The monitor does NOT have its own TV tuner - but can be operated like a "TV" via WIFI > Internet with the usual Samsung software Netflix, Youtube and other APPS without a computer = has a remote control. As a TFT (not IPS) panel, it is not suitable as the sole standard monitor for Creators - but it is for Office etc. The unique selling point is the built-in Remote Desktop Connection, which allows a computer to be placed "anywhere", including the cloud, which is very flexible and enables a fairly tidy wireless "table". The sound is usable - but if you already have a Bluetooth speaker, you can easily connect it. It is practical, for example, to connect a laptop when needed or to use it via mobile / pad.
