Review: The television keeps getting smarter and prettier

There are tons of different Smart TVs out there, some better than others. For most people, buying a Smart TV is a significant investment. That is why it’s important to take the time to find out what features to look for in a Smart TV. You’ll avoid unnecessary annoyances and extra costs, and you’ll get the most out of your new gadget.

Full Web Browsing
You don’t want to constantly have to pull out your laptop to navigate your viewing experience. Make sure your Smart TV comes with full web browsing. That way, all you’ll need is the remote to navigate. You can even use voice controls on some Smart TVs.

An integrated keyboard
You don’t have to buy a wireless keyword to use with your Smart TV. Many Smart TVs have advanced remotes that include full built-in keyboards. This feature will make web browsing more convenient and save you time and money.

An Ethernet Port
Not all Smart TVs come with an Ethernet port. Because Wi-Fi signals fluctuate, they are not the best for streaming high-definition movies, television, and gaming. The best option for reliable streaming is a direct connection via Ethernet port. Buying an Ethernet adapter for a Smart TV without an Ethernet port will cost you extra money. If you’re going to invest in a Smart TV, then go for one that already comes with the connections you need.

A Smart App User Interface
Find out how many preloaded apps already come with a Smart TV. Research how many apps are available in the company’s app store. You’ll want to avoid Smart TVs that come with very few apps or that have a limited number of available apps.

At the retail store, you should test out how easy it is navigate in the app store. If you’re buying online, rely on reviews that speak about the app user interface. Too many negative reviews about not enough apps or difficulty in navigating menus are bad signs. To avoid disappointments and headaches, go for a Smart TV from brands like Samsung or LG Home Electronics that have a simple and easy to use app user interface.

Superb Picture Quality
If you’re going to spend money on a Smart TV, make sure you are getting the best picture quality. Smart TVs now come with 4K technology. If this is in your price range, go for the best viewing experience.

Active 3D Technology
If you plan to do 3D gaming or watch 3D movies, you should know there are different 3D technologies out there for Smart TVs: active 3D technology and passive 3D technology. Choosing a Smart TV with active 3D technology will deliver the best picture resolution. However, the viewing equipment for active 3D technology is more expensive than passive 3D technology.

These are just some of the best features to look for in a Smart TV. Make sure you do your research to see which Smart TV is best for your viewing needs and price range.
