Samsung has beat Bang and Olufsen to the punch
With this world’s slimmest
Wall-mountable Blu-ray player. Admittedly
B&O probably wouldn’t have it given it that weird ‘Touch of Colour’
But this is still one of the most striking...

Doesn’t handle motion brilliantly. Mediocre sound. Choosy about connecting to other devices via HDMI
Not the last word in motion tracking
Mediocre sound
Choosy about handshaking with other devices via HDMI
Average DVD scaling
Limited connectivity
No internet features (unlike its competition)
Upscaling DVDs to 1080p
No image settings like noise reduction available
Minimal connectivity with no 7.1 channel analogue output
Noise common for Bluray and DVDs
No access to YouTube or Picasa
It can crash in PC streaming mode or when connected to a...
Poor DVD upscaling.
Such an anorexic case leaves little room for ports
So you’ll have to do without component output or multiple audio sockets. The P4600 doesn’t have a YouTube or Netflix mode like other mid-range Blu-ray appearing on the market but we don&rsquo...
Abstract: Samsungs stylish BD-P4600 is the first Blu-ray player weve seen that doesnt have the usual boxy design. Its designed to be wall-mounted and comes with a pair of interlocking metal plates. One screws to the wall and the other fits to the back of ...
With the BD-P4600, Samsung has created the most distinctive-looking Blu-ray player to date, with a gorgeous wall-mountable design that will please those who like their players to look as good as the pictures they provide.There's much to admire on the insi...

Attractive design; fast load times; easy to use; good picture and sound quality
Relatively expensive; lack of analogue audio outputs
Ultimately, the Samsung BD-P4600 may be sunk by its price. Sony and Panasonic both have excellent models on the market that cost less and have a more traditional form factor. But that's not to say the BD-P4600 isn't a great player, because it is. We l...
The unique design of the Samsung BD-P4600 Blu-ray player may not match all home theater setups, but the wall-mounting capability and Wi-Fi support make this one of the more flexible Blu-ray players out there. The performance and feature set also make t...
Abstract: Solid performance on both DVD and Blu-ray Discs , Netflix and Pandora streaming capability , Unique wall-mount design Back in 2006, Samsung was the first manufacturer to release a Blu-ray player to the masses. It contributed to the format’s less than...
If you are looking for a very compact and versatile Blu-Ray player that does not take ages to load discs, then consider the Samsung BD-P4600. It is very flexible as far as setting up your network connection (WiFi or Ethernet); however, the initial link...
Let's come right and say it, this is a great player, but not for the price. For anyone other than those who simply must mount everything on their wall, the BD-P3600 just makes more senses. Sure slot loading is cool, but not when it's on the side. The 3...
Highend, spacey design. Loaded with features, including ability to mount it on the wall. Loads Bluray discs exceptionally fast. Highquality playback
Complicated initial setup. Cramped underside portconnection compartment. Overpriced for what it delivers

Unique design; can be wall-mounted; excellent image quality on Blu-ray movies; Wi-Fi USB dongle included; Netflix and Pandora streaming; superfast operational speed and disc loading; Profile 2.0 compatible; onboard decoding for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD ...
Costs more than a PS3; unusual design won't fit all decors; compartment for connectivity is cramped; PC streaming setup is difficult.
Samsung's BD-P4600 Blu-ray player is packed with features and its unique design makes it wall-mountable, but most buyers will be better off with the step-down BD-P3600.
It's a crazy, unexpected piece of hardware, so thin and light that the press photos don't really do it justice. Still, since it basically does the same thing as Samsung's cheaper BD-P3600, and LG's new wired and wireless Blu-ray players, I...
