  • The "Smart Hub" Internet applications are fine when they work
  • I bought a samsung smart hub in addition to a Samsung 55" LED TV.

Reviews around look (5.00 of 5)

  • The Samsung Blu-Ray has a sharp look and the quality of dvd's are very nice
  • Its small, sharp looking and faster than my old player.
  • This unit is very sharp looking with a usb port on the front right corner, which will be connected as soon as I receive the Western Digital TV Plus 1080p Media Player to stream all of my A/V files from the laptop instead of connecting the laptop to the tv with a 25' HDMI cord and audio cables
  • Buying this model for the internet services is like getting excited about a new VHS tape deck, neat looking on the rack but you will not be impressed when you see the performance, or lack of...
  • So if you're looking for a player, but don't care about Netflix, then this one could be fine for you

Reviews around buy (5.00 of 5)

  • I paid 129.99 at Best Buy on Black Friday where I had my eye on a Samsung 3D HDTV.
  • My Wife and I bought our first one at Best Buy, then had to return it and exchanged it, because it wouldn't play Blu-Ray
  • I'm taking it back today before my 30 day period is up at Best Buy to return it
  • Anyway, for the price -- about $100 from an Amazon partner -- this was a great buy
  • It was purchased at Best Buy, on the advice of one of their salesmen.

Reviews around tv (4.26 of 5)

Reviews around price (4.08 of 5)

  • So I responded only to eliminate further E-Mails SORRY!!!
  • I consider that unacceptable given the relatively high price we paid.
  • I found the Samsung BD-D6500 at a pretty good price here on Amazon and when I confirmed that it had built-in WiFi and could receive streaming media, I jumped on it
  • The closest competitor would be an Oppo (at a MUCH more expensive price).
  • I purchased the BD-D6500 on-line at Pauls TV and got a great price ($128)

  • Tried VUDU and found to have great picuture and sound quality
  • Everything works well, great quality, no major problems but one

Reviews around ray (3.68 of 5)

  • I bought The Dark Knight Blu-ray disk and it looked really good
  • It's just a really good Blu-ray player and that's what I wanted
  • I have a wireless network in my house, so my primary objective was a solid blu-ray player with wifi capabilities
  • We replaced the 6500 with Sony/Google TV and its so cool! 10X better than any blue-ray player that pretends to offer the internet -definitely worth the difference in price

Reviews around feature (3.61 of 5)

  • I can't believe these magazines that rave about how great Samsung's "Smart Net" feature or whatever it is called
  • Even though it lacks an option, it has some really nice features
  • So I responded only to eliminate further E-Mails SORRY!!!
  • Pandora, YouTube, streaming photos and videos from your PC to the TV are all really great features.
  • An unexpected feature/benefit is that I am able to use my Samsung TV remote to operate the blu-ray player which means one less remote to keep track of

Reviews around product (3.22 of 5)

  • The product is great, no issues, works as advertised, couldn't be any simpler to install and use right out of the box.
  • Sorry but even though i just began to love Samsung products (ditched blackberry after 5-6 years of loyalty) as with my Samsung Galaxy S3 and my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, i had to give this product a 1 Star only because it failed as soon i opened the box
  • Excellent product is pretty good although it is second-hand, I would like to know more about the store selling this equipment because it shows the quality of these

Reviews around connection (1.54 of 5)

  • Hulu plus has the occasional stop mid streaming and netflix (which we use the most) is just about useless claiming poor internet connection
  • BD-D shows 5 bars but keep losing connection to the router every few minutes
  • My wireless connection works fine as I am able to log onto other apps, but when I try to log onto Netflix, it would say I am not connected to the internet
  • If my 802(g) phone or laptop is downloading then I have problems, since the WIFI router will slow down to work with them.4; With regards to WIFI, any interference from other RFI producing electronics can slow down your connection as much as walls and distance can
  • Sometimes, it'll even stop and say it lost connection, causing me to restart the Netflix app

Reviews around drive (1.26 of 5)

  • so I assume it also works easily with the 6500.- I connected an external USB hard drive and thought the personal pictures & home videos (and downloaded internet videos) looked great
  • You will need a thumb drive or external hard drive to get the BD-Live feature to work.
  • I think they look better on my TV than on my computer (probably due to some up-scaling?)- For reference, the Blu-Ray connects directly to a Samsung 46" LED UND46D6400 TV (also 3-D capable) via HDMI
  • After bringing home the Blu ray player I pretty much used it for watching Netflix and some shows off of a hard drive.
  • This player does not have a hard drive, but I feel a 1gig to 8gig jump drive in the back would more than make up for it

  • So I responded only to eliminate further E-Mails SORRY!!!
  • I was also aware of the many negative reviews of the 2010 BD-C6500 and I also noticed that they were mostly in regards to the web enabled apps, and not in regards to video playback
  • There were some negative reviews but they have proven false for me and in the long run the set up was easy to do

Reviews around wifi (1.00 of 5)

  • The wifi is weak, took many tries to login but never stayed connected long enough to get the apps, so the smart TV feature becomes useless unless wired in.
  • i wish that this player worked with the samsung QWERTY remote from the new D7000 TV i bought, but it doesn't seem to.my dad's TV also had wifi sync issues and took a while to "detect" the network.overall, i'm underwhelmed by this player and wonder if i should have bought something else.
  • The wifi doesn't work well in the entertainment center that I
  • so I got a cheap ethernet wifi range extender and that made things
  • THIS IS THE BIG ONE- three months after i bought it the internal wifi adapter broke
