This thing is great. Hooked to my 65js9000 with bd wise. Needed a little adjustment but picture quality is the best I've ever seen. Sound is perfect watched 4K ultra chappie looked amazing and Dolby atmos sounded great. I see people saying the disc is dead but until we can stream better audio codecs I'll stick to discs. I'm a fan of good big speakers not much on soundbar gimmick.
Pros: up converts to 4k nicely, hdr looks great
Cons: remote is junk have to hold button in to rw or ff
I would recommend this to a friend!

Outstanding Picture Quality

Watching movies in UHD HDR is a whole new world of picture quality. It blows away standard 1080P Blu-Ray discs. As long as you have an HDR and WCG TV you are really going to enjoy this product.

Lucky to be one of the first to get one!!!!!

I was so excited when I received a call from UPS on Thursday that my shipment was ready for pick-up. I hooked it up as soon as I got home from work. The picture quality and audio was simply amazing and outstanding. I hooked it up to the UN65JU7500 which does not have HDR and a sound bar that is 8.1 Even without the HDR the picture was still amazing, I can only image how it would look with one of the SUHD models. I watched The Martian and The Scorch a Trials, picture quality was amazing. There is a major difference between the 4K picture and 1080p picture. Do not regret buying this bluray player, really happy with it, can't wait to get the JS9000 in a few weeks to really show the power of the 4K Ultra HD Bluray player.
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I was one of the lucky ones to get one of these from Best Buy on Feb 10th. Got it home and set it up and wow what a picture. The detail and color were amazing. Very easy to set up and use. I just got the 4K version of The Martian and the picture is as good as it gets. The only issue I have is that I think the remote is too small but don't let that stop you from getting one of these, I know you will love it. It also does a great job of upscaling all DVD's.too. I haven't tried it with any CD's but the sound for movies is awesome. Supports Dolby Atmos and everything else you want to throw at it. I have only had it for a few weeks but absolutely no regrets at all.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, versatile

Great First UHD Bluray Player
on March 2, 2016
Posted by: EarlyAdopter2

Expertise:Intermediate
Great player and fairly easy to set up. Although my AV receiver is fairly new, I found that connecting the video HDMI directly to my Samsung 65JS9000 TV worked well. The audio HDMI in connected to my home theater receiver. Pass-through the AVR had occasional "hand shake" issues. That is a problem with the AVR not the 4K player. I am still playing with the settings in the TV, and will check the forum for suggestions. Great product and spectacular video! Would buy again!
Pros: performance and ease of use
I would recommend this to a friend!

This player is great with great picture quality , upscales regular blu ray disc's to near 4K quality. Very fast loading times. I have 2 complaints the remote is to small and not well designed - there is no LED front panel to show the movie status. I would highly recommend this player.
Pros: Realistic color
Cons: small remote bad design, no led front panel
I would recommend this to a friend!
