What can the internet browser of a LG TV do?
If you've bought a new LG TV, it's probably a so-called Smart TV that also has an Internet browser. We'll tell you what it can do.
How does the internet browser of a LG Smart TV work?
The internet browser of a LG TV looks like a normal browser that you also know from a PC. The design is comparable to Google Chrome or Firefox.
- As with the browser on your PC, you will find a URL line at the top, a forward and back button and a button with an asterisk that you can use to save the current page as a favorite.
- Unlike on the computer, the zoom and search functions are already integrated in the menu bar.
- An interesting feature is the picture-in-picture function: You can activate TV mode at the bottom right using a button in the menu bar. This allows you to continue watching the TV program while surfing the Internet.
- The browser supports both Flash and HTML5. This means that virtually all content can be displayed on the Internet. Videos on Youtube are therefore no problem.
- Conclusion: The browser of a LG TV does not load the pages as quickly as that of a computer. However, it has all the usual functions and a few other useful features.
Depending on the LG TV and browser version, the browser can be constructed differently and not have all functions. Tip: You can read how to find the best 3D TVs in this practical tip.
