Samsung DVD-HD850: Compare

By Guy Cocker, CNET.co.uk on 24/10/2005

More Samsung reviews , RRP: AU$299.00

The good:

  • Slinky design
  • High-end features
  • Advanced connectivity
  • Wide video and audio format support

The bad:

  • No DVI output

The bottomline:

The DVD-HD850 has been a hot consumer product since launch, offering high-end features at a low price. With the only competition coming from high-end manufacturers like Denon, the Samsung has the mainstream to itself. If you have a flat-screen TV, the true value of this product is more than the asking price
