CNET reviewed Samsung BD-P 1500 about a year or so ago.Along with other about how “GREAT” player was I bought it. Blue laser went out after 4 months of not using it or it not being touched,not even powered on in that time.Now it only plays standard DVD’s with the red lens. Blue laser is shot and the red laser tries to read the disc.Today the BD-P1500 has complaints all over CNET,Amazon and more sites, same issue after few months by owners of1500.I wonder how dependable BD-P 3600 is.

yeah but the dam bd35 is discontinued now, so one would have to pick up a 60 or 80 which are the new models that panasonic has out now!!

The best blu ray player is the Playstation 3 but if you look for a stand alone blu ray player that costs less than the ps3 and has all the features of the ps3 you might wanna look at the panasonic dmp bd35. I have this blu ray player and it has the cnet editors choice award.and it is the best stand alone blu ray player…so don’t forget it!!! PANASONIC DMP BD35!!!

What do u mean it writes and records? What player do u have?
AMOVIEROOM, on February 1st, 2010 at 2:40 am Said:

Yeah it does BD-live and Profile 2.0. I picked one up, U have to do a firmware upgrade from 1.0 to 2.0 to get the BD-LIVE. To me it does not take that long to load. I enjoy it very much!

oh my god this is old……..mine reads writes records.DLNA AWSOME, BUT EXSPENSIVE. my bluray recorders way ahead of this
AMOVIEROOM, on February 1st, 2010 at 4:14 am Said:

I have the same player, I love it. I also own A Toshiba HD DVD player and honestly there is no difference. I see a difference BTW this and cable HD this looks better than Cable HD meaning when there is a fast motion scene UC the pixelation on cable but not on the Sammy well for that reason neither the Toshiba. Now, I don’t see the Jaggies except on Movies that I’ve burned and played
(+R -R.) I don’t see it on the SD movies. I love my Sammy!

First I purchased a BD P1400 in Feb 2008, it broke in just 3 month, just outside the warranty expiration. I have to pay to fix it now. Then the BD P1500 went on sale for $199.00 so I purchased it rather then fix the 1400. Well it stopped reading discs. 2 player = two bricks. Who would think 2 different model players would have the same issues. Samsung’s support was very uncompromising and unsympathetic. DON’T BUY THESE PLAYERS!

I’ll stick with my PS3.

I hear you man. This blu-ray really is bad. I returned mine the same week and exchanged it for a Sony BDP-S350. The Sony blu-ray player is amazing.

I own this player,no problems at all.
Great picture in blu-ray movies. I don’t watch standard def movies on this though. dolby true hd/dts hd sounds excellent. Btw,the i do notice some jaggess edges like he said in the review.but,that doesn’t bother me.
ronaldokiller, on February 1st, 2010 at 8:23 am Said:

ive always gone with sony players, but the blueray player that has caught my eye is the new panasonic dmp bd55 its the bomb, what gives it the edge is that it plays normal dvds great and plays blueray superb and it plays div x…

i got this piece of shit blu ray and it wouldnt even read the disc
MainManAus, on February 1st, 2010 at 9:04 am Said:

I picked up the Sony BDP-350 last week and it’s awesome. I’m getting another on Friday. I paid $330 for it. I know it’s a lot cheaper in the US
snowman733, on February 1st, 2010 at 9:22 am Said:

Oh that sucks man, it’s a shame though, this player is really hot! But I was also looking at the Sony BDP-S350 as well, so any complaints on that one, because I need to get some user response on this one.
Mevlevi1207, on February 1st, 2010 at 10:17 am Said:

Whenever I would put a normal DVD in the player…it would say “no disc”. I then checked to see if I had the latest firmware and I did. Then I went back to the store and exchanged it for another one, and this one did the same thing lol, then I just got tired and returned it for a Sony BDP-S350 which works like a dream and decodes Dolby TrueHD right out of the box!
