Beautiful picture on this 4K player!
Worth every penny! I picked this up while it was on sale. This Samsung 4K player functions nicely with my 65” Samsung 4K TV. 4K movies are brilliant! I highly recommend this product. The only down side to this player is that it requires a hard wired Ethernet connection for updates. I wish it had the WiFi option built in, however, the next model up was not worth the cost for me.

Bang for the buck winner
This is a fine player. No foibles I can discover. I will note that if one does not go to the settings menu and then go into the audio (sound) part of that menu the player will not output Atmos or DTS: audio. The factory default is PCM and that will not do the trick. The best way to have the player deal with this issue is to select "Auto" from the list of options. That way, the disc will pass through the best audio to any AV receiver that can deal with it and the receiver will select the best playback option for the best sound. The video on the player is all I could ask for. With one disc, one time, however, here was a bright line along the bottom edge of the 4K frame at the bottom of the screen, but that went away a bit into the movie. (A review I read of the more expensive M9500 model mentioned a similar artifact, so it may be a characteristic of all of the 7500-9500 Samsung players.) I have watched several discs since and there were no issues. The remote takes some getting used to, but one you achieve that perficiency it works just fine. Unlike the 9500 and 8500 models this one does not have wi-fi, so you have to connect it to the internet (router) via an ethernet cable. Hooking it to the internet allows for performance upgrades to be received. It's a good player. The attached photo shows it sitting on top of my equipment cabinet.

Good quality
I purchased this player, because I purchased a new Samsung 4k smart tv. The price was good, only because i purchased on Black Friday for both items. Find it to be a bit large wish it was smaller in size. Like the ability to use 4k blue ray DVD and blue ray and DVD. Very easy set up. Remote a little different very slim and small wish the player was as well. Does say that if you are not hooking it up to a Samsung tv you need to do a few extra steps on set up. Make sure you pick up a 4k HDMI cable. Not included. So far having it for a week it seems good.

Delivering True 4K / UHD
Great player when purchased when it is on sale / promotion! It enables to view 4K / UHD content in an uncompressed format, not streamed and compressed online. Content such as Blue Planet II, which is the reason I got the player, look amazing! Nature, landscape, and scenic items are best served in UHD / 4K, while darker location filmed footage / movies can be left to streaming services. Looking forward to purchasing Planet Earth 2 in 4K / UHD. Note: This player is not WiFi but features an Ethernet port. For me, it is not an issue as my Smart TV and Chromecast take care of my Smart feature needs. However, if you need WiFi then other models - which are more expensive - would be an option to consider. There is a firmware upgrade right out of the box, so you may want to connect it online anyway when doing the setup then move / disconnect the unit. The remote is not back-lite but this is one of the first entry models in Smasung's line of 4K/UHD Players, which is probably why there is no WiFi either. Only in the initial stages, the loading of the disk is loud but the noise goes away when the movie starts and is never an issue thought-out the movie. Overall, it is a great player when I must watch 4K / UHD disks.
