What's on your TV?

Pick what looks like your place. We'll walk you to the QR code.

Let's figure it out

Turn on the TV and press the Home button on the remote. Which of these looks like what you see?

Where's the brand?

Usually written under the screen. Otherwise, on the sticker at the back of the TV, with the model number.

What brand?

It's usually written under the screen.

Samsung

What year is your TV?

How do I find my TV's year?

The model number is on the sticker at the back of the TV, or in the menu:

SettingsSupportAbout This TV

One letter in it gives the year: K = 2016, M = 2017, N = 2018, R = 2019, T = 2020, A = 2021, B = 2022, C = 2023, D = 2024, F = 2025, H = 2026.

It's the letter after the size (UN55NU7100: 2018), or the last one of the series (QN65Q80T: 2020).

Some 2024 TVs got Tizen 9 through an update.

LG

What year is your TV?

What counts is the webOS version: it's under each year.

How do I find my TV's version?

Press the Mute button on the remote three times in a row: the TV shows its model and its webOS version.

A TV may have got a newer version than its year: a 2022 OLED may run webOS 24. Pick by the version.

The model is also on the sticker at the back: UP or OLED…C1 = 2021, UQ or C2 = 2022, UR or C3 = 2023.

Hisense

Which menu does your TV have?

Hisense makes TVs with four different menus.

How do I tell the menu and the version?

Look at the end of the model, on the sticker at the back. On recent models: V = VIDAA, G = Google TV, F = Fire TV.

On a VIDAA TV, the version is in the menu:

SettingsSupportAbout

Sony

These TVs run someone else's menu. Pick the one that looks like your home screen.

Chromecast or Google TV
