Useful Smart TVs
Smart TVs are an interesting CHIP decision. Sometimes, there’s no reason for a TV to actually be smart: app offerings and streaming capabilities are already done on other devices, like Apple TVs, receivers, or game consoles (which you likely already own). But with CHIP certification, new options open up that could make smart TVs worthwhile. Imagine being able to bring up a live feed of your porch right on your TV when a person approaches your video doorbell—or automatically syncing your Bluetooth speakers whenever you turn on the TV, so you get room-filling audio without any extra steps!
