 A piece of junk and ZERO customer service January 5, 2009
This product was defective from the moment I got it. Frequent audio dropouts during playback with any disc. I sent it in for repair and they sent it back exactly as broken as it ever was. Now they will only ask me to send it in AGAIN and are completely rude about it to boot. There is a reason this is discounted over the Sonys. Samsung knows this player is defective and just wants to unload them. DO NOT BUY unless you just want to flush 200+$ and a chunk of your life down the toilet.
 Couldn't be happier January 4, 2009
I compared this DVD player to the Sony models...couldn't tell the difference and the price was much better on the Samsung.

I had purchased a Samsung 650 Series LCD television a couple of months ago, and wanted the Samsung player because it interacts with the television. I didn't need to add another remote to the mix. I was a little concerned with the fair amount of negative reviews of this product. However, I took the chance. I am glad I did. This player performes exactly as it should. I didn't want a player with a lot of bells & whistles, and this player does exactly what I wanted it to. It does a good job of upgrading the quality of my older movies. It even plays dvds that I made myself on an older recorder, copied from vhs-c tapes, made when my 26 year old son was a youngster!! I bought this before Thanksgiving and waited this long to see if it would perform as it should. It has. If you want a good basic machine, you can't go wrong with this one. You can't beat Amazon's price either.
SLOW, BUT GOOD BLU-RAY PLAYER January 2, 2009
This was my first blu-ray player and first experience with blu-ray movies.
As always, Amazon was Johnny on the spot with prompt delivery.
Hook up and start up of the player was simple and painless using an HDMI cable and digital optical cable for sound. The player was hooked up to a Samsung 52" lcd tv (quite possibly the coolest this I've ever purchased aside from my first DeWalt cordless screw gun).
My wife and I were stunned as we watching the beginning of Iron Man on blu-ray...check out the mountains in the opening scene!
Movies on blu-ray are comprable to the difference between regular TV cable and HD channels. Wow.
My only complaint is that the player does take time to load movies...perhaps due to the extra memory the discs deal with....but I can live with that.

Got myself a Birthday/Christmas present when it was on sale for $212.00
Great right out of the box.
Didn't need to upgrade firmware.
Great picture, great sound.
I highly recomend this player.
