Purchased this TV specifically because of its Wi-Fi Internet capabilities, and I can finaly say it was worth it. As of 30th June the BBC I player App is working.

The Samsung "All Share" App has been a revalation, all my music stored, on my recently purchased NAS box, is available on the TV.

All other respects the TV is very good - does what it said on packet and very good value for money.

4.0 out of 5 stars A bit of a mixed bag, 14 July 2012

Contrary to a previous review, this TV now comes with Netflix, LoveFilm and BBC iPlayer installed. Perhaps the biggest surprise given that this is a full HD TV is that there is no HD tuner present. This is not a huge problem given that there are so few HD channels available on Freeview and the picture even on standard definition is very good, but a bit of an annoying omission all the same. Built in WiFi and DLNA is a real plus especially at this price point. Streaming of music, photos and AVI files from my PC works great, but so far I haven't been able to stream a MKV file from my PC, even though MKV is a format that the manual claims the TV supports.
All in all, a very good TV with some excellent features for the price. If only it had an HD tuner this would have been a 5 star review.

Update to review: Streaming of MKV files works using the Samsung AllShare server on my PC, previously I was using the serviio server.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's SMART but not Freeview/FreeSat HD, 4 Aug 2012

I have recently purchased this TV and have to say it really is a good little TV.

Please be aware that it does not have a Freeview/FreeSat HD reciever as stated in the product description on this website but only standard Freeview. This is fine for me as I don't really see the poiint of having the HD channels at the moment as there's not much there yet.

I managed to setup and get running with this with no problem. The stand has three small screws that you need to put in place, my advice would be to line-up one and partly get it screwed in first before aligning the remaining two.

Has good picture, I particularly like the smart angle settings, which means you can adjust the viewing angle to suit your view position, i.e. laying on a bed with the TV positioned alittle higher, giving the best colour quality from the most common postion. This feature is useful in another way as the stand does not have any sort of adjustable angle/tilt options.

Sound is pretty good too, with different sytle settings to suit (Music/voice/movie, etc)

Things to note:
It does come with BBC iPlayer, youTube, netFlix, LoveFilm installed as standard. I do not have netFlix or LoveFilm account, but the apps seem to work fine on the previews provided. youTube and BBC iplayer works fine too and you can watch your favourite programs or video clips in HD!

I did a check both on-line and via USB to see if my firmware needed updating, but both methods told me I have latest version, this was also backed up when I double checked the version numbers on the Samsung website against my TV. So you know your getting the 2012 stock.

ITV player is not available. Different websites claim different things, but it is not available to download on the Samsung Apps interface, and I have the latest software/firmware so its nothing to do with updateing the system. Some website are talking about a legal issue with ITV and Samsung regarding content licenses? So I guess we will have to wait to see if it appears later in the year?

The web browser and AllShare both work fine, and I have been able to access flash based websites and stream media from a USB stick, PC and my Android phone (using DLNA) with no problem.

I'm happy to answer other queries about this TV, if I can, based on the setup I have.
