“If I'm reading the reviews correctly, a separate Fire Stick isn't necessarily needed to make this TV functional? Also, is a digital converter box needed to bring in over the air channels? Have no cable nor satellite subscription, but do have WiFi.”

I have this exact t.v. - I quit my cable service at the first of this year & I have also gone WIFI & NO you do not need a firestick to make it work.Just plug in and follow the instructions on the screen.. It's wifi ready ! I also have a antenna for local channels & NO box is needed - Just hook up your antenna , scan for channels & your ready to go ! There is even a button on the remote for antenna channels, it also gives you a channel guide for antenna channels. GREAT TV. P.s) I like this t.v so much - I bought 2 (one for the guest room)
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I got rid of cable long ago. This TV works great with the $10 antenna I purchased on the internet that you just screw into the TV and the other end sits near or on your window. I can't believe how many channels I get this way and will never go back to cable again. This TV tells you each step to set your TV up and it scans for channels for you also so you don't have to do anything but tell it to scan.

Apps are available for most of the channels. But would still need a converter box to get over the air channels. Good luck.
