Remote
Samsung 6580 Series 46" (2012) | Rated 100% by by Ice (Jun, 2012)It would have been nice to have a remote with a small keyboard.
Samsung 6580 Series 46" (2012) | Rated 100% by by Dane-A.-Burnham (Apr, 2013)The one thing I would say I do not like is the feel of the remote, buttons are not placed ergonomically.
