Three reasons to upgrade
The number one reason to upgrade to the Samsung BD-D5500 has to be 3D. After high definition became standard, the video industry turned their attention to other ways of making video even more engaging. Now, some Blu-ray players, along with a number of television models, have the ability to display 3D content right in your living room. The BD-D5500 will not only play back 3D Blu-ray titles, it will even upconvert 2D Blu-ray discs to 3D. Second, this Blu-ray disc player is Wi-Fi ready and sports Samsung's Smart TV. Movies and music aren't limited to how many discs you can keep in your house. Online web sites like Netflix, Blockbuster, Vudu, and Pandora stream content right to your entertainment system if you've got a way to connect to the internet. The BD-D5500 is not only Wi-Fi ready, it also has Samsung's Smart TV, which lets you search content on your TV or on your favorite online sites and access new Samsung apps. Third, you get true high definition video and audio from the BD-D5500. Watching a movie isn't just about the highest definition video available. It's also about full, rich audio, and with Dolby Digital TrueHD processing and 7.1-channel audio output, you'll get the full measure of both. Besides these three key reasons, the BD-D5500 is a great investment in your home theater for a reasonable price. You can still play your standard DVDs along with a number of other video formats, so none of your other video content is left out of the fun. This machine will open doors to your entertainment future.

We received the BR player within 3 business days of placing the order online with Vanns. It was easy to set up and use. The player has a touch screen which seems to work well enough. One pleasant surprise is the remote from our Samsung LED TV works for the player as well, so no need for additional remote or programming.

Works great as both a BD and DVD player as well as a network media player. Recognizes multiple formats on network storage. It would be even better if it could read FLV clips from media servers. Seems to boot rapidly and mount disks in a matter of seconds. Needed multiple updates to get to current software level but it was painless using the network utility. I didnt need thr WIFI connectivity and I get full HD speed with no studder using powerline adapters.

I received this blu ray player along with my new Samsung TV. Ive used it for both 3D and 2D movies. They both look great and the DVD player is easy to use. I like watching 3D movies on this blu ray and my TV better than I like 3D in the movies. I like that it has the internet apps, but would like it to have built in WiFi. Thankfully I have the TV, which does have Wifi built in so I dont need it on this blu ray player. Vanns had a great package with the TV Samsung PN59D8000, Blu Ray, 3D glasses and movies. You cant even come close to the prices that Vanns had on the bundle anywhere else.

OK, so who needs another DVD player? I didn't but it came FREE with my new TV so why not? Good decision. The D5500 loads faster and I love the direct connect to the Internet. The performance is noticably better than my 3 year old player. I had to get used to some of the features but it worked like magic right out of the box and was faster than my last Blu-ray which I graciously gave to my kids...... BW
