Most helpful customer reviews 12 of 12 people found the following review helpful. Stylish, nice operation By Kenneth M Woog I own two and they seem to work reasonably well. I have only experienced one glitch during operation that required stopping and restarting a movie. I have been using a PS3 and I never experienced a glitch like that. I was a bit disappointed with the networking capability. It does not work with my TVersity server. It sees the files (both audio and video) but can't play any of them them. I hope that firmware updates allow for a wider range of file types. Still all in all I like the styling, small size, low power and is very quiet. 12 of 13 people found the following review helpful. Very Satisfied!! By msong Good quaility blue ray player, easy setup and automiatically updates when connected to the internet. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. great first player By RICHARD GUZMAN This is my first blu ray and ii is awesome. It has so many features and settings to get it just where you want it. From other reviews i have read, all they have to say is, "..This blu ray player sucks because it doesn't have the same things this other player has......this is not the best player." Well its not.... but for 100 dollars...its a steal. the reasons this blu ray isn't worth a few hundred to a thousand dollars is because: the wireless is not completely wireless, its has a port on the back that needs an wireless adapter to make it wireless ready. This adapter is around 50 dollars, soo... that sucks but its my first player so i don't really care. I realized after I found out about this review, that computers can get on the internet and that blu rays do not have to be on the internet too. LOL Second, Samsung lacked to include a few features on this player, i do not know if it was on purpose for the price but i do not know. if your watching a movie and decide to change a setting on your blu ray and click play again you will find yourself at the very beginning of the previews. Weird i know. Lastly, the player spins a little loud for certain dvd's. I have noticed it more on regular dvd's than blu ray movies. this is still a great blu ray to me. these little things are a bother but for these three things that can easily be avoided, probaly saved me 400 dollars in extra cost to have these features added and problems fixed.
