In short, a smart TV is an internet-enabled TV which connects to your favourite streaming platforms for endless enjoyment of your favourite content. If your TV has internet connectivity, runs on an operating system, and comes with its own app service, it's smart!
In smart TVs, the operating system is preloaded into the television set's firmware, which provides access to apps and other digital content. In contrast, traditional televisions primarily act as displays and are limited to vendor-specific customization. The software applications can be preloaded into the device or updated or installed on demand via an application store or marketplace, in a manner similar to how applications are integrated into modern smartphones.
Smart TVs deliver content (such as photos, movies and music) from other computers or network attached storage devices on a network using either a Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) / Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) media server or similar service program like Windows Media Player or Network-attached storage (NAS), or via iTunes. It also provides access to Internet-based services including traditional broadcast TV channels, catch-up services, video on demand (VOD), electronic program guide, interactive advertising, personalization, voting, games, social networking, and other multimedia applications. Smart TV enables access to movies, shows, video games, apps and more. Some of those apps include Netflix, Plex, Spotify, YouTube, and Amazon.
A smart TV platform has a public software development kit which third-party developers can develop applications, and an app store so end-users can install and uninstall apps. The public SDK enables third-party application developers to write applications and see them run successfully on any device that supports the smart TV platform architecture it was written for, regardless of the hardware manufacturer.
The technology that enables smart TVs is also incorporated into external devices such as set-top boxes and some Blu-ray players, game consoles, digital media players, hotel television systems, smartphones, and other network-connected interactive devices that utilize television-type display outputs. These devices allow viewers to find and play videos, movies, TV shows, photos, and other content from the Web, cable or satellite TV channels, or a local storage device.
When you have a distance of 3 meters from your TV, there is no limit to the size of your TV. Please keep in mind a TV's size refers to its diagonal length, measured from the upper left-hand corner of the actual TV screen to the lower right-hand corner.
This may differ from room to room, but the ideal height is to have the middle of the TV screen at eye level or slightly below. This is because lifting your eyes is very tiring and can cause strain when settling in for a movie marathon or bingeing your favourite series.
Most experts recommend the centre of the TV to be around one metre from the floor, however, this may differ depending on how tall you are and the height of your sofa or chair.
Of course, there are some exceptions, if you tend to watch television while sitting on a recliner or while lying in bed, the TV should be mounted higher. This could be as high as 1.8m. But in this case, it is best to have an adjustable mount that you can easily alter the angle depending on your position.
LED (Light Emitting Diode)
The lens is made of liquid crystals. Behind the panels, there are LED lights, making it thinner. There is a small time delay in the movement of the picture due to LEDs technology making it difficult to produce consistent natural and realistic uniform colour and tones. The average lifespan of an LED TV remains between 50.000 to 100.000 hours of use, which equates to roughly 5 to 10 years, depending on usage and care. High-quality brands and models can last longer, while factors like high brightness settings, heat, and extended use may shorten this expected lifetime.
QNED (Quantum Nano-Emitting Diodes)
Nanoparticles help the QNED TV panel filter duller tones that affect the image’s brightness combining the red, blue, green and yellow colours, creating another level of vibrancy providing picture quality with higher contrasts, deeper blacks and more realistic colors. QNED TV’s response time is slower than an OLED screen. QNED’s pixels are grouped together in zones using Mini-LEDs. Poorer viewing angle than OLED. QNED is a new technology and we're still to get accurate data about its longevity. The lifespan of a QNED panel is limited, according to online sources. But this doesn't just apply to QNED, but any type of LED including the backlight of LED-LCD TVs. In the last few years, the lifespan of QNED has tripled and is estimated to now have 100.000 of viewing.
OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode)
Self lighting dots in the form of tiny lenses. Unlike LCD TVs, OLED screens maintain picture quality even when viewed from an angle. Colors remain vibrant, and contrast remains flawless regardless of your viewing position. Enjoy Premium Picture Quality with Brighter Colors & Perfect Blacks. OLED screens offer incredibly fast response times, making them perfect for gamers and watching sports events.
The lifespan of an OLED panel is limited, according to online sources. But this doesn't just apply to OLED, but any type of LED including the backlight of LED-LCD TVs. During the last 10 years, the lifespan of OLED has tripled and is able to provide up to 100.000 hours viewing.

The electromagnetic energy generated by an induction coil reacts only with magnetic materials, not with ceramic surfaces. The magnetic base of the pot absorbs the electromagnetic energy and converts it into heat energy thus making the base of the pan the source of the heat, guaranteeing safety and energy savings. Therefore, it cooks incredibly fast and saves vast amounts of energy. It can boil 1 liter of water in just 2 minutes, as opposed to the ceramic hobs that take up to 10 minutes and the gas hobs that take up to 8 minutes.
For an induction hob to function, you can only use pots and pans with a magnetic base. To easily check their suitability, place a fridge magnet on the base of the pan. If the fridge magnet sticks to the pan, you can use them. In addition, the induction hobs require strong ventilation. For this reason, if the built-in oven is placed under the induction hob, ventilation should be created between the oven and hob.
