No. It has Chromecast built in. The difference between the built in Chromecast and a true smart TV, is that you will have to purchase a dongle (such as Chromecast ultra or 2nd gen fire TV stick) in order to view 4k content. The built in Chromecast is equivalent to the $35 chromecast sold at the Google store. It will allow you to view content in 1080p aka HD resolution. To view 4k content you will need to use one of the HDMI inputs and attach a 4k capable streaming device. In a smart TV the built in apps would allow you to view 4k content, without the need for a streaming device. You will also need a phone or tablet to cast content from the internet to the tv for viewing. That may not be a drawback for some people; but the first point mentioned is an issue as it will be an added expense to purchase a 4k capable streaming device.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, this is not a smart tv. It does not have built in apps and you cannot browse the web as a built in function. It does have chrome cast built in. This allows you to cast from your phone or chrome browser or google home device to the tv. I have done these. I think you can even cast/share your chrome browser window to the tv (so might be able to cast the active tab and "web browse" on your tv that way) but I have not tried that, only YouTube, Netflix, etc.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The above answer is incorrect. The Chromecast built in to the TV does cast in 4k.
