Samsung BD-J5500 review

Well-rounded Blu-ray player, but it won't quite top your shortlist

Sharp, clean picture ; Motion well controlled ; Good with 3D ; Decent remote ; Interesting design

Rivals have more picture subtlety ; A little noisy

Not ahead of the curve performance-wise, but a decent disc spinner

Great little dvd player

I bought this to replace one which stopped working. This is a great player at a very good price. Ok so it doesn't have a light to show it's switched on but that's not a big deal. Quick and easy set up. Picture perfect on normal dvd, blu ray and 3D.

Fantastic purchase

The Blu-ray quality of this Samsung is brilliant, it's as good as the way more expensive model it replaced. Guided by the sales assistant who had all the patience and time in the world to assist me I'm delighted with it.
