix. You'll also need to set up your TV to connect to 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, check with the company that made your TV to see if it can be added. 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.
