A:Answer Yes, you can use the tv without connecting the internet. This will only affect the "smart" features. No using apps in the tv, but if your goal is just to play your PS5 Do it! I love this TV, looks great! I recommend at the very least use the internet to see if there are any updates when you first set it up, to get the most out of your tv then simply unplug it from the internet. I hope you enjoy your new set up as much as I am.
