A:Answer 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.
