Operates like 1970s PacMan
on December 11, 2013
Posted by: Stabler

Expertise:Intermediate
This would have to be the worst Product I've ever purchased. It's clunky, does not respond to instant touch and I still cannot believe SamSung put their name on this Unit. It reminds me of 1970 PacMan ... do not waste your money.
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My wife lover her new player. It's like having a smart TV without the added expense of having to buy one. Power indicator should be on front of the unit ...
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: power indicator light on top
I would recommend this to a friend!

Horrible Blu Ray Player.
on January 22, 2014

Expertise:Intermediate
When I bought this blu ray player, it's very noisy with loading, which is not a problem. But, the features on it load very slow. It's always had a network connectivity problems... Not even a year later it won't even connect to the internet. I have several blu ray players and NONE of them have had issues connecting to wifi. This is a waste of money, might as well buy a DVD player because that's all you're getting with this product. It's more like a special DVD player that can play DVDs & blu ray discs. Good luck if you want to test your luck out with it. ** A real idea blu ray player if you don't want to use features or connection with the internet or want a product that lasts over 6 months.**
Pros: Inexpensive
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Excellent for the price

Expertise:Intermediate
I got this DVD player primarily to use for Netflix...however, after receiving it, I am now using it for everything. I have a Samsung TV as well, so the remote control automatically is synced up. So I can control both devices with one remote. The only issue, since I have to find something, is there is no light indicator when the unit is on. So, unless you change formats and decide to go to the DVD player homescreen, you really can't tell if its on or not. But that is the only issue. For the price, I could not ask for a better product. And I love that it automatically plays the highest version of the DVD, so everything looks HD.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight

Good value. Netflix crashes a bunch.

Easy to use and a good value for the money but the Netflix app has it's problems. My unit has crashed several times after watching an episode on Netflix. If I try to start another show the unit goes to a blank screen and locks up. The only way to proceed is to unplug the unit and reboot it. I may return the unit if a fix is not ordered.
Pros: Inexpensive
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

good paper weight

Expertise:Expert
It is great for a great a paper weight. I have had problem with it after three weeks. I thought it was my internet connection turns out, it was the player. If it freezes which it does, you have to unplug it from the wall to get it working again. The blue ray player plays movies sometimes, when it wants. I lost my money! DO NOT GET!!!
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, poor wifi connection
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Got it cheap, but it didn't last.
on April 16, 2014
Posted by: SalEedy

Expertise:Intermediate
I bought this at a fairly cheap price off the shelf. Unfortunately, it only lasted long enough for the warranty to expire. As it is right now, it's a gamble every time I put a Blu Ray disc in. Sometimes it feels like loading, sometimes...not so much. Another problem I have is with the mandatory anti-piracy software, Cinavia. While I understand this has nothing to do with Samsung, as it's actually the law that every BluRay player manufactured after 2012 have this, I still think it's a bunch of malarkey. I half suspect that the mandatory software is the root of the problem. Instead of allowing manufacturers to develop their own software that will work with the products they make, broad legislation forces them to cobble something together to maybekindasorta work.
Pros: Inexpensive
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
