Reviews of the Samsung BD-P1600

CNET Review
The Good: Excellent image quality on Blu-ray movies; Netflix and Pandora streaming; speedy load times and operational speed; Profile 2.0 compliant; onboard decoding for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio; Wi-Fi compatible, with purchase of USB dongle.
The Bad: Design marred by an annoying flip-down panel; Wi-Fi dongle is very expensive.
The Bottom Line: The Samsung BD-P1600 has a great mix of features and performance for a standalone Blu-ray player, with only its annoying design holding it back.
