    Smart TVs are now capable of performing more than is expected. You can install various apps and start streaming your favorite movies and TV shows on the internet. LG Smart TV is one of the best Smart TV brands that sell TVs that run on WebOS. WebOS is uniquely designed for LG Smart TVs. It has a separate store called LG content store and you can install apps from the store. Sometimes, your screen might freeze or the TV might slow down due to any issue. If you are facing any such issues, then you can try to reset your LG Smart TV to factory settings.

    Note: The TV might slow down due to the apps installed. Try to update the apps on your LG Smart TV and check whether the issue still persists or not.
