You can now stream content from Google Play Movies & TV on Samsung Smart TVs

Last updated: December 9th, 2016 at 08:51 UTC+01:00

Good news for folk with a 2016 model of Samsung's Smart TV: You can now stream movies and TV shows stored in your Google Play Movies & TV library directly to your TV, in addition to having the facility to use your remote to browse the service's selection of content to start watching something new right away.

Unfortunately, you won't be able to stream movies or shows in 4K just yet as that privilege is reserved for Chromecast Ultra and Sony Bravia Android TV owners residing in Canada and the United States. Although, it's believed to make its way to additional devices next year.
