Ready to use Perfect

This unit worked straight away as advertised. My 8 year old loves the smaller second remote control. This player even works with CDs that both of my previous players had problems with. We watched several DVDs and it worked great. I like the ability to fast forward at a choice of different speeds. It's not as smooth as a VCR but much better than my old DVD player. Works great, sounds great, received in a gold box, great price. Samsung is a 6 sigma company, I hope my player will last many yearsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • So far so good

Generally good except for remote controls

Plays the widest range of formats, not like any other DVD player I've tested, but it seemed slower than average in downloading and during playback. The Screen Fit button is probably unique to this DVD player and very useful. I gave this product a four star rating because the remote controls were my only disappointment, often they respond with delays or no response at all from any distance. /Angle, a joystick-like button is also bad, I wonder if the home theater master remote will solve thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Trial for one year
Cons
  • Operating speed

Good price for features, halfway decent performance.

This DVD player has most of the features you will find in a $200+ player at a much lower price. However, it doesn't take long to figure out why this player is so affordable. Like other reviewers, I faced the problem of "handing over" this player. Audio CDs and MP3 CDs are handled well by this player. There is a problem with DVD movies as this player sometimes randomly skips scenes when watching a movie and entire chapters when browsing a movie slowly. As I said, this rarely happens, but it'sโ€ฆ

Pros
  • understandable even for old people
Cons
  • confusing

Not worth buying for DVD players and recorders

At first glance, this DVD player was a plus. It even had a Duel Laser pickup, which virtually eliminates that silly pause between layers on the Duel Layer DVD. However, I found the image and disc reproducibility unsatisfactory. I hooked it up via the component video outputs and sometimes I got a very noticeable blue line across the top of the screen and sometimes a red wavy afterglow from text that appeared during some movies. And the picture was a little jumpy - sometimes. Sometimes the player

Pros
  • Practical part
Cons
  • Expensive

Wonderful. on TV and video

I've had my DVD player for almost 2 years and I can safely say I must have received one of the non-factory defects. Mine has never given me any problems. Not once. It played DVDs with photos and audio and my DVD was perfect. There is no weird red line or blue streak as some say. Remote controls don't bother me either. To be honest, I think the remote control is pretty cool. I mean, I'm only 17 because I cry out loud. I don't need a big fancy thing to make me happy. Samsung has kept my familyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Annoyed

Excellent price, while it lasted

For a long time I thought the Samsung DVD-P421 would be a good choice to get the most out of my current and future hardware. It combined features and functionality with players that were much more expensive. It loaded DVDs fairly quickly, produced flawless video output, and produced great sound on my 29" RCA TV. The large remote control was a little tricky to use, especially in the dark. The small remote made up for that with easy-to-use glow-in-the-dark buttons for basic needs like startingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
