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.

The only connection/app that I see is for Netflix. Other than that, I would say No!

No it does not. To remedy this I use a device called a WD TV Live Streaming Media Player Wi-Fi 1080p AVI Xvid MKV MOV FLV MP4 MPEG. This device plays internet content as well as accesses any files stored on your networked PC. I highly recommend it.

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.

two of my sisters have that TV and yes Amazon Prime Instant Video will stream through it but there is no application inside the TV. you have to use a blu ray dvb, Apple streamer or Ruko but it will look beautiful

I am not seeing the ability to stream Amazon instant video. Anyone know how to do this. My old Blu Ray player kept adding channels to installation.

No. Amazon is not one of the User Interface Apps built in to the TV. However, you can purchase many blu ray players for about a hundred bucks that have Amazon Instant Video, such as my Panasonic. It's still cumbersome though

I use a Roku on mine for Amazon/Netflix... It connects into one of the HDMI ports. Works great!

No. It will stream Netflix but not Amazon Prime movies. That's why it is so cheap. I called LG and inquired about it. They said they have not created a new download to make it work with Amazon Prime and that it "was not a priority at this time". So in other words, they will never create the download to make it work with Amazon Prime even though it advertises that it does work with it. I use it on a spare bedroom TV because the Blu Ray and Netflix work great, but still disappointed that I am not getting full use out of it. It only cost me $32.99 so I'm not too upset either. Panasonic has awesome Blu Ray players, but you are going to pay a little more. Good luck to you.

This is one of the only cons I have found so far with this TV, is the lack of an amazon app.I use my PS3 to stream amazon to the tv though and that works fine.Roku, Playstation, Xbox, some DVD players, etc would be able to remedy this.

You have to use a Sony Blu-ray player or any brand that has a deal with Amazon. Samsung and Amazon seem to NOT play nice together and will likely not come to an agreement anytime soon.

I have not tried it but I can see an amazon icon in my LG tv apps. I do not have any amazon service, but I got 6 months of Netflix subscription free with this tv which I am currently using.

That's a trick question, yes it will play amazon instant video from a device that has the amazon instant video service, but this TV - by itself, does not have Amazon instant video. It is not a "Smart" TV. No apps whatsoever.

I haven't tried, I also have the Amazon version that streams amazon movies, Netflix, Hulu and other apps. I like this product as I only stream Netflix, don't like to pay for movies.

Yes-- all those movies are in your video library and the Amazon channel has a link to all the items in your library. Additionally, just last week, they redesigned the channel interface, so it's much easier to find your items. The Roku is excellent. I love it. We canceled our cable and our satellite and this is it for us. . . plus Amazon prime and Netflix.

yes you can stream Amazon, Net Flix, Hulu +, and most other services that provide streaming videos. It is a great player and well worth the money especially with foreign made DVD's

Not without help. You will need a device like an Amazon Fire Stick or an Xbox that has the Amazon Prime app on it. You plug the device into the HDMI port of the TV and then you can watch Amazon Instant Videos.

If you are asking if this TV can connect to Amazon Prime streaming video, then the answer is "no". This TV has absolutely no Internet connectivity capabilities at all. It's just a plain old TV, although it's a decent one for the price.
