Connect a Keyboard & Mouse to your Samsung TV
Connect a Bluetooth or USB keyboard and mouse to your Samsung TV to make it easier to navigate the settings, use the internet browser, and enter account credentials. While most Samsung TVs are bluetooth enabled, you may need to double check the specifications of your specific TV. Follow the steps below in the dropdowns - the step-by-step guides are divided by year of manufacture.
Note: Bluetooth or USB keyboard and mouse connection may not be supported on certain TV models. Please refer to our Support page for Specs (BT/USB HID Bult-in capabilities)
