Can any keyboard be used with a Samsung 46" 6500 series or does it take a special keyboard for TV's?

It is listed as "wireless keyboard compatible" with the 6500 series....Look up Samsung UN50ES6500 50-Inch 1080p 120Hz 3D Slim LED HDTV (Black) for example...browse down to the section "From the Manufacturer"....browse further in this section to to "Samsung LED TV Comparison Chart"

I have a 46" 6580 series Samsung Smart TV - made is July 2012. I hve used the Samsung 1500 Keyboard with this TV and it is supposed to work with higher models (7000-8000-9000 etc). When I was shopping for a TV Costco had the 6500 series TV in their store but this was not a"smart" TV. So I went with the 6580. I did try a Logitech A400 Keyboard but found out that the Logitech would not connect as i could not install the software. I may be wrong but I believe that the Samsung TV has an Android operating system so it needs to connect by a Bluetooth connection. The Samsung 1500 Keyboard links up easily with the 6580 TV and makes using the Apps a whole lot easier. Using the remote to enter data in to the web browser, Skype, Pandora etc too painful. Whether it will work with the straight 6500 or 5000 series or even a 2011 model TV is doubtful.

Doubt it. If the keyboard connects via bluetooth, then no. This is the model before Samsung came out with the "Smart TV" line. It uses an archaic internet setup with yahoo widgets.

No keyboard is required since the TV has a virtual keyboard for necessary inputs. Using your hand you can type in your inputs fairly easily. Otherwise you'll need to use the remote for keyboard input. There are USB ports, but I'm unaware if these support external keyboards, wired or wireless.

janique myers, This keyboard is not compatible with the UN46eh5300. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products. --Mr. S

Its a great keyboard/mouse combo but is designed for PCs. I would talk to the people at Samsung. Samsung like Apple tends to lean toward proprietary hardware!

The keyboard came with a dongle that I have used with the samsung and TCL brands of tv, that model was pre curiosity, but had netflix and some other apps preloaded, so I would say that it will work

It works like a regular USB keyboard as far as I can see. If the smart TV works with your current USB keyboard, then it most likely can work with this keyboard

It didn't come with a keyboard, and I haven't set it up yet to fully know the answer, but from what I've gathered so far a wireless Bluetooth keyboard will be fine! Picture awesome on this TV!,

This works with the Samsung HU8550 (2014) TV. However, none of the gesturing (two finger scrolling, double-click for Enter) seem to work.

There is basically no way to answer this unless you own one and have tried it. My TV was listed as "Works with", the Samsung website says it works with mine, my TV is listed right on the BOX of the keyboard as "Compatible" and yet...not. To say the least, it's frustrating. Buy it, try it, send it back if it doesn't. Buy the Logitech wireless if you are out of options (I bought the Logitech and it works pretty well)

The tv does not come with a keyboard, samsung does make one that is compatible with the tv

Theoretically, yes. However, my experience is that the wireless keyboard experience with Samsung TVs leaves much to be desired. My advice would be don't invest in a wireless keyboard. It will just frustrate you.

Honey303, Many of the HID-Compliant keyboards will work. We can't endorse specific model numbers or brand names here, but most popular brands like Microsoft and Logitech will work just fine. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products. --Mr. S

I cannot speak to the Samsung television, but I did use this item to contact a wireless keyboard and also a Bluetooth earpiece to a device.

Mine did not. I was going to order the keyboard separately, but they were not 'yet' available. Then I found that the keyboard is not compatible with the YouTube search feature and other appplications, so I have not ordered one. The TV is great, as is Samsung customer service (best I have experienced). Ditto for Amazon!

Yes. Check out the Logitech K400 with built-in track pad. Works just fine on this TV.

I have a Samsung NP900X4C and overall not too please. It's been quirky. I do not like the samsung's short travel keys, keyboard backlight is useless, and touchpad is too large as it hinders typing.
