Best Smart TV for app system from LG, Samsung, Sony, Hisense

One of the biggest concerns at the time ofpurchase of a new Smart TV it is not the technology used for the screen or the resolution, but the operating system it has.
In fact, all Smart TVs include an operating system similar to that of a PC or smartphone, which acts as a basis for installing applications, offers the possibility of connecting to the internet to view and view video content from websites, as if we were on your computer or on our tablet.
The problem with Smart TVs lies right here: we have to choose a TV with a well-supported operating system and frequent app updates, so that we can keep up with the times and with new multimedia features.
In this guide we will show you what they are the best operating systems for Smart TVs for each manufacturer, so you can only choose the supported systems and on which we can find the official apps of YouTube, Netflix and others. If we want to know the other features to check before buying a smart TV, we recommend that you read our guide on What does Smart TV mean, what are the advantages and disadvantages.

Conclusions

If we have to choose a new Smart TV, let's make sure that it has one of the operating systems reported in this guide, so as to be absolutely sure of always finding the app we want, without having to use external devices such as TV Box or dongle. They are also present on the market Smart TV with "smooth" Android, but it will rarely be as smooth and snappy as one of the TVs certified to run Android TV, the version optimized directly from Google. We avoid any unknown operating system, as we will hardly find the apps we need on it.
If we don't want to buy a new Smart TV, we can always turn a simple TV into a Smart TV using a Chromecast or an Amazon Fire TV Stick, as detailed in the Chromecast guide with 16 tricks and applications to use it to the fullest and in Amazon Fire TV Stick guide with hidden tricks, apps and features.
If we have an iPhone or an iPad, we can integrate AirPlay on any TV by equipping ourselves with an Apple TV, as seen in our article When the Apple TV 4K is worth it: strengths and weaknesses.
