Samsung BD-JM63 3D Blu-Ray Player, Black (Renewed)

Comment

OK, I rarely write reviews. This player spec and Samsung in general is great. However, I went for certified refurbished and trusted that to get one quickly on May 2nd. It arrived as promised, and I hoked it up to the new 4K TV. It links to Samsung TV fine, has the network, menus and smart features, just as expected (and are on our other two BlueRay players). Unfortunately, it will not read a BlueRay Disk. After several attempts to play a blue ray movie on it, I switched to the DVD disk, and it worked fine. Later I tried the BR disk again, and it finally loaded - and worked for the five minutes i checked it. I thought it maybe had smudged surface i had finally got clean. I then left on an extended trip. Now, on July 2nd, back at home, I wanted to watch a movie. No joy. I have gone thru five different BlueRay Disks, it tries to load, gives me the proper screen on the TV, and finally ejects the disk saying invalid media and says to clean the disk or it is the wrong format. The disks are all amazon from Disney. They all play on the other Samsung players. It does do a great job with DVDs. I recommend you do not buy anything refurbished. In my case, I saved only a few dollars, have a nice DVD player, and I am past my 30 day return window. I will have to find the documentation and see what to do about the 90 day warranty, and how much it will cost me to get a working BlueRay player out of my $80+ transaction.

I haven’t tried all the features, but functions well and does what it’s supposed to do. Good picture and upscales well. No drama here. Nice device. The only things that drives me crazy are the manual controls on top of the machine. The markings are slightly raised, and virtually impossible to see. Flashlight and your memory is all you have! (Of course the remote, but that’s for sitting.)

Worked for a few months, but now keeps failing. Im hoping the company steps up and supports the product. But I have to say that it this point, I regret the purchase

I think the movies look great, but interface is tough with some DVDs... Not sure its the DVD or the player, but we get a message ”function not available because of disc restrictions” ... Cant just hit play... Have to go to scene selection... Also, when we hit stop it doesnt ”remember” where it was on all dvds... Overall a great player for $50... Add for refurbished - its working great like brand new... So glad I saved the cash

Excellent product. Much faster than my 8 year old Samsung Blu-ray. Came without a scratch. Works flawlessly. Wi-Fi is quick and the Samsung HUB is a great feature. Integrates perfectly with my Samsung SUHD 4K television. Great price too.

I wanted a DVD player that not only had a USB port, but played the mp4s and other video files I had. I had a cheaper brand TV with a USB that didnt play the videos, so this was key. I also didnt want to spend a lot on a new DVD player. This Samsung "renewed" Blu-ray did the trick. It has played all of my DVDs, store bought, my ripped & copied DVDs, and most importantly, the USB plays all the files off of my flash drive. It remembers where the movie left off even if I had removed the flash drive, so nice bonus feature. The large button on the top for eject, play, & all that is kind of hokey and very sensitive. The remote works well enough so I primarily use that. It came with an HDMI cable and was packaged securely. I was prepared to be disappointed in a refurbished product, but this one looks and acts like new. Id buy Amazon renewed products again.

This is my third player and I think my last for a while. This machine works very well, quick to start and open the disc tray. The only complaint I have is the remote control. The subtitle button was omitted as oppose to Samsung cheaper version which had it.

Same problems others have noted. I just got it today and it didnt read the first blu-ray I put in. I opened and shut the tray and it played. I tried another disc and it just kicked it out and said it couldnt read it at all. The wireless would not stay connected either. No problems with the disc on my other machine. They didnt even seal the box it came in. I was surprised it made it at all. Boxed up and returning.
