Introducing the BD-P1400

Samsung BD-P1400

The Samsung’s BD-P1400 is one hell of a great centerpiece to your home cinema environment.

You can always count on Samsung to create a home-cinema experience a seamless and amazing experience for the viewer. This is due in the main part to the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI™) along with the included Consumer Electronic Control (CEC), which means that a simple click of one remote control can access any digital device found in your Samsung home entertainment system.

Also, when it comes to displaying HD video content, HDMI is the way to go for any HDTV.

The BD-P1400 is Samsung's time to issue a Blu-ray player with all the features missing from its debut deck, this time however, it all comes with a much lower price.

Compared to many earlier Samsung Blu-ray players, the design has been massively improved, the glossy all-over black finish is a joy to have in the home, along with a sloping fascia and subtle blue lighting, in addition to the silver strip along the bottom of the device that's seen in many of Samsung's products these days.

Samsung is one of the many manufacturers that we have price comparison for in the category of Blu-ray Players.
