The article discusses the misconception that you can't speed up an older smart TV that feels slow, or even a slow smart TV. The author points out that all TVs, even the best ones, use less capable processors than those used by phones, tablets, computers, and TVs use the least expensive (aka slowest) processors they can get away with. This confusion is due to a misunderstanding of what TVs are truly capable of and how they feel slow. The article also addresses the issue of "planned obsolescence" as software gets more complex and complex with each generation, with limited development time and resources spent on adding new features and ensuring the TV runs. However, the author concludes that all software becomes more complex with increasing processing power and complexity. Suggestions for speed improvements include deleting apps and clearing the cache, but these are not effective in making a TV work faster, as storage space takes up storage space and processing power, not actual processing power. The only way to speed up a slow TV is to use an inexpensive device, an inexpensive streaming device, Amazon Fire TV or Google's Chromecast, or a newer device that closely resembles the performance of a modern-related device.
