    May I stream videos from Netflix on UE50MU6172?
    leota
    over 1 year ago
    Yes. A smart TV is a television set that is equipped with internet capabilities and the ability to access and run various streaming apps and services, allowing you to watch online content from platforms like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video without the need for external devices. To use these services, you'll need to have a subscription and 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 through the TV's menu or home screen and begin watching your favorite shows and movies.
