How to watch the super bowl on samsung smart tv

The biggest sporting holiday of the year is upon us with Super Bowl LVI fast approaching.

The Super Bowl will be streamed in 4K ultra-high definition, and there are several ways to watch Matthew Stafford battle Joe Burrow.

How to Watch Super Bowl LVI on TV

Super Bowl LV expects full attendance, and typical capacity for SoFi Stadium is more than 70,000. Still, if COVID-19 has you wary of big crowds, you can tune in on the big screen at home, or streaming from one of your many devices. If you have cable in the US, you will want to tune into NBC for the 6:30 p.m. ET kickoff time. There's still time to get yourself a television that can take advantage of the high-quality stream, though you don't need an 8K TV just yet. And remember to turn on your TV's motion-smoothing option.

How to Watch Super Bowl LVI With a VPN

If you're in an area where it's difficult to get a workable stream through conventional means, you can always use a VPN. There are many great VPN services out there that we would recommend, but for this occasion you're probably looking for something free and easy to set up.

Note, however, that not all VPN services are created equal. A good VPN secures your data and preserves your online privacy, but there are many out there that don't work as advertised. When shopping for a good VPN to stream a live sporting event, focus on two attributes: data limit and speed. We recommend our Editors' Choice pick ProtonVPN because it's free and has no data limit. Another good option is NordVPN, which is one of the fastest VPNs. If you need a VPN that works well with the BBC iPlayer, look no further than CyberGhost VPN.
