The editors didn't like

Not a lot of 3D Blu-ray discs available to fully enjoy the player's main function (which is not Samsung's fault)
Not a lot of 3D Bluray discs available to fully enjoy the player's main function (which is not Samsung's fault)
Expensive compared to non-3D Blu-ray players
Graphical user interface is sometimes slow
Occasional visual problems with 3D video
3D is terrifyingly overrated. Can't fix 3D problems through menu option

3D Blu-ray compatibility; excellent Blu-ray image quality; Netflix, Vudu, YouTube and Pandora media streaming, plus the expandable Samsung Apps platform; built-in Wi-Fi; very fast operational speed; 7.1 analog outputs; 1GB onboard storage
3D price premium is high, buttons on top of the player are inconvenient, last year's Samsung Blu-ray players had reliability issues
The Samsung BD-C6900 has excellent Blu-ray performance and is loaded with features, but you pay a lot for the 3D functionality.
Abstract: With a height of less than two inches, Samsung’s svelte BD-C6900 is a well-featured Blu-ray player, and is the company’s first to provide 3D Blu-ray disc playback. Among other features (of which there are many), the player provides relatively quick ...
No-compromise delivery of true 3D content, Integrated 802.11n Wi-Fi (no antenna!) and 1GB of embedded memory for BD-Live, Extremely fast disc startup, Possibly Samsung's friendliest CE user interface to date
No glasses included (though you can get 2 pairs with purchase of TV and player), One of the audibly noisier players I've tried, The quality of traditional 2D content could be better
Samsung has made good on their promise to deliver a true Hollywood 3D experience in the home theater, bringing with this breakthrough a host of refinements to an all-around respectable player. Those eager to be the first on their block with Blu-ray 3D...
The BDC6900 supports 3D playback, when mated with other 3Dcapable components, The BDC6900 supports 1080p/24 playback of Bluray discs, The player has internal decoding and bitstream output of highresolution audio sources, and it has multichannel analog audio outputs for use with older A/V receivers, It supports BDLive Web content and can play pictureinpicture bonus content, You can wirelessl
The BDC6900 uses HDMI 1.3, not 1.4. HDMI 1.3 will support 3D playback, but it only supports transmission of a 1080i signal for each eye. HDMI v1.4 can support 1080p for each eye. [UPDATE 4/29/10: This is incorrect. A Samsung product manager confirms that the BDC6900 does have an HDMI 1.4 output.], This player lacks an advanced control port like RS232.
Obviously, 3D capability is the BD-C6900's marquee feature and will ultimately dictate whether or not you purchase this player. Sure, it's loaded with other worthwhile Blu-ray features--like multichannel outputs, built-in WiFi, DLNA media streaming, an...
Internet@TV and Samsung Apps are Samsung’s new proprietary content portal for home entertainment systems. Not much details are available now as to how it will exactly work with other devices like TVs, laptops and smartphones. According to Samsung, the ...
Abstract: I subscribe to the theory that any disc player worth owning should have the demeanour of a battleship built by a Scottish shipyard. Rigidity foreshadows integrity, and tells me that a manufacturer takes the player as seriously as I take my media. So Sa...
Supports Bluray 3D discs, Analogue audio up to 7.1, Unusual design and low energy consumptopn, Media player: supports lots of video formats and NTFS
Colours aren't accurate!, Oldfashioned remote without backlighting, Poor upscaling of SD sources, No room for adjusting settings like colours or noise reduction
The Samsung BD-C6900 has lots of great features: it's compatible with Blu-ray 3D discs, has a great design and boasts an excellent media player. Unfortunately, it also has two big weaknesses: upscaling of SD sources is too rough and colours aren't repr...
The BD-C6900 is a mightily impressive piece of kit for its price tag. It loads up discs rapidly, delivers a beautifully clean, vibrant image from both 2D and 3D Blu-ray discs and features 7.1 analogue surround sound output, allowing watchers of 3D films to also experience lossless surround sound rather than having to downgrade to Dolby Digital or DTS. There’s also a formidable array of multimedia
The player can exhibit the odd bit of crosstalk during 3D playback, causing objects to ghost – but this is more an issue with the 3D TV it’s hooked up to, and we can’t really count it as a weakness for the BD-C6900.
A great 3D and 2D Blu-ray player and a master of media to boot. And it’s all packed into a slimline case.Best offers for the Samsung BD-C6900 Blu-ray playerAmazon UK £219.97 Amazon Marketplace £249.95 Superfi Online £319.95 Marks and Spencer £349.00 Sa...

Speedy disc-load speed; excellent picture quality; good Internet TV functions; impressive media-playback options; attractive design
Networking process isn't always straightforward
As Blu-ray players go, the Samsung BD-C6900 is pretty amazing. It's got all the usual features, like BD-Live and lovely lossless audio, but it also packs in Internet TV streaming and 3D capability. It costs significantly more than a normal Blu-ray pla...
Even without its 3D capabilities, the BD-C6900 would be one of the best Blu-ray players on the market. It boasts a phenomenal range of features, the most impressive of which are comprehensive multimedia support and wireless networking, while its 2D pictur...
