    • In short, if you want it for the DVD/BR it's a great player, but if you want to use any of the additional features, you may want to try something else
    • Thinking I may have a defective player, because I was using a regular Samsung Bluray without incident, I went online and discovered this to be a very common problem with this player
    • At first I'd purchased it for my mother so she could use it mainly for Netflix, with the added benefit of it being a bluray player

    • I bought this blu-ray player in large part because it was labeled as a "smart" player, with wi-fi connection and the ability to stream Netflix.

    • Player is slow to load titles from queue.
    • The only reason I really wanted to salvage this player is because it really shines when the Bluray discs actually play properly

    • Other than this its a great player for a good price.

    • After testing it out and playing with the different apps, it was obvious this was a very good player with an awesome picture and sleek design.
    • One of the things I tried was to pause the movie in hopes that it would fill the buffer and would be ok after a couple minutes, but the player was so slow to see the remote, I gave up

    • I just had my player drop dead 12 days after the warranty expired
