Customer Reviews for Samsung - Smart 3D Wi-Fi Ready Blu-ray Player

This is my third dvd player that I owned from Samsung, and by far is the best, the depths and color in 3-D images are awesome it seems you are actually touching them. We have been only watching animated movies in 3-D, there are not many real life movies to watch, for now we will enjoy what we have.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive
I would recommend this to a friend!

Blue Ray D5500.

from CA
Expertise:Beginner
The picture quality is great. Functions are good as well. I do though miss the time display. Initial set up not bad when purchasing TV as well from Samsung. HDMI to TV, and for me due to older component system AV cables. The sound quality is great!!! Down side is when I turn off the component(Surround Sound) it shuts off the power to the blue ray then when I turn Surround on it activates Any-time net and I have to choose source on TV. I have not yet had the chance to trouble shoot to see if fix. All in all I do like the blue ray player. Thank You Samsung for a great product!!!
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: av outputs shut power off to player.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Slow; Doesn't remember where you stopped the movie.

OK, I knew that the player didn't remember where it was in a movie when you turn it off but I didn't think it would bother me so much. But it takes so long to read the disc and then you have to skip through all the menus to start the movie and then you have to skip through the movie to find the spot where you left off. It is annoying that my 10 year old player can remember the disc position and this thing can't.
It can read movies, music and pictures from my network server.
The internet apps take a long time to load and the interface is clunky.
I have a Samsung TV too and I tried the Anynet+ feature but I don't see how you use this if you ever play a CD through the player because you have to keep the TV on! If you turn off the TV, the Blu Ray player turns off. Also, when you use this and turn off the Blu Ray, the Samsung TV goes to the next input which is the cable in. I can't use the cable in so it just goes to snow! So I disabled this and plugged the Blu Ray into HDMI 1 and the TiVo into HDMI 2. With Anynet+ off, when I turn off the Blu Ray, the TV goes to HDMI 2 and I can watch tv without flipping through the other 5 inputs!
The best thing about the player is the price.
Pros: Inexpensive, great picture, connects to network server to play my media
Cons: doesn't remember movie position, slow disc loading
I would recommend this to a friend!

First Blue Ray

Expertise:Intermediate
This is the first blue ray player we have owned and seem to be pretty straight forward. I do like the touch controls on the player. Was a bit disappointed that we had to get a wireless adapter for it, but it wasn't that bad.
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, touch controls
Cons: no wireless adapter included

The player displays gorgeous video on my Samsung tv. The images are far sharper than dvd or cable hdtv visuals. The sound is also impressive. The remote features a Netflix button - very cool! The app store is enormous, much more than you could dream of using. The unit is easy to set up and configure.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Lightweight
