Does this tablet let you watch online tv? Can you install and watch tv apps such as NBC, CBS...et?

Yes, I have Time Warner Cable, there is an app for it. Watch anything you normally would on tv. I only have 1 box so I can watch in my bedroom which doesn't get all channels. Also most networks have an app to download free in the play store. I hope this helps. I am really happy with my tablet.

Was not happy with screen resolution on this tablet. Don't think it will work well with TV apps. It seems to be hard wired into Chinese browser which can not be changed. This make life very difficult.

No Web browser, but it does provide apps you can download, provided by Yahoo, so if you have a Netflix or hulu account you can access thru your tv

It does have an app for NETFLIX,-- however it stalled allot or crashed sometimes . It never really worked correctly for me. Its not really a high powered tablet. I right articles and use my email allot. This tablet is great for someone who has never owned a tablet , because after owning this one --- you will know exactly what you want and need from a tablet. I would purchase it again if need be.

I went to 1mobile.com and download their apk...I now have Kindle, Netflix, HBO Go and Flixster on this tablet...all play well. Also, I watch Youtube often. I love my tablet.

This tv has a variety of apps. You cannot browse the internet the way you can on a computer or smartphone, but there is a YouTube app, as well as many others. I believe you can browse the Vizio App Store (the apps are free) on their website.

I have not seen an app on the tv that just lets you input a website. It would be nice if they added one. That said,i have not used all of the apps provided, there may be a way to do it

There is a browser in the tv so I assume you could load the page and try but you would still need a keyboard and mouse to make it work. Plus I'm not sure if the browser can do flash...or whatever the game "web language" is. They also have apps specifically for the TV. Google lg world and you can see what apps are up on the lg server for download to play on the tv. Haven't done that either. TV is pretty damn incredible though.

I had this tablet, and could watch some channels, but I forget which. Some channels recognise this is a tablet, and will refuse to load, others, at this point, will work. However, as I understand it, some networks are in the process of cutting off access to their feeds from android based devices. I had netflix loaded, and it worked great, and a few over the air channels also worked great. CBS, NBC, ABC, etc. Of those , I know a few worked, but a few didn't. Doing a little research, it appears Netflix & Hulu Plus are preloaded, and ready to go. Both have free trials so try them out, and decide which you prefer. I prefer Netflix as I think it offers more bang for my $8 mo. However, Hulu basic is free when using a computer or laptop.

I have the Amazon App store installed. You can install it by going to this link on the tablet and install:

Yes, you do have to purchase the app for your tablet and phone in order to watch your home tv on them. It's worth it though. The Sling Box is great! I watch sports, tv shows, dvr recordings, etc when I'm at the gym and out of town. I know it's an expensive app, but the app and sling box are great.

I'm Sorry, I haven't used it for anything other than "Word" docs and light web surfing. Wish I could have been more help. I guess my main concern would be, what video software would work on an "Android" tablet? Have you tried looking at "youtube" for anyone using the tablet for just that? Wish you well.

I own this tv and no, you cannot surf the web, not like a computer or tablet. There is a yahoo app but it is sooooo slow it would drive you crazy to use it for any real surfing. I use it for tv viewing, Pandora, amazon prime video. It also accesses Netflix well but I dropped that. very slow starting up.

I may be joining you in that boat shortly. I have a shortlist working on backup tablets if this doesn't look like it's going to happen soon. Gtablet is pretty close to the top (with tnt lite of course.) Problem is for me, I WANT a 7 in tablet. I'm also seriously considering the nook color now that it's been rooted. Going to have to keep an eye on development on that in the next few days...might pocket the spare money and sell it to upgrade to a tegra when they finally start showing up. I'm just really disappointed in stream tv's complete lack of any news or updates regarding their product.

Please, someone that has actually done this should be the one to answer. The reason I say that is because I just recently (within a week ago from right now) discovered, along with other people, that it is still not possible to watch Amazon Instant Video material on an Android Tablet unless it's one of Amazon's tablets. If anyone has direct, personal experience to the contrary with this exact tablet model, please post up.

I never tried youtube. Netflix worked for the short time that the tablet worked. you need to download an app. for whatever you want to run

It is for download all the same Apps of Android OS....I don´t know if you can watch arabic channels through your internet connection. With this device you can use your standard TV like a Smart TV.
