Plays all videos, including Blue Ray very well. It also has an Ethernet connection which I used to connect it directly to my modem/router. I can stream NETFLIX and You Tube this way with a strong connection that never freezes. Great product for a great price! It's all high def and the picture is great.

The image looks great on this player. I like that it has Netflix and other apps.
Issues: the player do not have a light indicator when it is on. When I clicked on the eject, the disc doesn’t come out right away and the player doesn’t even make a sound to indicate it peforming to eject. The first few times I used it, I pushed an eject button a few timescbecause I thought it didn’t work. But I realize I just have to wait about 10 seconds before you could hear it’s ejecting.

I was skeptical buying a refurbished product. However, I do not regret it one bit. The bluray is amazing and basically turns our plain tv to a smart tv. I have access to you tube, Netflix, Hulu and so much more. The picture is amazing.
It does not come with hdmi cables, so you need to purchase that.

It is smaller than most I have seen, and does what it says. At the price, it is hard to turn down. Small drawback, there is a hesitation of about 3 seconds more than sticks or TV apps, this is between selection of app and start. Not bad, just could be quicker. Overall, worth the buy.

I bought this for the form factor to fit in a small space and have smart features on behalf of the tv. Wireless , amazon and selection of apps work well. Also has an rj45 jack for wired hookup. Best price in this class. It was refurbished and had to exchange at store (WiFi and network did not work) but customer service was very helpful in rectifying. I has bought two of these and one was fine oob . Looks like different quality control across refurbishers

SO THIS IS REFURBISHED DVD PLAYER. SO YOU USUALLY HAVE TO GET IT SHIPPED TO YOU RATHER THAN PICKING IT UP AT A STORE. THE FIRST ONE I WAS SHIPPED, THE DVD PLAYER HAD A PROBLEM WITH SCREEN FREEZING. I SHIPPED IT BACK AND A WEEK LATER I GOT ANOTHER ONE. IT HAS BEEN 6 MONTHS NOW AND EVERYTHING FROM THE DVD PLAYER TO THE WI-FI TO THE BUILT IN APPS WORK GREAT. SO IF YOU DON'T MIND ROLLING THE DICE WITH JUST A 30 DAY WARRANTY, THEN IT IS A GOOD BUY FOR ONLY $40.

I wasn't sure a refurbished blue ray player would be a good purchase but I couldn't argue with the price. The machine is wonderful it played dvd's that didn't work in my old player. So yes, it was a good purchase,

Shows crystal clear picture and no problems streaming YouTube videos and Netflix movies. Only downside is that it will shutdown after a short period of inactivity and there is no indicator light to let you know. Great price for what is offered.

Have had no issues & use daily since received. Was disappointed that there were No batteries & No instruction manual included as it was stated these items were included. Also the previous owners account info for Netflix were still loaded & usable in the device...deleted & put my info in,,,just a bit strange the device hadn't been completely restored to factory settings!!!

I've purchased two of these and both have performed very well right out of the box. Both needed online updates which was easy.
Still Samsung doesn't get it ----------------- they continually leave power light "on" indicators off their products and it is a continual complaint from users about the lack of it on the product. Still it is a reliable product.

I received my refurbished smart DVD player and found the previous owners Net Flix account fully intact and functional. Promptly deleted their account and added my own. The jury is still out as to it being refurbished because I notice the unit quits working and freezes. You have to pull the plug to get it to reset. Other than that it works well for the most part!

Can't believe this. Just for a good blue ray player is at least $65. And this one does not disappoint! The kids love the apps (mostly YouTube) and it easy to use. And at $30, how can you lose? Don't over think this.

I had no trouble setting it up. It is very easy to use and allows the TV to be a "smart TV'. The preload with Net Flix and Pandora allows me to stream video and content. The player works wonderfully.

Plays all DVDs regardless of region as well as some digital media through the USB port. Can access Netflix and YouTube through the apps. Just wish I could download more apps, but don't know how.

What can I say? Second one I've purchased. It goes on line lightning quick, no issues, fast processor. Unreal! The trick is to make SURE you update the firmware which can take several tries if you try to do it Wi-Fi via the player. 2nd one I got didn't connect to my router. After 20 min I unplugged it, plugged it back in, it connected, I updated the software and was done. So I did update via Wi-Fi after several tries but way easier if you just done load it to a sub stick and do it that way. Once done , any issues are gone and smooth sailing! Best $35 I've ever spent and have gotten 2 of these . 1 for my rv, another for my f2f and she loves it!
