I originally wrote my review Amazon didnt like it nothing vulgar or obscene , just the truth. As stated this is an overpriced MODIFIED player. This was not in the description. 30 days have passed and now getting messages to update, well read in the reviews if you update you lose the multi regional. I called Samsung and they said, "we dont make multi regional players" So Amazon what are you going to do about this, since 30 days have passed I cannot return this . $172.00 for a $62.00 player, thats just wrong. As noted Buyer Beware, not worth it buy the Sony real regional player

What I received was a BD H5100, a different model that IS NOT region free. There was a cheap sticker on the back that proclaimed its regional fluidity. No such luck. Total rip off.

Addendum - Take this ad off Amazon until the manufacturer honestly notes that it will not play all U.S. coded Blu-Ray Disks. It is a piece of garbage and he remote was make by someone without any training in design.

Works great when it wants to. I have purchased this three times in one month and made two returns. Return number one: The first player was grinding and whirling loudly when starting up the player. Purchased another one. Return number two: Amazon’s description of player states Region Free, it was only Region A movies. Purchased another one. Waiting to see what happens next with the third one. Absolutely ridiculous!

Wish I had bought something else. Like some of the other reviewers, I have had nothing but problems with this unit. It got replaced with a $50 kmart special and has been quickly outshined. Player glitches several times a day and shuts itself off, will not recognize my standard blurays and does the same to my other region dvds. In short, this unit is a pile of junk and I am a dissatisfied customer.

I would give 0 stars if I could. This is a hacked Samsung player that they are selling. Had I known I could hack myself for less time and money I would never have bought this. Customer service is questionable. They are nice until you ask them to provide you with a player that actually works or for a refund. Bought this 12/24/2016 Rarely used and then on 7/2/16 it locked up; I would turn it on but could not open and the player was no longer being recognized by my Samsung TV. I tested the HDMI cable to ensure it wasnt the cable and it worked with another player. So I sent it back to Bombay Electronics and got it returned to me around the end of July/Beginning of August. On 8/14/16 I was experiencing the same issue so I had to send it back to fix (mind you for each return I paid for shipping and insurance). After 2+weeks of not hearing from them, I reached out to and I was asked to provide the return address (which I thought would have been part of the RMA), and was told on 9/2/16 the fixed player was shipped. After getting the fixed player about a week later, I used it for a second time on 9/26/16 and this time, player would not open but my TV at least recognized the device but was stuck Loading. I again emailed Bombay Electronics and asked them for a refund considering this is the 3rd time it is not working and I MAYBE got to use the player for 6 mos. Their reply implied that this was user issue as they have never encountered this many issues with this item with any other customer. SMH. They offered a different model but my question to them was, what is the policy if THAT player doesnt work. And that I would just like a refund. At this point, the nice customer service person, became even less nice and didnt respond. Today, after 7 days of getting no reply I pinged him again and was told I would get an end of Sept prorated rated of $65. $65 wont even pay for the money I spent sending the player back multiple times. At this point, I am sure they will ask me to spend my $ to return so I can get the refund and basically I have lost $ through this whole ordeal. SO NOT WORTH IT.

I bought this for my sons multiregion toy story DVDs & monsters Inc DVDs & when I decided to watch my blue ray discs on it, it would not play them. So I got lied to or got a bad one or something. This is way too expensive to buy & not work correctly. I would not recommend to anyone.
