    The Samsung BD-P1600 won?t blow you away with innovation or offer anything above and beyond its competitors. What it does offer is exceptional image quality at a good price. As Blu-ray players come down in price it?s good to see that the cheaper models aren?t skimping on quality. Read more

    • Excellent Image Quality, Attractive design, Easy to Use, HD Audio Codecs, Profile 2.0
    • No Wifi included, Doesn't stream from a PC

    The Samsung BD-P1600 is a Blu-ray disc player that is fully Profile 2.0 compliant and supports Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding. A few annoying design quirks aside, it includes everything you’d want in a Blu-ray disc player. The front panel on the Samsung BD-P1600’s flips downs when the drive tray opens. While some people may find this design quirky and interesting, we erred on the side of being annoyed. Read more

    • Excellent image quality with both Blu-ray discs and DVDs, high-definition audio decoding, good operational speed
    • Build quality could be better, flip-down front is annoying

    There are nearly always compromises with budget kit: the BD-P1600 is no different but it remains a compelling option on a budget Read more

    Samsung's customer service in Australia is in my the worst customer service and tech support I have ever encountered anywhere. They never live, up to promises, call you back when promised, give accurate info. They didn't even know what 'BD Live' meant, some reps didn't even know what that they had Blu-Ray players. I've been given wrong information, misleading information. If you try to esclate it their head office people can't be contacted or will not return messages. Read more
