Your Smart TVs have likely been seeing more usage in the last year as working and studying from home becomes the norm, but entertainment is not the only area where these devices excel.

For many, the same screen we used to watch movies, shop online or surf the net became critical to daily life, as we use it to make the most of work, school, and play.

Here, Samsung shares how you can tailor your daily work routine for home with Smart TVs so that you can stay focused and productive and stress-free throughout the day.

7:30AM: Getting Up and Getting Ready for the Day Ahead

Now that you work from home, you can reboot your morning routine, catching the news with a cup of coffee as you transition into work mode. And with the calendar notifications on your Samsung Smart TV, you can stay on top of your To-Do-List and, at the same time, keeping track of your daily tasks and important deadlines to improve work efficiency.

9:00AM: Hit the Ground Running while Working Remotely

Now that it is time to get down to business, you will need an environment that helps you entirely focus on your task. Having a second screen like Samsung Smart TV lets you view more and do more at once.

Using the Remote Access feature to wirelessly connect your Windows PCs or laptops to select Samsung Smart TVs, even if the PC is in another room. By connecting a keyboard and mouse to the TV (either wired or via Bluetooth), you can now access files, use a desktop browser, play games, and more on the TV’s spacious screen, so you won’t miss a single note or detail.

1:00PM: Reinventing the Post-lunch Leisure Break

One of the great benefits of working from home is being able to recharge in a fun way. Take 5-10 minutes throughout the day to grab a snack or video chat with colleagues. Split your TV display with Multi View to keep an eye on your work screen and stretch along to a yoga video or quick games at the same time.

Taking regular breaks helps you renew energy levels, boosting productivity and work performance.

Alternatively, use Tap View to display your phone’s screen on your TV so you can enlarge photos, show your little one a new video from the family chat, or maximize a digital magazine for easier viewing while taking lunch.

6:00PM: Leaving Work and Unwinding

Even the most media-savvy among us occasionally find ourselves needing to take a break from staring at screens to enjoy some peace and quiet instead and help you separate your professional and personal life effectively.

Sit back with the Music Wall or Relax Mode on your Smart TV and fully enjoy your leisure time at home.

Switch to Ambient Mode to foster an even more relaxing environment by displaying art, family photos and other calming content when turned off. For those times when you would like to tune out completely, you can program Ambient Mode to match the wallpaper or background of the space behind your TV, so your screen will blend seamlessly into its surroundings.

9.00PM: A Full Evening of Entertainment

Squeeze in time for a movie or that long-awaited drama series from your favourite streaming platform while seated comfortably in your jammies. Just talk to your remote control, and the voice-activated Bixby function will do everything else for you.

Meanwhile, Flicker-Free technology ensures that your eyes are not strained – important after a long day at work in front of a screen. Combined with the integration of Adaptive Picture that delivers optimal brightness even in dark lighting conditions and Adaptive Sound which uses artificial intelligence (AI) to automatically optimize sound scene-by-scene and calibrate sound to compensate for viewing distance, room echoes, and reflections, you can now enjoy the full visual and audio experience with your very own Smart TV.
