Very good player and integrates nicely with Samsung TV. Only two gripes:
1. Incredibly slow to load and eject disks, I mean INCREDIBLY! You can make tea quicker.
2. Shipped not set to 1080p, watched my first Bluey thinking it was rubbish. Then read the book and realised my mistake. Watched film again. Why not ship this as it was intended?
 just ok listen............. October 29, 2008

good...hmmm upgrades this is now 2.0 bd live active with a firmware update from website or thro ethernet , NOW DIVX READY ALSO but doesnt like ntsc playback divx no good , why am i bigging this player up ??? divy
To get a true grasp on blu ray you must compare you cant go from just saying i think the picture is great ,Seriously this player is margionly better than PS3- which is so bad man honestly why do peeps say its amazing ,the xbox360 hd plyr is twice! as better for sharpness than ps3 and thats saying something but the 360s colouring and dimness shading is the same as its built in dvd which isnt enjoyable viewing for most people ,ive seen alot of hd blayers thro dif tvs and this player ok it is a nice standard pic and sound is v good! it has no definition its just plane looking its just like its just their so wot ,and you really want a film to look really stunning and crisp this player falls short in my view, its pretty smoothe as in the juddering in some blu ray playback ,altho fare doos it really does try and make it bold and bright colours it really wont make the high quality grade. theirs my 2 pence worth .standard watchable.
p.s if you order the one without the 2 dvds then you get the option to add them as a gift which is the same but you mite find like me you open the box and get a surprise anyways !!

Having previously owned a Samsung DVD recorder which became totally unusable (wouldn't record, and wouldn't always read DVDs) in less than a year, I wasn't in a rush to get another machine of theirs. However, lured by positive reviews and the low price I did buy. Immediately there were problems with disks freezing, not reading etc - as some other reviewers have noted. I would also add that the player lacks weight and feels rather flimsy. When on, the power button exudes a bright blue light which is actually rather distracting when watch films in a darkened room. What looks good on paper, sadly, doesn't make for a good player. Other people have posted very positive reviews, so it can't be that all the players are problematic. Perhaps then it's best to say that Samsung are not the most reliable manufacturer. I returned my player and now have the Sony BDPS350 Blu-ray Disc Player 1080p Full HD which feels solidly made, has excellent picture quality (better than the Samsung) and is altogether a much better buy.
 Very Annoyed October 19, 2008

What can I say about this machine? bought on 15th August, worked great, fantastic picture quality on my 42" LCD and as of 17th October, nothing, zero, zilch. It won't play blu ray discs, dvd and it won't even perform a firmware update via usb or cd or even allow you to access the players set up menu. When I say it won't do anything that isn't strictly true, it still plays cd's, big deal. How would I sum up in one word what this machine is mmm JUNK. Phoning Samsung today so I will see how that goes. Isn't Samsung a Japanese company or something? guess what it says on the back, Made in SLOVAKIA.
The two stars are for the fact when it worked it was great.
UPDATE: Phoned Samsung and they told me to phone Amazon who are sending a replacement, we'll see how long that one lasts.
nice if only October 14, 2008
