Is it Worth Buying a Smart TV? Or Should You Stick With Your 'Dumb' HDTV?

Considering updating your HDTV to a Smart TV, but don't really know much about the latter.

Firstly, you need to know what a Smart TV is before you can decide whether to get one or stick with the HDTV model you have.

A Smart TV is made smarter than the others by having an OS (Operating System) which allows it to be connected to the Internet.

It works very much like a normal HDTV but with added functionality - the ability to use apps much like your smartphone.

Well, you can still enjoy the app facility through an external device like a TV box, but then a Smart TV saves you the trouble of having an extra remote for the device.

Also, you don't have to look for an extra HDMI port in your TV.

That's a convenience. But will that be enough to convince you to buy a Smart TV?

Note that there are also downsides to Smart TVs.
