    May I stream videos from Netflix on Bravia KD-65XF9005?

    If your TV is listed as a smart TV in the technical specifications as in this case, it should have the ability to connect to the internet and run streaming apps like Netflix. However, it is always a good idea to double-check that the TV has a Netflix app or that Netflix is listed as a supported app on the manufacturer's website or in the TV's manual. To watch Netflix on your smart TV, you will also need a stable internet connection and a Netflix subscription. Once you have these, you can set up your TV to connect to the internet and access the Netflix app through the TV's home screen or menu. If you can't find the Netflix app or if it is not listed as a supported app, you may need to check with the manufacturer to see if there is a way to add it or if it is not supported on your specific model.
