  • It doesn't have as many ports as its Panasonic rival, but the UBD-K8500 is still a highly capable Ultra HD Blu-ray player...

  • Sleek and stylish curved design, Excellent picture quality that's sharp and clear both on UHD Bluray discs and when upscaling Bluray discs, Userfriendly remote control and interface, Good choice of apps including Netflix, all of the major UK catchup servi
  • Expensive price tag, High Dynamic Range (HDR) technology only works with compatible TVs, Only one HDMI port that does video and audio
  • The Samsung UBD K8500 is a great example of a UHD Blu-ray player. Simple and straightforward to set-up, it offers an impressive picture and audio quality and is a must-have if you've got a 4K TV. We found the interface and remote control were user-friendl...

  • The K8500 does a fine job setting the tone for 4K UHD Blu-ray. 2160p image quality is high, and its media functionality is good. Having the 4K OTT streaming services in the box also makes perfect sense. The deck, which launched in the UK at an inflated...

  • Great 4K image quality, Curved design looks slick, Works great with Samsung setup
  • Doesn't feel premium, DMP-UB900 better all-round

  • While the K8500 doesn't eke out quite as much of Ultra HD Blu-ray's glorious quality as its only current rival, it's the sort of good-value option the new UHD disc format needs...

  • Abstract:  The Chosen One will bring light to shadow and change our perception of reality, generally ushering in an age of clarity and enlightenment. So says the legend anyway.But it's not really a legend. Ultra HD Blu-ray is a real thing. It genuinely can bring y...

  • Best video quality available today, 4K, HDR, and wide color gamut, Zippy operation, Reasonable price for a first-gen device
  • Frustrating remote control, Streaming apps aren't HDR compatible
  • To get the best of what the K8500 has to offer, you need to have a lot of pieces in place. You'll want the best 4K Ultra HD discs, and you'll need a next-gen 4K TV with solid HDR processing, and either exceptionally deep blacks (OLED!) or an LED TV with...

  • Fantastic picture quality, additional HDMI output, 4K streaming apps
  • Price will be a barrier to some entering this ecosystem, limited initial title availability
  • If you were in any doubt about the relevance of optical media then rest assured: Ultra HD Blu-ray is stunning, offering a premium experience that surpasses other current options. For those seeking that next-gen visual experience, the Samsung UBD-K8...

  • Speedy loading, Sharp pictures, Most affordable UHD Blu-ray player on the market,
  • Sound and picture need refinement, No display, Fiddly remote,
  • Overall, the Samsung UBD-K8500 is something of a disappointment. We have been very excited about 4K Blu-rays, but we don't feel that this player gets the most out of our discs.We can't imagine a scenario where we'd recommend it over the Panasonic DMP-UB90...

  • Impressive 4K HDR image quality, 4K Netflix and Amazon onboard, Two HDMI outputs for AV receiver compatibility
  • Journeyman build quality and noisy, Not a great sounding music player, Coin battery remote control
  • Samsung's stripped back 4K Blu-ray player is just what your Ultra HD TV needs, but early adopters are expected to pay a high price for better pixels...
