The Blu-ray standard - Samsung BD-P1400

A Blu-ray player is a ‘must-have’ for every HDTV owner looking for the ultimate video and sound quality, and features you can’t find on DVD, downloads or video on demand. JANANI KRISHNASWAMYgives you the run down on some blu-ray products in the market


Can’t afford the price of a Sony player? Check out this Samsung model, promising excellent image quality and outstanding soundtrack support. This too has an Ethernet port for updating firmware. If you believe in minimalist aesthetics, this shou ld fit the bill, with its glossy black front and thin silver strip at the bottom. Playback controls are also easier than standard players as the menus glow in the dark.

Price: $259-$329
