Smart TVs offer a range of functionalities beyond basic viewing. According to Engadget, some phones can act as remote controls for smart TVs using IR blasters, while others can connect via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to control the TV. Additionally, Engadget notes that smart TVs remain active even when powered down, performing various background tasks without user awareness. These features highlight the evolving capabilities of modern television technology.
