The editors didn't like

  • Bottom Line
  • The Samsung UBD-K8500 is quite quick and feature-rich for one of the first consumer 4K Blu-ray players available
  • But it will cost you
  • Severe judder on panning and motion shots with some non-Samsung TVs
  • Limited A/V outputs (one HDMI
  • One HDMI audio
  • Optical digital audio)
  • Couldn't display GIF or TIFF image files
  • Unless you have an HDR-capable TV
  • The improvement in video quality over standard Blu-ray and streaming is minimal. Only a handful of 4K titles are available today
  • And some showed minor video quality issues themselves. The remote control can sometimes be
  • No display
  • Confusing remote
  • Needs a compatible TV
  • No auto picture adjustments for HDR
  • Non-HDR
  • And 1080p discs with current UHDTVs
  • Small
  • Frustrating remote
  • Requires high-end TV
  • No HDMI auto-detection on many TVs
  • Many movies not in 4K end-to-end
  • Slow
  • Old-school discs
  • Expensive
  • Not a great value if you don't have an HDR 4K TV
  • Remote control has some problems with its design

  • Samsungs afspiller er hurtig og nem at betjene, og giver fremragende billedkvalitet med både Ultra HD og traditionel Blu-ray
  • Lidt spinkel byggekvalitet og lidt for simpel fjernbetjening sammenlignet med Panasonics flagskib
  • Samsung UBD-K8500 scorer højt, både hvad angår brugervenlighed og billedkvalitet: Uanset om du sætter en UHD-film eller en almindelig Blu-ray-disk i afspilleren, indlæses den hurtigt og ser knivskarp ud.Enkelte brugere vil måske savne lidt tungere...

  • znakomita, wysoka jakość obrazu, przeskalowywanie DVD do 4K, dobra współpraca z telewizorami różnych marek, świetna obsługa multimediów (w tym HDR), dobra obsługa NAS-a, niezłe funkcje Smart, szybkie i ciche działanie
  • pilot niezbyt ergonomiczny, brak wyświetlacza, cena
  • Pierwszy odtwarzacz Blu-ray 4K UHD na naszym rynku zapewnia znakomite wrażenia wizualne. Ponadto UBD-K8500 jest urządzeniem, które pomimo iż pierwszej generacji, działa zaskakująco szybko i stabilnie. Choć wygląd jest nieco kontrowersyjny, a pod względem...
