Samsung BD-P1500 review

The Samsung BD-P1500 is dirt cheap at around £170, and it has a certain charm with its rounded edges and bold controls. A good choice of features and the ability to play 1080/24p pictures effortlessly on your TV make the P1500 a promising option for people looking to switch to Blu-ray players Read more

Samsung BD-P1000 review

Samsung's BD-P1000 is the first Blu-ray player to arrive in the UK and claims to revolutionise your viewing by displaying high-definition content in the latest 1080p standard. The image quality is undeniably impressive -- the best we've ever seen -- but only rich enthusiasts will stomach the price tag Read more

Samsung BD-D8500M review

The Samsung BD-D8500M Blu-ray player appears to offer it all -- a 500GB PVR, 3D support and Internet connectivity. But its multitasking issues and unconvincing media-streaming capability rather take the shine off this ambitious package. Read more

Samsung BD-D7500 review

Bafflingly small, the BD-D7500 pushes high-street Blu-ray design into the highfalutin realm once monopolised by a certain overpriced Danish brand. One to audition if you want a net-connected BD player that's as pretty as a picture. Read more

Samsung DVD-HD850 review

A DVD player that 'upscales' normal DVD video to high-definition resolution, this is an absolute must for anyone who has emptied their bank account buying a hi-def TV. With great connectivity and a beautiful picture, this is one of the bargains of the year Read more

Samsung BD-P3600 review

The fantastic BD-P3600 is the fastest-loading Blu-ray player we've seen so far. It's also easy on the eye, with a sleek, curved design and excellent image quality. Its media-playback capability is a slight letdown, but the BD-P3600 would be a worthwhile addition to your home cinema Read more
