Duration of ownership: 5 Months
Strengths: nice picture (if working)
Weaknesses:Locks Up - can not retrieve discs
Overall Evaluation: I want my Iron Man DVD back. It is inside and it won't come out! Help! Been using this plaver on about 12 other discs - no big problems - though slow to load and loud (bearable, barely). Picture is good when it works - noticed I can't access all menu items. Was not aware I had to update firmware. Thought I would have a working player for $369. Imagine that was too much to expect. Now I can't even update firmware because locked up. Tried everything (short of sledgehammer). Have tried to contact customer service - NO HELP there! Do not buy SAMSUNG.

Duration of ownership: 7 Months
Strengths: none
Weaknesses:many
Overall Evaluation: Being a huge film buff, I was excited to finally upgrade to Blu-Ray and collect high definition titles. What a disaster it's been since buying this product. Literally, from the first day, I had problems with skipping, pausing and not playing Blu-Rays. After two firmware updates it still didn't work, so I sent it to the shop in NJ where they fixed the problem. It worked well for 90 days, now won't play Blu-Rays at all. so, once again it's back in the shop where they have ordered parts and I'm waiting to see if they can fix it. I've been on the phone with technicians 10 times and all have agreed that they provide more technical support on this product than any other. It's loud, slow, unreliable and a major disappointment. Save yourself the headaches and frustrations and do not buy this player...

Duration of ownership: 65 Days
Strengths: Very good viewing quality, ease of use, energy efficient feature. Easy to use menus.
Weaknesses:Need to upgrade firmware out of the box, a task that is difficult for some folks.
Overall Evaluation: very good price, player does a fantastic job with blu-ray, a very good job with regular dvd. Be aware that to create the firmware update cd you must be able to burn an iso file. Other than that, a wonderful player. Energy saving feature comes on sooner than I like. I have gotten very good support from Samsung on the phone.

Weaknesses:A bit slow
Overall Evaluation: This is my second purchase of this player - good product. Rememeber to update the firmware. I purchased it as a gift several months after buying one for myself. After a review of what is available on the market I decided on the same model.
