There are a lot of 3D Blu Ray Players available - many have internet access - BUT most limit internet access to specific services such as Netflix and Hulu (and subscriptions can get expensive!). This player allows users to surf the internet, and bookmark favorite sites. I really enjoy the movies available on the Internet Archive and Top Documentary Films sites, so this Blu Ray player allows users to watch internet movies on their big screen TV - instead of on a computer monitor. Not all movie formats are supported however. If you want to surf you will need a wireless keyboard. Set up was easy, although the player wanted to update all the installed movie sites (like Hulu), which slows the process down. While the specifications state a High Speed HDMI cable is required, I used my "old" HDMI cable with no problems at all. I've read several reviews of this player on several selling sites - and they seem to be either 100% positive or 100% negative - apparently there were some quality issues and some players didn't work at all, I have had no problems. There are some other features on this player that I really haven't explored yet - you can link other internet-connected devices, and can store movies on the "cloud". The biggest down side of 3D is the limited number of movies available. But really most movies don't lend themselves to 3D - it is especially good for Sci-Fi movies, and animated films. Based on my experience (so far) I would recommend this player.Read full review

The only thing that works well is the Blu-ray player on this device other than that the smart portion of this device is poorly designed. Even though it is Wi-Fi you can tell it's very dated and you can't even watch YouTube through the smart aspect of the player. I was very disappointed I'm glad I did not purchase it for any other reason than watching Blu-rays!

Love this BD-E5900 Samsung. Easily performed factory setting restore. Reprogrammed in 20 minutes. Connected to WIFI router 70 feet away. Works like a charm!

After our old Blu-Ray player quit working, we bought the BD-E5900 which has been great. It works well and does more than we will ever use. I really like the fact that it has actual push buttons instead of the touch buttons that don't want to work unless you keep tapping them, which pushes the player back with each tap!! It is definitely a good value for the price!! Though we have only been using this unit for a couple of months, there's not much too dislike. I guess Samsung could have put a eject button on the remote, however that's not really a problem for us!! Would definitely recommend this unit!!!
With the few test I have run on this Blu-Ray Player the main functions I am concerned with work well and the Netflix interface goes back to the good old days of not having to select a profile which was a pleasant surprise and has become my favorite aspect of this Blu-Ray Player.
