Prioritise TVs with numerous accessible and pre-installed well-known streaming apps, such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Disney+, when selecting the best TV.

It’s important to look at the interface, as each operating system offers its own set of features. Several key aspects stand out as brands strive to deliver better user experience: user interface and navigation, app ecosystem and compatibility and voice control and smart integration.
