    Samsung BD-D5500 3D Blu-ray Disc Player (Black)

    • Connection problems are VERY UNLIKELY to be the player's fault
    • Bought the player last November and worked fine till a couple of months ago
    • Instead I called up the local store where I bought it and exchanged it for the Sony BX-58.It was a very nice player until it wasn't.
    • I love my Blu-ray Disc Player
    • very decent 3d blueray player
    • This is by far one of the worst players I've seen
    • Great player
    • If you're building your 3D entertainment center this is a great player for you.
    • I understand the need to save money (and trees) by not providing a printed manual, but I'm getting too old to be reading 74 pages of a manual!Anyway this player is so much better than the super-cheap (and non-networked
    • This player continuously loses it's connection to the internet
    • And one missing like operating Voltage only 110V, Usually many players comes with 110V to 220V.I didnt observe or else i would have gone to buy which is having 110V to 220V option.
    • I really love this player
    • How many cents did they save by omitting this feature?Bottom-line: If you want the 3D BluRay capability and own a Samsung TV you will enjoy the picture quality of the combination, although I suspect that cheaper BlueRay players will not be much worse in this department
    • This player works just fine, but It didn't come with the
    • This is a great Blu Ray player
    • Instead of fantasizing about taking the player back to the store and cursing out the salesclerk, or writing a REALLY scathing review for Amazon, just take a prosiac, and resign yourself to the fact that it you'll have to spend several hours studying the manual and a few more hours doing the setup.
    • This is a very nice Samsung blu-ray player
    • This player is a decent Blu-ray player
    • So far it has been a great player with fast loading and nice apps.
    • The player took a dump on me...in a general sense.
    • This is because,to my surprise and for reasons that I do not have enough technical savvy to explain, I quickly discovered that this player and (I suspect) most similar 3D Blu-ray players, are not compatible with my 5-year old Insignia brand (manufactured by LG) 42" plasma tv (720p)
    • While you can get these services on with other brand "smart" players, the best solution for now may be a Roku streamer Roku 2 XS 1080p Streaming Player Alternatively, Internet chatter suggest that you may be able to access these services indirectly though the Internet browser app
    • It works almost as well as the twelve year old Panasonic DVD player it replaced!
    • this is the best dvd player I've ever owned
    • (Many more expensive players are "slot loading")2
    • Other than that, a fair player.
    • COMPARED TO OTHER SAMSUNG BLU-RAY PLAYERSWhen comparing Samsung players, DO NOT assume that a higher price or higher-model-number means more features---MOST more-expensive higher-model-# Samsung players have FEWER features than the DB-D5500
    • This player has wasted a lot of my time with costumer support and caused disappointment for my family when movie nights end prematurely with no movie being shown.
    • i love this blu-ray disc player for the picture and 3d it has good apps with samsungthe
    • excellent fast bluray player
    • If you have the same setup as me, that is the TV connected to your LAN but NOT your bluray player, then turn off the player before trying to connect to the internet (for Netflix, etc.), if the player is "on", the player will look for an internet connection and fail to find one
    • I expressly sought an inexpensive player because it seems stupid to put up with the hassles and poor performance of wireless.
    • Great player, just needs to be connected to the internet and updated.
    • This player constantly looses its code for connecting to Netflix and I have to go online and enter a new code to activate the player for my account.
    • It's a really good blu ray player, I was always looking for something like this
    • Is this a decent player, yes
    • Hi The player is quite good and picture quality awesome
    • Setting up a non-Samsung player to work with a Samsung TV will be worse
    • This is a great 3D Blu-ray player.
    • Fortunately, most blu-ray movies come with a DVD copy as well, and this player is only mediocre at playing DVDs, not outright broken.
    • Other than that, it's a great blu ray player!
    • I absolutely love this player, it's been around six months that i ordered
    • Even with the extra WiFi Adapter, this player sucked
    • In order to connect the player to the wifi network you have to fork over another $80 for the dongle - a plain rip-off, especially in the light of what happens once you manage to connect to the internet - see below
    • If you want a great BluRay 3D player this will do the job and will last for years
    • and I'll do a little more research into a better player.
    • This player "accepted" new blu ray discs but refused to play them a second time.
    • All-in-all, it is a good player, though.
    • Fortunately, most blu-ray movies come with a DVD copy as well, and this player is only mediocre at playing DVDs, not outright broken.
    • The blu-ray player well is a blu-ray player, it works.
    • Now the player refuses to play Blu-Ray discs because it doesn't have an Internet connection, despite the fact that it was never connected in the first place
    • Terrible flu ray player.
    • But as for the Samsung products, when they work, its beautiful, so nice to use the tv remote to control the blu-ray player, and all the optimal picture settings and 3-D settings work automatically because of the Samsung connection
    • They are as good as
