3) Playstation Now
With the PlayStation Now app, you can play your favorite PlayStation games whenever you want to. You won’t actually be downloading the game to your Smart TV since the processor can’t handle it. The game is streamed from Sony’s servers, so all you have to worry about is playing the game.
The response time might be a little different from playing it on a console. But, if you have a good Internet connection or a wired Ethernet connection you’ll be okay.
4) YouTube
If you’re looking for fame but from the comfort of your own home then you need the YouTube app. You’ll get the exact same YouTube you’ve been using on your computer but on your Samsung Smart TV. Enjoy the videos you’ve always enjoyed, but with the biggest ¨monitor¨, you can get your hands on, your TV!
