How do I get Amazon Prime on this TV? ... without an external unit such as PS4.

Amazon Prime works as an app on this TV for me. I had to perform a software update when I first received it in order to make it work, but it did eventually let me enter my credentials and watch Amazon Prime video.

I have not been able to get mine connected to the internet over my Wireless network. I get an error that says "Contact Sony Directly". Otherwise, I would think it would be in the Apps.

Ditto to what T. Whiting said. There's a list on the web that shows what Samsung devices actually have the amazon prime streaming service app. Sadly this is not on the list. *sigh* Would have been an awesome addition.

I bought mine used (like new) and it did not show Amazon Prime as an option until I ran a firmware update. After the update it was immediately an easy to set up option.

I'm not sure Amazon prime is one of the channels you can get using Smart Hub. I think I would direct that to people who run Amazon Prime. I get all my channels using my Bluray player which is connected to my TV. I find that simpler. PS 3 stands for Playstation 3, a gaming console from I believe Microsoft. It costs about what a medium quality computer costs, plays games, Bluray discs, and connects to the internet to get streaming videos as well as allowing you to play against others on the internet. I'm too old to get into the games, and my Bluray player does all the rest for a whole lot cheaper. Whoops, looks like PS3 is by Sony.

I have this unit and just bought membership to Amazon prime but can't get the icon. Do I have to buy a new blue ray to get my Amazon to download ?

Amazon apparently has to provide the app. This is a new year and I hope they don't remain mute on this issue. Prime members need to flood this forum and thread on this issue

My understanding is this player does not support Amazon Prime. I also verified this with live chat. Bummer.

Great TV but it is not a Smart TV...you could maybe stream to the tv from another source such as a Blue Ray that can stream Netflix but not sure about Amazon. In my case my main TV is a smart tv so I am not concerned about the small tv not being able to do that....hope this helps

not sure which list you are viewing. The software update in September included Amazon prime video. That was maybe two updates ago, so it should be there. You can go to settings, and update the software, and it should show up. You may have to re-boot the TV however. (turn it off and on again)

FYI: Amazon Prime video is now available for this model - thought I'd get the good news out! Link to your TV through the Amazon interface first - they'll provide a code for setup on the TV.

There is! It is SUPER easy to access Amazon on this TV. Just push the Amazon button in the upper left corner of the remote and you're on!

"Amazon Instant Video" is available out of the box....not sure if Prime can be added or not.

I have not found a way to access my amazon prime account using the TV alone. There are several different devices (boxes, dvd bluray, . . .) you can purchase and attach to the TV to share the content. My personal opinion I bought this TV and never use the smart features. I connect to the internet via my $100 blu ray player that I can toss once better options and upgrades are in current bluray players. Stick with a dumb TV and use the "Smart" feature of the cheaper options that are connected.

Yes, you can run Amazon Prime -- the icon is even built in already (for both Netflix and Amazon). Your essential need is an HDMI cable, which is an added cost. I haven't actually done this, because it's not movies we screen here. But it's fairly straightforward, and Amazon has great technical help.

This is not an internet connected tv. The only way to access Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu+, ect. Are though devices like videogame consoles, apple tv, that primecast thing.

Make sure you download and install the "Amazon for Tablets" THEN download and install the "Amazon Prime Instant Video". By the way, get the apps from the Amazon.Com site because when I tried to get from the Google App Store, they wouldn't install.
