Smart TVs

Streamline Your Screen Time with a Smart TV!

What is a smart TV?

To put it simply, it’s a TV with more brainpower than your average telly! By connecting to the internet via Wi-Fi or Ethernet, a smart TV gives you instant access to built-in apps that are powered by platforms such as Google TV, Android TV, or webOS (depending on the model).

Whether you’re streaming the latest releases on Netflix, listening to your favourite playlist on Spotify, or catching up on YouTube on the big screen, you’ll have a front row seat to a world of entertainment – all without leaving the comfort of your couch!

What can a smart TV do?

With more brains behind the screen, a smart TV can handle more than you think:

• Stream entertainment apps like Stan, Apple TV, Prime, and YouTube.
• Catch up on free-to-air TV with on-demand apps.
• Cast or mirror from your phone or laptop to share videos, photos, and more.
• Control the TV your way – via the remote, your voice, or phone app.
• Connect Bluetooth devices like headphones or speakers (on compatible models).
• Pair with smart home devices to check cameras or dim the lights for movie night.
• Use energy-saving modes to help manage power consumption.

What is the best smart TV?

The best smart TV is one that suits your setup – whether you’re looking for silky-smooth refresh rates for footy finals, razor-sharp resolution for gaming, or a cinematic showstopper for your next movie marathon.

What size smart TV should I buy?

To choose a smart TV size, consider the space it’s going in, how far you’ll be from the screen, and your usual viewing lineup. The right fit keeps text and detail crystal-clear, saves your eyes from strain, and makes blockbuster moments – like movies, live sports, and gaming – feel all the more immersive.

Here’s a quick guide to help you size things up:

• 24 to 32-Inch Smart TVs – Perfect for bedrooms or smaller spaces where smart features still shine.
• 40 to 50-Inch Smart TVs – A solid choice for mid-sized rooms with casual, everyday viewing on the agenda.
• 55 to 60-Inch Smart TVs – The all-rounder for most living areas, balancing size, smarts, and screen appeal.
• 65 to 70-Inch Smart TVs – Made for larger lounges and open-plan living with the TV taking centre stage.
• 75 to 83-Inch Smart TVs – A truly immersive screen that dials up the drama for sport and movie nights.
• 85-Inch & Over Smart TVs – Lights down, volume up – this is the ultimate home cinema experience.

Do you need an aerial for a smart TV?

It depends on what you like to watch! If live footy, the 6 o’clock news, or free-to-air programs are part of your regular lineup, you’ll need an aerial to pick up the broadcast signals that those channels rely on.

But if most of your screen time includes Netflix marathons, catching up on shows via apps, or streaming YouTube from the couch, all you need to do is connect your smart television to the internet – no antenna required.
