Does smart TV need a box? Short term: NO! Long term: YES!

Before answering this question, we must first understand two points:

Smart TV, in fact, said that white is a combination of Internet TV and ordinary LCD TV, it can also be seen as a combination of network set-top boxes and ordinary LCD TVs, simply that is smart Internet TV.

Set-top boxes are divided into: network set-top boxes, cable set-top boxes (broadcast cable TV boxes)

In general, smart TVs have all the functions of a TV box, and the general configuration of new start-ups is not low. Both of them use Android, and no need to configure an Internet set-top box.

Therefore, it is not necessary to configure network set-top boxes in the short term.

However, in the following four situations, consider configuring a TV box:

1. If you do not want to watch live broadcasts of TV stations through the use of third-party TV live applications, you may apply for the installation of cable network set-top boxes if you want to use radio and television cable.

However, this is not necessary. If elderly people use more televisions at home, they can apply for a cable set-top box for the convenience of the elderly. After all, the operation of live broadcast software is still unacceptable for some elderly people and it is more troublesome. Habits must be turned into TV broadcasts by cable TV.

2. Smart TVs and Internet STBs rely on hardware support. Nowadays, with the rapid development of science and technology, 4K smart TVs have not yet been fully popularized. There are 8K smart TVs, holographic TVs, and so on. New technology TVs emerge in an endless stream, but one thing that remains unchanged is television. The price of the machine is not cheap, even the worst brands are several hundred. After years of using smart TVs, the hardware is aging, which cannot support the application of new technologies. It will definitely affect the user's experience. In the end, only new players can be replaced. It is also the reason why some brands have introduced separate machines/buyers for hardware. However, the cost of TV hardware is unlikely to be cheap.

The network set-top box is only a hundred cheaper, but also a little better, but hundreds, when the smart TV aging, may wish to buy an Internet set-top box to meet the demand to make up for the shortcomings of smart TV hardware aging.

Some people may say that the screen cannot keep up. Actually, the current 4K resolution TV is already high in the resolution that humans can accept. 8K is already the highest point of acceptance, and 8K or more is not realistic. Human eyes cannot Identify and adapt. Therefore, there are few cases where the screen is out of date or not enough, and the screen quality of the television is still good. Using a 10-year estimate is not a problem.

3. Nowadays, most domestic smart TVs are Android systems. Most of the third-party applications are also Android systems. They are generally adaptable and have good compatibility. However, many of them prefer foreign brands, or directly. High-quality televisions bought from abroad, but because of the "unsatisfied" situation, it is very likely that they will not be able to use third-party applications, or they will have poor compatibility and unstable use. And so expensive televisions will not be able to meet their own needs. This time to take a domestic network set-top box to use, but also to balance this gap, be a good and affordable choice.

4. Most smart TVs currently use the Android system, which has a strong openness, but it will inevitably appear such as black screen, crash, Caton and other situations, if you use the network set-top box to bear this risk, it can be regarded as more than one TV Insurance is also considered cost-effective; network set-top boxes are broken, and they are dismantled and disposed of by themselves. Even if they fix problems, the risk of loss will be lower. After smart TVs are demolished, businesses will no longer take risks.

If you meet the above conditions, you may wish to purchase an additional network set-top box to make up for the inconvenience caused by the smart TV. Compared to replacing the TV, replacing the network set-top box is much cheaper.
