The wonderful thing about Internet HDTV sets is that they are a ton of options for you to choose when purchasing your television. In the end it really comes down to what is important to you. Do you want to stream You Tube to your television? Do you want to stream Netflix to your television? Are you more interested in the quality of your HD picture than what you can stream online to your television? It is really important to understand these differences before you shell out the big bucks and buy an Internet enabled HDTV.

Panasonic VIERA HDTVs offer a variety of options. These Panasonic Internet enabled televisions can range in price from $300-$5000+. The VIERA allows you to set up an account with Amazon Video On Demand and stream movies directly to your television. You can also stream videos from You Tube to your HDTV. Picasa photo albums are easy to access as well for your picture collection. Skype also comes preinstalled and ready to use on the VIERA CAST. How cool is that?

Sony BRAVIA Internet televisions offer a robust amount of options. New televisions come equipped with Google Chrome so you can search the Internet with your television. Go to Hulu and stream shows directly to your television using Chrome. Speaking of which, Google TV also comes installed on your new Internet HDTV. Sony also has apps including an NBA app, Pandora, and Twitter but don’t come close to the amount of apps offered by Samsung.

Some Vizio Internet enabled HDTV sets come with built in wireless Internet access and Bluetooth remote and offers a slide out QWERTY keyboard. That is very appealing in my opinion. VIZIO owners can also stream Netflix directly on their Vizio television.
