I think I prefer the more conventional looking BD-P3600 - any idea when it's being released?

Nearly a year after the 'industry' or sorry should that be the 'consumer', killed of HD-DVD we are still only now seeing BluRay players released that meet the finalised BluRay specifications !!

Any word on whether the red version will be coming to UK? Would look spot on with my A656 TV

@thats why I always preferred HD DVD still glad I haven't bought into any format yet. BTW there is CH DVD still to watch out for since that is backed by the Chinese govt. so once that gets going (later this year) who knows.

@ Andrew. I think I have an idea how that might go. Since Blu-Ray is now the considered standard in the rest of the world it's rather late for something else to come to the party, especially now a lot of people have already bought into Blu-Ray.

Besides, since when has anything supported solely by the Chinese government ever become mainstream in the rest of the world? They don't even have manufacturer support. (I suspect this comment would make TR outlawed and/or censored in China, so publish at your peril!)

Also FYI it's now formally known as CBHD, for some reason.

@smc8788 warner bros are officially supporting CH DVD (CBHD is its first original name from 2007) as from feb 09 and samsung are going to be producing dual blu ray CH DVD decks from 2010, potentially worlwide as CH DVD is so much cheaper. The problem with blu ray at the moment is the still crazy high royalty fees manufactures have to pay. For CH DVD the royalty fees and next to non exsistent.

Beautiful. Want one - even before I started reading the review, when I saw that awesome scanner lid-like photo.

But I can see why it's a 9/10. We all know the optimal load time for Spider-Man 3 is

"ERROR. BAD DISC."

I'm not normally a Samsung fan and won't be buying one of these.

However, this a sterling effort to break the boxy disc spinners we've had so far and at a sensible price - so "Bravo Samsung" !!

Just a quick correction to the review, I have just bought one of these and it does have youtube access on it.

With the BD-P4600, Samsung has created the most distinctive-looking Blu-ray player to date, with a gorgeous wall-mountable design that will please those who like their players to look as good as the pictures they provide. There's much to admire on the inside too, such as WiFi support and built-in memory, which makes it easier than ever to experience Blu-ray's interactive extras, while the swift disc loading times and wide-ranging format support are added bonuses (although video-on-demand would have been the icing on the cake). And although its picture quality isn't quite up there with the best, it's good enough to make the Samsung seem like money well spent - but it might be worth waiting to see what else LG and Panasonic have up their sleeves before making your decision.

Overall

9/10
