  • Abstract:  It seems that the time for hi-def player has definitely arrived. Discs can be easily found for buying at any Wal-mart and you can easily rent the latest releases on any Blockbuster or Hollywood Video. And the greatest news is that this month Blu-Ray pl...

  • Supports Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD High Resolution, powers up quickly
  • Poor audio reproduction, poor colour quality, trouble coping with complex interactive disc features The Final Word At $769, the Samsung BD-P1400 remains among the least expensive Blu-ray disc players available. But other models can offer better value.

  • Audio dropout when subtitle is enabled, Bulky for a single-format player, Stain magnet
  • The Samsung BD-P1400 has a lot to offer for the price in HD audio-video performance and is highly recommended — especially if you dont care for interactive features. ...

  • Taking into consideration its feature set and very good all round performance, the BD-P1400 currently represents the best value Blu-ray available. It cant quite match the Blu-ray and DVD performance of high end machines, but at less than half the pric...

  • Very affordable. Decent spec. Good colour reproduction. Great with movement ...
  • Not the very latest Blu-ray spec. Feels a bit lightweight. Lacks absolute detail in shadows. Struggles in 24fps mode...
  • A bona fide Blu-ray bargain – but Sony and Panasonics machines still trump it for performance-per-pound value ...

  • Excellente qualité d’image sur du Blu-ray, désentrelacement et upscaling HD honorables, prix abordables, gestion efficace des flux audio HD.
  • Pas de prise en charge des bonus BD-Java PIP ni de la fonction BD-Live, lenteur de chargement des Blu-ray, ouverture multimédia limitée, aucune possibilité de calibrage vidéo.
  • Sans être parfait, le BD-P1400 est un bon moyen de découvrir le Blu-ray sans se ruiner, tout en pérennisant sa dvdthèque. Le problème, c’est qu’au même prix ou presque, la Playstation 3 de Sony se m...
