It is always advised to cross-check the screen resolution of the smart TV before making a final purchase.

Steps To Check Smart TV Resolution If It Supports 4K Or Not?
Step 1: Often, TV packaging has all the specifications mentioned including the display size, resolution, and other details.
Step 2: If there is no mention of the display specifications in the smart TV packaging or retail box, you can try looking it in the manuals that ship along with the retail box.
Step 3: If you don’t have access to the retail box or the manuals, you can also check the display specs from the TV itself. For this, you will need to go to the Settings menu.
Step 4: Open Picture/ Display settings.
Step 5: Scroll down to screen resolution. If it’s 1080 then your TV is FHD, anything within range of 4000 pixels will be 4K UHD.
