I have had my Samsung BD-P1500 1080p Blu-ray player for 2 weeks. I've never owned a Blu-Ray player before. It looks good in my cabinet, it's quieter than my roommate Blu-Ray player and of course it's got amazing picture and sound. The USB port and the Ethernet port to work, but I do not have any firmware or code Updates still down.

The only real operational noise you hear is a track-seeking, which you can hear from the couch when it quietly. Not a bigmuch for me. I have the occasional flickering in the middle of the screen in some parts of notes usually black screens (such as credits). It always happens in the same framework, but it is a problem with the discs rather than the player could be.
