Experience the blu-ray difference with the SAMSUNG BD-P1500. You’ll get incredibly detailed images with brilliant color in full high definition 1080p resolution. Amazing picture quality isn’t the only benefit. This blu-ray disc player comes with SAMSUNG’s Anynet+ technology which lets you control all your SAMSUNG AV devices from just one remote. The BD-P1500 lets you have it all - watch your favorite DVDs and blu-ray discs or listen to CDs with the highest-quality audio.

Blu-ray Full HD Playback
Digital imaging is made up of pixels. The more pixels in a picture, the clearer it is. With Blu-ray full HD (and 24 frames-per-second) playback, you get every single pixel out of a film possible. Experience vivid, crystal-clear visuals that are more natural, more realistic and simply stunning. You can drop in an old DVD and watch the picture get upconverted to near HD quality. Even your CDs will sound great, and you can also play MP3 and JPG files.

BD-Live ready
Get more out of a Blu-ray Disc than what’s on it. BD-Live 2.0 lets studios future-proof their Blu-ray titles, so they can add content to BD-Live Ready discs even after they have been shipped. Simply connect your Blu-ray player to the Internet to download images, subtitles and more. Text-chat with friends during a movie, or play against others in online trivia games to unlock exclusive video content and earn discounts on other products. BD-Live Ready players can be upgraded to BD-Live 2.0 via a firmware update.

Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC)
Get rid of the herd of remotes roaming across your coffee table, hiding in your couch cushions and loitering on your armrest. One remote does it all with Anynet+. It delivers one-touch control for all your HDMI-connected compatible devices such as your Samsung TV, AV receiver, and home theater, and leaves you plenty of room to put your feet up.

2.0ch analog audio out
Know what sounds great when it comes to your Blu-ray Disc player? Having audio output options. For picture-perfect audio there’s the HDMI output. If you prefer analog audio, the player comes with a stereo RCA output for two channels of analog audio.

HDMI 1.3
Experience billions of colors, high definition audio and improved frame rates even at full 1080p resolution. HDMI 1.3 is a video cable format that delivers it all from your Samsung Blu-ray player without any loss of quality. Since you only need one HDMI cable, there’s no ugly mess of tangled-up wires. So your set-up is as clean-looking as the picture.

Firmware Upgrades
Your new Samsung Blu-ray Disc player won’t be obsolete the moment you bring it home from the store. It’s equipped with an Ethernet connection so you can download the latest firmware upgrade and add new features. If your player needs more local storage to take advantage of these features, simply plug in a memory stick with at least 1GB of memory into the USB port.

Nice Choice!

"The Samsung BD-P1500 is a great choice when purchasing a Blu-Ray player! You really do get a great product for the price you pay. I was gonna buy a Playstation 3 as my Blu-Ray for the longest time, but I'm super picky when it comes to electronics and since I have a Samsung LCD, this player compliments it perfectly. This Blu-Ray also has an Ethernet port and USB for firmware upgrades, which is one of the main rea..." Read Full Review »

Does the job...

"Let me preface this review by saying that this is my first Blu-ray player, so I didn't know exactly what to expect. The picture is fantastic, of course That makes it worth it, but there are a few things that annoy me. First, the remote is sluggish. It takes a couple or more pushes of a button to get it to do anything. Most regular DVD players will pick up where a DVD left off even if you turn the player o..." Read Full Review »

"I was amazed by the easy set-up and that when registering it with Samsung I got an extended warranty. It logs what Samsung equipment you own there and makes it easy to check for updates then for the product, if there are recalls, and easy to follow instructions on how to update the firmware.
