Samsung DVD-1080P8 1080p Upconverting DVD Player

This is a short & sweet review... Buy this DVD player now! No explanation needed, well maybe just a couple. DivX playback is great (no skipping) & upconversion quality is awesome.

DVD player works great. Plugged it into HDTV and it enhanced the DVD and delivered a great picture.
At only 3/4 of an inch or so in depth, fits great with the components on my shelf.
Would recommend it to anyone.

works good, has hdmi-not too many other bells and whistles,but plays movies , looks clear

I have two of this Samsung DVD players--one attached to my 32-in LCD widescreen HD TV (1360 by 768 resolution) and the other to my 24-in LCD widescreen PC monitor (1920 by 1200 resolution). Each display is connected via HDMI cable to its corresponding DVD player. Playing high-quality standard DVDs, the picture and sound are stunning on both displays.

So to begin I won't act like I understand the differences entirely between things like HDTV, SDTV, 1080p, 1080i, 720p and upconverting. All I can give you is my personal opinion based on my use of the DVD player.

I received it as a package deal with my new Samsung LCD TV and began using it right away. It's very slim and doesn't take up a lot of space. I like that it's black not silver and very sleek looking. The first time I watched a DVD on it I wasn't sure that it really was making the quality any better, but after watching the DVD on another TV I realized that there was an improvement.

Overall I like the DVD player, Samsung is one of the best brands in my opinion and if it helps improve the viewing quality of your DVD's then great!
