    How do I reboot my Samsung Smart TV?

    Press and hold the power button on your remote until the TV turns off and on again. This should only take about 5 seconds.

    Can I watch Netflix on UE55KU6500
    angelo
    over 1 year ago
    If your smart TV is listed as such in the technical specifications, it should have the ability to connect to the internet and run streaming apps like Netflix. However, it is always a good idea to double-check that the TV has a Netflix app or that Netflix is listed as a supported app on the manufacturer's website or in the TV's manual.

    What does the "vesa mount" feature of this TV mean?
    jannet
    over 1 year ago
    A VESA mount is a type of mounting interface that is commonly used to mount flat panel TVs, monitors, and other display devices to a wall or a stand. The VESA mount standard specifies the distance between the mounting holes on the back of the display device, as well as the size of the mounting holes. Using a VESA mount can be useful for TVs in a number of ways. For one, it can help to save space in a room by allowing the TV to be mounted on a wall rather than placed on a stand or entertainment center. This can be especially useful in smaller living spaces where floor space is at a premium. In addition, a VESA mount can allow for more flexibility in terms of positioning the TV. With a VESA mount, the TV can be mounted at a variety of different heights and angles, depending on the user's preference and the layout of the room. This can make it easier to find the ideal viewing position for the TV. Finally, a VESA mount can also help to improve the overall aesthetics of a room by allowing the TV to be mounted in a way that is more visually pleasing. This can be especially useful in living rooms, where the TV is often the centerpiece of the space.
