Not Profile 1.1
Some 24fps issues
Not the very latest Blu-ray spec. Feels a bit lightweight. Lacks absolute detail in shadows. Struggles in 24fps mode...
The BD-P1400 is a marked improvement on the BD-P1000 in terms of design, performance and features and is superior to the feature-light Sony BDP-S300. But the Samsung's Profile 1.0 specification will make it outdated very quickly, and for this reason we re...
Abstract: This is the third Samsung Blu-ray player that Ive evaluated. Samsung was the first on the block to release a Blu-ray player with the BD-P1000. This first model had a few hiccups in design, but ultimately after a few firmware updates, it provided dece...
It is said that practice makes perfect, which is clearly illustrated by the BD-P1400. Okay, so it’s not quite perfect—it does not conform to Full Profile, and the analog audio output leaves something to be desired. But it certainly bests its predecesso...

Excellent image quality on Blu-ray movies; outstanding soundtrack support with onboard decoding for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD High Resolution and bitstream output for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio; relatively low price compared to other standalone...
Only Blu-ray Profile 1.0 compliant, so it will not play some bonus features on some new discs in 2008; below-average performance with 1080p output at 24 frames per second; some annoying operational issues.
The Samsung BD-P1400 delivers a mostly capable Blu-ray player at a relatively affordable price, but its probably still better to hold off for newer models or a PlayStation3.
Abstract: It seems that the time for hi-def player has definitely arrived. Discs can be easily found for buying at any Wal-mart and you can easily rent the latest releases on any Blockbuster or Hollywood Video. And the greatest news is that this month Blu-Ray pl...
Supports Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD High Resolution, powers up quickly
Poor audio reproduction, poor colour quality, trouble coping with complex interactive disc features The Final Word At $769, the Samsung BD-P1400 remains among the least expensive Blu-ray disc players available. But other models can offer better value.

Relatively fast response, 1080p24 video output, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD bitstream audio output, 5.1-channel analog audio output, Stylish design.
Audio dropout when subtitle is enabled, Bulky for a single-format player, Stain magnet
The Samsung BD-P1400 has a lot to offer for the price in HD audio-video performance and is highly recommended — especially if you dont care for interactive features. ...

Abstract: It has been a long and winding road for Samsung when it comes to its past and current lineup of standalone HD players. The Korean company did beat the competition with its worlds first Blu-ray player, the BD-P1000. But in the process of rushing out th...
Excellente qualité d’image sur du Blu-ray, désentrelacement et upscaling HD honorables, prix abordables, gestion efficace des flux audio HD.
Pas de prise en charge des bonus BD-Java PIP ni de la fonction BD-Live, lenteur de chargement des Blu-ray, ouverture multimédia limitée, aucune possibilité de calibrage vidéo.
Sans être parfait, le BD-P1400 est un bon moyen de découvrir le Blu-ray sans se ruiner, tout en pérennisant sa dvdthèque. Le problème, c’est qu’au même prix ou presque, la Playstation 3 de Sony se m...
