Understanding Smart TV Technology

When you are in the market for a new TV, your only requirement may simply be that it has a good TV remote control. That’s a normal request from the average person. However, today’s TVs have a lot more to offer than just a great remote. There are different technologies being introduced every day — and one of those technologies is the Smart TV.

So, what is a Smart TV? In simple terms, it is a TV that can connect to the internet. Now, a Smart TV is not the kind of television that requires an HDMI cable to connect it to your laptop. A Smart TV has its own way of connecting to the internet. Some of these televisions have built-in WIFI functionality. Others require that you connect your TV directly to your router through an Ethernet port.

Once connected to the internet, you will find a wide range of options available. You can surf the web, check Facebook, watch some YouTube clips, and much more. Different manufacturers offer different features for their Smart TVs, and some are better than others. One thing that you are sure to find is the ability to stream videos, such as those offered by Netflix and other video-on-demand services.

Smart TV prices range from low to high. If internet access or streaming movies is important to you, then you may want to find a Smart TV to fit your needs — and if its great remote ever fails, Replacement Remotes is here to help.
