The BD-C6900 is a mightily impressive piece of kit for its price tag. It loads up discs rapidly
Delivers a beautifully clean

The editors didn't like
Some connection issues
You'll need to use analogue 7.1 outputs into a legacy HDMI v1.3 receiver
3D pictures lack the crispness and solidity of the best
A touch of motion smear
Some offer greater sonic attack
Journeyman audio performance
Single HDMI
Lack of 3D Blu-ray titles
Can be beaten for sound and 2D by players costing a fair bit less
Colours aren't accurate!
Oldfashioned remote without backlighting
Poor upscaling of SD sources
No room for adjusting settings like colours or noise reduction
The player can exhibit the odd bit of crosstalk during 3D playback
Causing objects to ghost – but this is more an issue with the 3D TV it’s hooked up to
And we can’t really count it as a weakness for the BD-C6900.
Flawless 3D Playback, Intuitive Interface, 7.1 Analog Audio Connections, Build Quality, Aesthetics, Availability, Load Times,
Substandard Hardware Pack (composite cables for a 3D HD player?!), Expensive,
After an evening of 3D Blu-Ray viewing compliments of Samsung's BD-C6900, I can see how integrating 3D Blu-Ray into any consumer's home theater system could be considered a good thing. But the real thing to point out with the BD-C6900, is 3D is not w...
Paired with a 3D-enabled Samsung HDTV, the Samsung 3D Blu-ray Player BD-C6900 offers unrivaled and unparalleled quality in movies, Internet-streamed content, and more. Although this model may be a little pricey for some consumers, overall it is a good ...
With the smashing success of Avatar, Hollywood is convinced 3D will drive people to the theaters in droves. And with the boxoffice returns for Alice in Wonderland, How to Train Your Dragon, and Clash of the Titans, they are onto something. Will this suc...
The Samsung BD-C6900 Blu-ray disc player is full of useful features. We'd be inclined to use the video-on-demand features and internet access more than 3D Blu-ray playback at the moment, but 3D playback will make it attractive to anyone who is thinkin...

3D Blu-ray compatibility; excellent Blu-ray image quality; Netflix, Vudu, YouTube and Pandora media streaming, plus the expandable Samsung Apps platform; built-in Wi-Fi; very fast operational speed; 7.1 analog outputs; 1GB onboard storage
3D price premium is high, buttons on top of the player are inconvenient, last year's Samsung Blu-ray players had reliability issues
The Samsung BD-C6900 has excellent Blu-ray performance and is loaded with features, but you pay a lot for the 3D functionality.
Abstract: With a height of less than two inches, Samsung’s svelte BD-C6900 is a well-featured Blu-ray player, and is the company’s first to provide 3D Blu-ray disc playback. Among other features (of which there are many), the player provides relatively quick ...
No-compromise delivery of true 3D content, Integrated 802.11n Wi-Fi (no antenna!) and 1GB of embedded memory for BD-Live, Extremely fast disc startup, Possibly Samsung's friendliest CE user interface to date
No glasses included (though you can get 2 pairs with purchase of TV and player), One of the audibly noisier players I've tried, The quality of traditional 2D content could be better
Samsung has made good on their promise to deliver a true Hollywood 3D experience in the home theater, bringing with this breakthrough a host of refinements to an all-around respectable player. Those eager to be the first on their block with Blu-ray 3D...
The BDC6900 supports 3D playback, when mated with other 3Dcapable components, The BDC6900 supports 1080p/24 playback of Bluray discs, The player has internal decoding and bitstream output of highresolution audio sources, and it has multichannel analog audio outputs for use with older A/V receivers, It supports BDLive Web content and can play pictureinpicture bonus content, You can wirelessl
The BDC6900 uses HDMI 1.3, not 1.4. HDMI 1.3 will support 3D playback, but it only supports transmission of a 1080i signal for each eye. HDMI v1.4 can support 1080p for each eye. [UPDATE 4/29/10: This is incorrect. A Samsung product manager confirms that the BDC6900 does have an HDMI 1.4 output.], This player lacks an advanced control port like RS232.
Obviously, 3D capability is the BD-C6900's marquee feature and will ultimately dictate whether or not you purchase this player. Sure, it's loaded with other worthwhile Blu-ray features--like multichannel outputs, built-in WiFi, DLNA media streaming, an...
Internet@TV and Samsung Apps are Samsung’s new proprietary content portal for home entertainment systems. Not much details are available now as to how it will exactly work with other devices like TVs, laptops and smartphones. According to Samsung, the ...
