" ... It is quiet, not too small and not too big, streams like a satellite and up-scales DVD's to near UHD Quality. ... "
" ... I have a 4k TV, so I bought a Sony 4K player. ... The difference between VHS and DVD is profound, the Difference between BluRay or Hd-DVD was good enough for the money. ... "
" ... Blu-Ray seems sharp enough for 40-50 inch TV's but if you're looking for UHD quality and a sharp image on a very large screen set, wait and by a UHD Blu-Ray player. ... "
" ... The Samsung is a "smart" Blu Ray player offering WiFi streaming options and plays audio and video files on flash drives in a multitude of formats. ... "

" ... The control labels (on, off, play, eject) are black and the unit is black. ... "
" ... The ONLY issue that bugs the heck out of me is the disc menu. ... Once the player brings up the main disc menu It's almost impossible to tell which button is highlighted. ... "
" ... The buttons (power, eject, play/pause, and stop) are on the top of the player, are not lit, and do not offer useful tactile feedback. ... (That button placement also makes it inconvenient to stack other devices on top of this one.) ... But after only a couple of weeks of use, the buttons are frustrating enough that I have asked the sellers about their "open box" return policy. ... "
" ... It continues from where you left off if you just press stop or home bluray player menu. ... "
" ... Only complaint, the on-box controls are on the top, not the front ... "
" ... The absence of external buttons and dials for control is annoying. ... "
" ... The buttons are arranged in a circle, so you have to have a good view of the top of the player from the front edge to about 3-4" back. ... If you look at the unit head-on and try to find the buttons on top with your fingers, it's difficult to tactically locate them and there's no tactile feedback to tell if you've pressed them (you'll also have to have them memorized by location). ... The poor button ergonomics and inconsistent disc startup get this player one star. ... "
" ... Also, it doesn't always save my stop or pause position in a video after the unit is powered off, which is very frustrating. ... "

" ... I like the player, but I'm disappointed that the remote won't control the basic functions of my Vizio TV. ... The remote has buttons to control power and volume on a TV, but it says it only controls a Samsung brand TV. ... I've searched online to see if there is some way to get it to control my Vizio TV, and tried a bunch of codes I hoped would work, but had no success. ... I guess I'm stuck using 2 remotes. ... "
" ... You pretty much have to use the remote control. ... "
" ... Remote layout is a little strange too but usable. ... "
" ... The remote is not very responsive when I attempt to select DVD from main menu. ... "
" ... Remote is small and not well suited for large hands. ... Difficult layout on remote not user friendly. ... "

" ... You can adjust the brightness down on the display. ... "
" ... They're touch-sensitive like a smartphone screen, rather than clicky. ... "
" ... It is by far the digital display. ... A digital display should still be always there as with this player. ... "
