Cutting the cord refers to not paying for cable TV, but you'll need internet to get the streaming that TVs can give you. For instance, this TV has HBO Max and Amazon Prime as apps, and in order to use them, you'll need to pay for internet at your house. Try Googling "How to cut the cord" and you'll find some good articles. What I would do is write down the channels you really want to have (local news, sports, movie channels, etc). Then see if the TV has the apps you want to subscribe to and use. Network news can be received through an antenna too you plug into the TV. If you're finding that you can't live without some cable channels, call XFinity and see if you can't remove some channels and save some money. You can also log into XFinity.com and compare plans.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.We live in the Western Foothills of North Carolina. We have been in our home almost 30 years. Our basic access to TV signal has ALWAYS Antenna. Cable has and most likely will never been available. Over the years we have tried different satellites but NEVER with reliable signal which though the number of channels is more limited with antenna the signal quality, sound, and picture are EXCELLENT even though we are approximately 60 miles from the different stations, CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox, Ion, etc. antennas. We have 4 televisions in our home. Three of the four are “Smart” TV’s. Doing Wi-Fi for us is actually through our cell phone provider. Our picture quality, etc. is MORE than adequate. Long live the Antenna!
