 Great picture quality Jan 06, 2009
We have been pleasantly surprised by the quaility and ease of use of this blu-ray player. We actually recieve this free from a promotion when we bought an LCD TV and had read some reviews that were not very favorable but it was free so what did we care? Well, the blu-ray has been excellent. It has played all of our DVDs we have tried as well as the blu-ray discs. We are very pleased by the product and would recomment.

Samsung BD-1500 Blu-ray Jan 06, 2009
This was a special offer when buying my Samsung A750 through Amazon and came free with my television. The quality of this item, as with my television, is excellent. This is a great player. Thanks Amazon!

 Affordable Blu-Ray that will soon be outdated Jan 06, 2009
As my first experience with Blu-Ray, it's hard to gauge how this player ranks with picture and sound quality. However I think it's important to rate this player independently of the Blu-Ray format, so I'll try my best.
The first thing that struck me is that this player is exceptionally slow. With research, I've come to find that Blu-Ray players in general are having problems getting "up to speed". Regardless, operating this player can be a serious game of "how much can you wait". Even something as simple as ejecting the tray from standby can be a solid 10 second delay as the player lazily wakes up. Skipping chapters becomes a chore, and switching discs turns into a lesson in tedium. I suppose this creates the atmosphere of watching Blu-Ray discs as an Event, and nothing less.
In terms of features, the BD-P1500 gives you a modicum of bells and whistles. There's a 24frames per second movie mode, and the ability to adjust your sound space. There is a USB port for viewing other media like pictures and videos, and an ethernet port to connect to the Internet. Sadly, this is only to upgrade the firmware, and does not support BD-Live functionality, making this player already somewhat obsolete. There is also no Picture in Picture or Multiple Angles features supported by the player.
If you're looking for a value player that gets you in the 1080p game and you don't want to concern yourself for any flashy features (that 60% of the time aren't worth the bother), then you'll find an adequate piece of equipment here that focuses strictly on offering an excellent picture quality, and not much else.

 A piece of junk and ZERO customer service Jan 05, 2009
This product was defective from the moment I got it. Frequent audio dropouts during playback with any disc. I sent it in for repair and they sent it back exactly as broken as it ever was. Now they will only ask me to send it in AGAIN and are completely rude about it to boot. There is a reason this is discounted over the Sonys. Samsung knows this player is defective and just wants to unload them. DO NOT BUY unless you just want to flush 200+$ and a chunk of your life down the toilet.
