I did some searching was a little surprised by not finding a TV with vocal remote control. I want to say the channel number or program name or channel name but found no tv or set of devices that did something so simple. Oh and volume up and down. In this day and #$$^&%^& I would have thought.
Dish has a new remote with voice commands
Dish has voice control remotes.
Works great.
Also, ALEXA devices can be connected as well.
I have one and can change channels from anywhere in the room without touching a button.

Google Home. Alexa. Samsung smart TVs. Roku.
They are all capable of voice control for TV viewing.
Do these understand “mute” “shut up”?
Yeah, they’re around. But be advised, if you say “#$$^&%^&” it will turn your TV to CNN.
For the DISH remote, it doesn’t do anything unless you push a button and speak.
For Alexa, it will not respond unless you say its name.
After that, “Alexa STOP!!” will shut her off!
The Alexa app allows you to view every command sent to the unit. It’s pretty cool, like “Computer, view the Romulan ship”!
Rich country problems...
cable systems are rolling out modem/router/cable boxes in one with voice control, google altice one. just wait its coming to all platforms.
Did he have to push your buttons first?
I also adjusted the aluminum (tin) foil and stood on one leg so the ghost would disappear.
Yep, aerial /rabbit ears alignment tech. also. lol
After warming up the TV, lol.
And when the POTUS was on......AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!
Alexa can control your TV. True. A friend who runs an AV integration business was just showing me how to do it.
You can also tell Alexa to “Turn that SH!T OFF!” Or, if you want her to blow a gasket, tell her to “Find me a conservative show with wholesome family values” or “Find me a show without homos.”
“I’m sorry, POF, I cannot do that.”
Ask the Chinese, don’t they already listen in our homes through our TV’s?
Nope. Strictly voice command. Usually, I was the one pushing the buttons... ;-)
Google Home. Alexa. Samsung smart TVs. Roku.

Does the Home/Alexa connect to the Samsung TV? I looked at Samsung TVs and didn’t see anything about voice control. Is there a model that has voice control?
