What Smart is better?

The Smart platform is what allows us to connect our TV to the Internet, so we can access online content such as YouTube, A3media content, TVE, ..., pay TV platforms such as Netflix, HBO, ... share the contents of the PC, mobile, tablet and many other applications that are not really useful.

Each brand of television sets has its own platform, or adapts systems to their televisions. Most of the current televisions (2019 all) have a Smart platform. The connection is through Wi-Fi in all cases, although if we are going to watch movies over the Internet it is better to connect cable TV to the router, since the recommended connection speed to watch quality content is high.

The main brands of Smart TVs are Samsung, LG and Sony. Other brands such as Panasonic, or Hisense also have their own Smart.

Some of the aspects that we must take into account: Available applications, speed, ease of use, remote control, ...

Conclusion:

The commands by voice and the connection of electrical appliances seems to us a "pijada" that incorporate some platforms, but that are not too useful according to our personal experience. By contrast, compatibility with different online content platforms and ease / speed of operation should be the most important to assess. The Magic Control is a success, not all 2019 models include it.
In conclusion all Smart platforms are more or less for the same, Netflix, AmazonVideo and HBO will be available, so choosing a platform with access to these applications is a success, the rest are extras.
