TVs have been around for a long time. To begin with, we had grainy black and white images on screens so small that the family would have to sit around the TV to see. Later on, color television became available, and the quality of the picture and sound kept on improving.

Nowadays, TVs have large screens that show very high-quality pictures. Such is the quality of the pictures that it is getting harder to improve on them, but that doesn’t mean the technology stopped advancing. One of the latest developments is smart TVs, and here’s a look at just what a smart TV is.

1. Internet Connectivity

It is hard to imagine life without the internet nowadays, but it isn’t that long ago that it first came on the scene. Since it was introduced, it has become increasingly faster, allowing us to download increasingly large files. Not only that, but we now want access to the internet via mobile devices, whereas in the past we would have had to use a modem. There are numerous online TV streaming services available.

Without a smart TV, you would need to use a PC or Laptop to access them. With a smart TV, however, you have easy and instant access. In addition to using your smart TV to watch a movie on Netflix, for example, you can even use it to check your emails.
