    Ok but make sure your TV supports product without 500.00 brick from Samsung called evolution kit that's more expensive than player itself! Absolutely ridiculous bought Samsung curved tv last year 4K 3D whole bitt not comparable with this product without 100.00 hdmi and 500.00 evolution kit!

    It works great but the first 4K ultra HD video we watched did not appear any more clear than the blue ray disc player we had. I did confirm with the sales rep that we had the correct hdmi cable and our tv is designed for 4K so I hope the next movies we get will be noticibly better.

    I read a lot of reviews about this product before purchasing and they were right on point. This player does all that is advertised and more. If you have a UHD or SUHD TV, this player is definitely worth the investment.

    It really does enhance movies into almost 4k quality (even cartoons). I am not saying older movies will look like 4k quality but it does make it look better. He loves it and watches the movies specifically on here.

    Bought this used for $130 couldn't resist especially when it's practically half off. Anyways 4K playback looks great on my Samsung 4K 8500 series 65" still playing around with it but seems to playback flawlessly.

    After purchasing the KS8000, a high-end HDMI cable, and this true 4k Blu ray player i was expecting to be blown away by the quality of videos. Sadly, this Blu ray player did not do anything great. The picture looked exactly as regular 1080p Blu ray discs do. Actually, regular TV or apps displayed better upscaling pictures versus 4k Discs in this player. I dont get it. Needless to say, i returned this since spending alot of money for a player that didnt really excite my sesnes failed to awe me. I will wait for prices to drop significantly for true 4k players or may go with another upscaling wannabe 4k player.

    When I purchased this, it was the only HDR 4k player out there. It works well although it would be nice if it allowed for better skip and FFW controls. Kinda wish I would have waited for the new Xbox one S but ohwell.

    UHD Blu ray is ASTOUNDING. The color depth is AMAZING!. If you're purchasing a 4k tv, make sure to purchase this model. Only real drawback is it's a little slow on load times. That could be standard for 4k though, don't have a second player, so no way to tell for sure.

    I like the small size and easy set up of this unit. It works well and seems to handle all the codex. We got this unit on sale at half off so the pricing was really good. The downside of this unit is an unattractive interface and poor navigation. Overall I would recommend.
