Jeremy, Carlisle, Cumbria , “Enjoys good films.”

+ Small & neat, takes up very little space.

- Not having an on/off switch, you have to switch off at plug socket.
But probably not much power drain in standby?

Kieran, Ely

+ Very cute, delightfully hi-tech, and with HDMI output it produces an excellent picture. Audio out is good too.

- Ah, this is annoying. Every time you do anything with it, it beeps. Aaaagh.

Dave, Salford

+ Size, sleak design

- Temperamental - Sometimes it won't display the picture a dvd is put in (get a flashing blue screen) so you have to switch it off and on again. Sometimes if you fast forward a dvd when you resume watching the sound has gone and it needs re-setting.

Phill, Coventry

+ Very aesthetically pleasing, easy to use. neat. very good for a bedroom.

- Wouldn't personally use this as a main living room player.Picture quality should be a bit bitter for the price and the fact I'm running through HDMI, but really that's a small point.

Anonymous verified purchaser , “Mid 20's female.”

+ Excellent for the price. Small size fits almost anywhere. Simple but stylish looks. Sound and image look good on HD TV.

- Only bad point so far is when listening to audio Cd you have to skip track by track rather than choosing track number by putting in numbers on remote. Ok for short CD's but not audio books when you have to skip to say track 49. As not many people us it for this it is a minor point that should not put anyone off the player.
Need to buy HDMI lead seperately.

- None, other than the sound quality is difficult to quantify as it depends on your TV's reproduction.

- Remote is a little slow. Sometimes takes a while for Samsung Anynet to get started, but once it does is fine.

Laurie, Carlisle

+ Installed very easily and quickly. Easy to use, very quiet in use, sleek and stylish, quite tactile really. Picture and sound compare favourably with a considerably more expensive units I already have. Recommended to anyone and everyone.

- For some inexplicable reason in suddenly goes into 'No-mode'. Pink light (not red or green) appears and the unit responds to nothing except being disconnected from power supply and reconnected again. Happened only twice but baffling and nothing in the product Trouble Shooting guide makes any reference to this slightly annoying 'No-mode' condition.
