A non-smart ATV typically refers to a traditional television that doesn’t have built-in internet connectivity, smart features, or the ability to run apps. Its characteristics include:

• Limited Connectivity: Non-smart ATVs lack Wi-Fi or Ethernet connectivity, so they can’t access online content directly.

• No Apps or Streaming: These TVs can’t run apps like Netflix, YouTube, or streaming services, and they don’t have a built-in web browser.

• Basic Functionality: Non-smart ATVs focus on providing essential functions such as displaying TV channels through cable, satellite, or an external antenna.

• External Devices Required: To access online content, you would need to connect external devices like streaming boxes, gaming consoles, or a media player.

• Simplicity: They are often more straightforward and offer a basic viewing experience, which can be an advantage if you prefer simplicity and don’t need smart features.
Non-smart ATVs are generally less expensive than smart TVs, making them a good choice for those who primarily watch traditional broadcast TV and don’t require internet connectivity or app support.
