The Samsung UN40ES6100FXZA 40" Class Slim LED HDTV is an ultra slim 1080p HD panel with Samsung's own Smart TV technology. You will be able to watch your favorite movies while you browse the Web or explore the smart hub. Access all your apps and download new ones, such as Netflix, Facebook, YouTube, Hulu Plus and Twitter.
Samsung's Smart TV has retooled its smart hub feature to further expand its access to a world of online entertainment. Smart hub enables multitasking and delivers an optimized viewing experience with single point access to the content that's the most important to you. It also allows you to search through hundreds of apps and use the fully optimized Web browser for a seamless user experience.
Plug in a USB thumb drive (not included) into one of the set's three USB ports and view a JPEG picture file slide show while you listen to a soundtrack of MP3 files from the same drive. It's USB wireless compatible too. Just two stereo speakers (10W x 2) can create an uncanny surround sound illusion thanks to the wizardry of SRS TheaterSound HD.
The UN40ES6100FXZA features AllShare Play, which enables your TV to wirelessly access and stream content from any compatible device, like a PC. That means you can share movies, photos and music all through a single device - your TV. Now with the benefits of cloud technology, you can access and even share content when you're away from home.
Finally, the UN40ES6100FXZA is Skype compatible. With built-in Wi-Fi, all you need is a Web camera accessory and you can Skype with family and friends right on the big screen.

I use this as entertainment for my fitness area. I needed a great TV on the wall with a small profile and this fit the bill. Also, I wanted a Smart TV in order to get the right fitness routines, so the combo was great.

There are so many brands of flat screens and substantail differences in quality of picture, connections, and design. Samsung nailed it again with this TV. If you are looking for a cheap TV buy one but if you appreciate quality buy Samsung!

Comments about Samsung UN40ES6100FXZA 40" Class Slim LED HDTV:
My only 4 complaints are:
1) The software/hardware methods to enhance the video experience on video lower than 1080p are interesting. I compare this with how Receivers/Amplifiers produce sound. Some are bright, flat, dull, rich... It is worth mentioning that enhancing video lower than 1080p is better than nothing.
2) The SmartHub layout and apps cannot be organized and there is no option to remove the default apps.
3) The Source inputs that are displayed only show up when the Video is active. This causes issues with universal remotes, such as the Logitech Harmony. The video source list should be static and in the same order.
4) Forget using the browser as there is not enough memory to render most sites.
Given these nick-picky complaints, I am overall very impressed with this display and it has improved dramatically over the 7 year old 40" Samsung 1080p it replaced.

Just buy it – you will never regret!
It does great job as TV, but you can also watch any content on the NET.
Even without any keyboard you have several options how to navigate your browser on TV.
Everything is very simple and self-explainable.
So, SmartHUB is really Smart HUB!
Plus, it's very cool way to show your photos as a photographer to your guests.
Images calibrated for print and exported in sRGB mode, look beautiful without any TV calibration.
And if you are looking for great sound you must buy dedicated equipment
P.S. B&H is always the best customer service I ever see.

Comments about Samsung UN40ES6100FXZA 40" Class Slim LED HDTV:
The features and picture quality of this TV are amazing. Great clarity. Excellent black level. Crisp edges. Blue-ray movies are incredible. I only have one point to make about this TV and it's something I have never seen on any other TV or even my smaller Samsung. When the TV is off the screen has a "wavy" appearance. It looks very distorted when viewed at an angle. We don't see this distortion when the TV is on but it is definitely there when it is off. I called Samsung and they say it is normal. I am no expert but in comparison to every other 40" LED TV I have seen when off, I have not seen this screen distortion. I just hope it IS normal and Samsung is not just telling me that so I don't return it. Still, when on, the picture is beautiful and crystal clear.

I bought this product as a replacement for an old bedroom TV. It is juat the right size for my bedroom and the picture and speed are excellent. The only criticism I could have is that directions for assembling the base could be greatly improved.
