This is a striking player though with its ToC accent. I do agree that the side location of the slot load is silly I(I guess they expect people to mount below the TV?) and the remote looks cheap (all the more reason for a universal...).]]>Jul 16th 2009 2:08PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/

It's "just as soon stick with"… c'mon, did you read that and it made sense to you?]]>Jul 16th 2009 5:49PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/

Biggest con:

seriously do we need lights to be ON on the damned thing when it's OFF? Nothing irritates me more than having devices that think we want to see their glorious luminescence when they are not even being used.

Biggest pro:

seems to have brought bluray almost to the same level as the crappiest dvd player of the past... examples of samsung flaws that are finally fixed include pausing movies for more than 5 minutes turned them off and required chapter seeking to get back (seriously? anybody here who is married knows that women rarely take under 5 minutes to refresh their drink and pee mid-movie).

I'm disappointed with samsung overall... my mkv's that i've ripped look just as good, start immediately via my mediacenter and don't try to play the part of "ambient lighting" when i don't use them.

Samsung offers only 90 days on labor. The company wanted to charge me $85 for labor and shipping both ways. I wrote to the President of Samsung North America, Tim Baxter, and he ignored me.

I went to Samsung forums and found out that many people were having reliability issues with many Samsung blu-ray players.

Bottom line: Samsung releases products long before they're ready for production. They treat customers with contempt.

Buy Oppo instead--much better quality and they take the time to get the products right. I have one now and am very satisfied.]]>Jul 17th 2009 9:03AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/
I have neither read nor heard anything in regards to the new Samsung chip that directly influences DVD, import and Netflicks Upscaling like I did when they had the HQV. They just gloss over it now and expect you to be dazzled too much by the "beauty" of the 4600 and the "shapeliness" of the 3600. Both dogs and that does not mean: Digital.Onscreen.Graphics. Samsung may be kicking butt in TV's, but really blew it in Blu-Ray players.

Also thank God the line of TV's I'm buying, bought and am looking at have Grey ToC. The red is whorish and cheap looking. What are they thinking? This is another example of East design not taking West tastes into consideration. But then the West's gullibility, cameras in cellphones (Thank you, Korea), surmounts taste.]]>Jul 17th 2009 12:26AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/Jul 18th 2009 3:48PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/]]>Jul 17th 2009 2:28AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/Jul 17th 2009 12:41AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/http://www.abt.com/product/40692/Samsung-BDP4600.html]]>Jul 17th 2009 1:09PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/Jul 18th 2009 1:51PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/16/samsung-bd-p4600-review/i will match on my samsung 32" lcd hdtv
