Advantages: cheap, simple, does what it says it does
Disadvantages: none for me, but for technoids, not enough gimmicks!

This may be one of the cheapest on the market and may not have all the whojamaphlibs that all the technoids go for, but if you are looking for a decent, sturdy and very reliable little thing to play DVDs on, then this is one for you. If you are not worried about paying a fortune for something to pay your discs on, then this is the one for you. It is a nice, simple, non offensive little thing, in a nice silver colour with a nice little dainty remote ...
...its charm. Not everyone has the time or incline to opt for your big whopper Home Cinema systems, neither do a lot of people have the money. This does what it says on the tin. It plays DVDs for you and doesn't ask anything back from you, other than you follow the warranty....maybe! I like mine and wouldn't consider a really expensive one. You get what you pay for. ...

Advantages: USB, DivX, multi-region
Disadvantages: Periodically loses multi-region, no USB access from remote

Had this player for over a year now and has been brilliant all round. Used remote hack to make multi-region and changed video system from PAL to NTSC (hold Pause until display on player flashes) to stop judder on playback. Has played everything I've thrown at it. It did lose it's multi region setting recently but used remote hack to re-set factory settings and then Zoran file burnt to CD to access region setting menu and now fine again. One drawback ...
...have to press a button on the DVD player to access the USB stick and this can't be done on the remote. Not a major problem though. Has HDMI out which provides better picture quality. Coaxial out for digital sound. Decodes Dolby 5.1 and DTS. As a bonus, it looks pretty sleek too. ... Read review

Advantages: Great quality
Disadvantages: Not very advanced interface

This DVD player is the one that i have in my lounge and is a great one in my eyes and i think i will have it for years to come. It goes very well with my sony LCD HDready television and was very easy to set up and also very quick. It plays pretty much anything and has great quality and is very easy to use, i.e. the remote is very simple layout but with most features available. Plus this dvd player is also a great buy because it is under £100 and ... Read review

Advantages: Size, Upscaling and Sound Quality
Disadvantages: Remote control, menu system keeps forgetting settings...

This Samsung 1080p DVD player is the perfect companion for any of the latest Samsung LCD and Plasma TV's. We currently own the Q96 Plasma model and the F1080 fits just under the TV, it is smaller than the stand on the TV. But it has all of the features of the chunkier 1080p dvd players. Another plus to Samsung customers is that it has the Anynet+ function, meaning you can use the tv remote to control the DVD player. This is suggested as the remote ...
...small and useless in my view. There are a few firmware faults with this model, for example it sometimes won't play a DVD on initial startup and you have to restart the player as it just blue screens. The upscaling quality is good, however I have only my xbox on vga connection to compare it to. Upscaling quality: 8/10 Connections: 9/10 Remote: 2/10 Menu System: 5/10 (can be annoying at times) Sound Quality: 10/10 (on 5.1 setup) Anything else ... Read review
