          This unit arrived well packed, undamaged and delived on the date promised. Setup was very easy with HDMI cable to my SONY HTCT150 3.1 Sound Bar. The picure is excellent and the compatability with multiple formats is a plus. I don't use the internet connection for streaming however, I'm glad the connection is available in case I need to update the bios at some point in time. Great value for the money and has everything I was looking for in a base Blue-ray player.

                This blu ray player was purchased as a gift. I ordered it online on a Sun night and it was delivered the Wed following! My daughter hooked it up with no trouble and is now enjoying it. A Samsung was purchased because she had a Samsung HDTV and I wanted to keep it the same. Great experience with B&H and I'll be sure to order again from their company.

STEVE at your office was a great help in providing great advise about the Blu-ray made by Samsung. The manual needs to have larger print. Thanks and please tell STEVE thank you.

                      Comments about Samsung BD-D5100 Blu-ray Disc Player:

                      Pros:
                      -Good value! Solid DVD\BluRay\streaming player for a good price.
                      -DVD upconversion is very smooth. No distortion, pixelation or lagging.
                      -HDMI connection reduces the number of cables dangling out of your TV.
                      -Sleek looks.
                      -Connected to home network without issues.

                      Cons:
                      -Turns on/off very slowly. (>20sec)
                      -Clumsy rewind/ffwd function. You're lucky to land within 30sec of the scene you want. It's bad with DVDs and abysmal with streaming.
                      -The RC looks like it belongs to a VCR you bought at a drug store. It functions OK, but looks and feels very cheap.
                      -No resume play. You eject a DVD during play (say, to clean it) and it's back to title 1 \ chapter 1.
                      -Limited / lame streaming features. I could use Pandora or Hulu instead of Youtube!
                      -Iffy support. Netflix device activation failed out of the box. Netflix and Samsung support blamed each other, of course. Mysteriously, after 10 days, it worked.
                      -Firmware update still doesn't work. (Error: product model not recognized)
