Processing:
The player is easily noticeable, which must be neither good nor bad, but here simply is to stand as a statement. The processing itself is cheap, what you realize mainly because these are the keys and Co from cheap plastic. The ark of the player acts not overly stable, as seen no problem, however, because you do not often touches them directly. The drive itself makes a good impression.
The display on the front and also the control buttons give the entire instrument a very noble impression and I must say that I was a total already surprised how noble the player looks when you him only so considered (design is a matter of taste). Almost one in the player, but this feeling evaporates quickly.
Blu-Ray Quality:
When playing Blu-Rays makes this player a good figure and is sufficiently fast. All key formats are quickly loaded from the disk and can be well controlled with the remote control also. Remote condition itself is relatively large, which I feel to be unnecessary as it is by far not need so many keys, but that is primarily, therefore, that one could use the remote control also has a Samsung TV. For me it went well at first, which I think is very positive.
Compared to a Sony player and a LG image quality was almost equal and I would say that you can do something wrong here with either the one or the other.
Internet video and SMART features:
What I find particularly interesting is that the manufacturers are trying today to integrate as many smart functions in the player. This has the advantage for me that I, for example, Amazon Instant Video can watch directly on TV without me having to buy a new TV. But I had to quickly learn how to, just because an app is there, that far is that is this to operate properly also.
If you want the Samsung player on the overview of installed applications, from where you could come to Amazon Instant, needs one felt eternal charging time. Even worse is then in the app itself, what do I have to blame not only Samsung but also Amazon. But this is especially annoying then when you simply have to wait until times of 10-15 seconds between each display. That makes this Sony player () already significantly better and faster all in all, definitely.
All in all, I was a bit surprised that Samsung here a product poses to the market in which even not to run the applications from Samsung tidy. For each of the thus would like to use the player for its smart features, I can only recommend either schedule a lot of time or to buy a slightly better model. The Sony described above has, moreover, considerably more Internet providers like that's the case with Samsung, which I still see as additional advantage.
Conclusion:
All in all, I would buy these players under any circumstances again. Sure he can play Blu-Ray well and allowed at the quality also a big mistake, but the Internet functions and the Smart Apps are due to the low performance of the device simply unusable. Degrees in the next few years we streamed over the Internet but always important. I myself use to date this player here () with the constant upgrades is getting faster. The operation of Netflix, Amazon Instant max cathedrals and application works here without major delays. The Samsung Player that was really a headache.
