Samsung BD-P4600 review

 

World's slimmest Blu ray player is a joy to use

Original styling ; Slim proportions ; Fast disc loading ; Good multimedia management

Average DVD scaling ; Limited connectivity ; No internet features (unlike its competition)

A good option for those who want to have something more than just a Blu-ray player

Samsung BD-P4600 review

 

Samsung's new entry-level Blu-ray player has the style and spec to impress, but connectivity issues let the side down

Unique looks ; simple to set up ; vibrant Blu-ray and DVD images

Not the last word in motion tracking ; mediocre sound ; choosy about handshaking with other devices via HDMI

A perfectly reasonable product comprehensively spoiled by connectivity issues

Samsung has made the first genuinely stylish Blu-ray player. Step inside to find out if its performance is as good as its looks…

A stylish and perfectly respectable Blu-ray player tarnished by connectivity issues

Samsung BD-P4600 Blu-Ray Player

 

Despite its slim build, the BD-P4600 is no slouch when it comes to performance. It has Wi-Fi connectivity via an optional USB dongle accessory, which allows you to connect the player to your home wireless network and then access BD-Live bonus content...

Samsung BD-P4600 Blu-ray player

 

The primary claim to fame for the BD-P4600 is that it's the first wall-mountable Blu-ray player. But that's far from its only achievement. For a start, its glossy black exterior, thin profile and lozenge-like form factor make for a gobsmacking...

Looks great, built-in BD Live memory, plays DivX HD, USB ports support wi-fi dongles

No multi-channel analog audio or component video, and image quality lags behind the very best

Samsung BD-P4600

 

Unusually, the BD-P4600 has two USB ports - one you can use to add memory for downloading BD-Live content (though it already has 1GB on board), the other you can use for a Wi-Fi dongle to give yourself wireless access to the internet. That aside, it's...

Distinctive look, wireless internet capability, excellent picture

Distinctive look with side-loading discs won't suit everyone

Samsung BD-P460

 

If you prefer your Blu-ray movies served up in style, then your interest should be piqued by the Samsung BD-P4600 – one of the most fetching Hi-Def players around… and the world's slimmest, fastest, wall-mountable Blu-ray player to boot.

Brilliantly original design. Wireless option. Incredibly fast loading

Poor DVD upscaling

The Samsung BD-P4600 is the slimmest Blu-ray player around,with a super-fast start-up time and a higly original design. Awesome.

A Profile 2.0 Blu-ray player with multi-format Blu-ray and DVD playback, upscaling, all audio formats up to Dolby True HD and DTS-HD Master Audio. One HDMI and optical audio output. Oh and it's wall-mountable. The good Samsung has beat Bang and Olufsen...

Eye-catching or eye-sore? This lifestyle player may not be your cup of tea but there’s no denying its scorching start-up time and tasty video quality. Samsung BD-P4600 is tagged with Samsung BD-P4600, Samsung and Blu-Ray player. Select a tag (Samsung...

Good points: Strong picture quality. Striking design. Fast loading time. Ethernet connection. Light and easily portable. Decent user interface. Eject button on remote. Drawbacks: Design won't suit every TV or, because of the shape, stacking systems....

Strong picture quality. Striking design. Fast loading time. Ethernet connection. Light and easily portable. Decent user interface. Eject button on remote

Design won't suit every TV or, because of the shape, stacking systems. Adaptor needed for wi-fi

[Editor's note: we tested a new version of this player with an updated software. The Netflix streaming worked perfectly. Because of this we upped the...

High-end, spacey design. Loaded with features, including ability to mount it on the wall. Loads Blu-ray discs exceptionally fast. High-quality playback

Complicated initial setup. Cramped underside port-connection compartment. Overpriced for what it delivers
