Advantages: Looks nice Disadvantages: Samsung have no respect for their customers
...I purchased myself a SamsungDVD 709 player shortly after they were first released based upon the reccomendations of several magazines. Also, the fact that it looks pretty good.
Initially, I was extremely pleased with my purchase, having never experienced the DVD phenomonom. However, it all started to go wrong very quickly. I purchased "Something About Mary" which wouldn't work. thinking it was the DVD I returned it, only to be shown it working on another player. I contacted Samsungs so called "technical support". They had heard of the problem but hadn't got a clue what to do about it. They instructed me to leave my contact details and as soon as a fix was available they would contact me. Several weeks passed and still no contact. However, from digging around on the internet it became clear that a fix was available from Samsung yet I...

Advantages: clean looking, excellent quailty, low price, great sound Disadvantages: not a full hd player
...Having purchased the Samsung HT-X30 in a package deal with a Samsung 42" plasma, i can say that i was impressed staright away.
The main dvd unit is the same piano black as my tv, with an eluminated blue power button, again the same as my tv. This system upscales into HD, 1080 to precise, when coupled to an hdtv via a hdmi cable the quality is outstanding, maybe not as good as a genuine hd player, but not bad. I had a top of the range pano 1000w system before and for sound quality the samsung system totally out classes it, 5.1 and 850w, just perfect. The system has an HDMI output, plus a scart and a usb on the front, the remote is easy to use and the system is easily set up. Love it....

Advantages: Reasonably priced and easy to install Disadvantages: Only plays European ( Region 2 ) discs
...I was looking for my first DVD player and the Samsung 709 was a perfect solution. The machine is easy to install and comes with all the connection leads necessary. Within 10 minutes the machine can be up and running.
The sound and picture quality are excellent (even when attached to a portable tv).The machine however is outstanding when you connect it up to a widescreen television as most of the films you will find come in the widescreen format.
The only disadvantage is that it can only play European discs.
If you are looking for a DVD player then you can't go far wrong with the Samsung 709....

**Samsung DVD HD870**
I liked the look of this model for from the first time I saw it was a Samsung. The design is superbly streamline and is the epitome of a classic Samsung model brand. The HD (High definition) title is the best that technology can... more
Setting up was quick and easy.It skipped one channel on automatic channel search but had to use manual channel selection to find it. Played DVD's cleanly. Have not tried to record yet, but reading the manual it looks easy enough. The remote buttons are a more
Well-featured yet easy to use. I use it with a regular TV, so I do not know much about HDMI, DTS sound and all that tech stuff, but it sure
has lots of input and output sockets. :)
My favourite feature is USB host capability: Plug in your USB Mass... more
The Samsung DVD-V6700S (UK version) comes in attractive silver and is quite a wide unit as it supports both DVD playing and video tape recording/playing. The unit height is low, giving a slim appearance, but make sure you have room for the width.
