Samsung BD-C6900 1080p 3D Blu-ray Disc Player W/ 5pc Hook Up Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this product this morning.
I plugged the Blu-Ray 3d player up (with an HDMI 1.4 cable I thankfully ordered separately, see below). When I plugged in the power, my Sony 810 Receiver Sony STR-DH810 7.1-channel A/V Receiver with 7 HD Inputs [3D Compatible] (I'll review that, too) sensed it, switched over, and there I was in the setup menu. A few clicks, everything was done, including the network settings, put in the 3d movie (Shrek), and away it went, and 3d looks great on my UN55C8000 Sammy 3d LCD TV. Samsung UN55C8000 55-Inch 1080p 240 Hz 3D LED HDTV No ghosting that I could see, just as good as the local cinema, maybe even better (except they have great popcorn).
I got the startup kit with 2 pair of 3D glasses on Amazon as well Samsung SSG-P2100S/ZA Shrek 3D Starter Kit, Black
I didn't have to do anything else, the TV auto-sensed the type of 3d signal, and it just went to work. Just like it's supposed to. I am very pleased so far, and if time shows me issues, I'll come back and update this review.
Now, for the negative in all of this:
The "kit" part of this comes with HDMI 1.3 cables. A total waste, you need 1.4 to do 3D. The kit did come with a nice bottle of screen cleaner and a soft cloth, so it wasn't a total waste, but the HDMI cables are the important part, and they're not usable for a 3D install. What were they thinking?
There's also a component cable, but I have no use for that, either.
It's now official. I will now always wait for the Blu-Ray version, no need to pay more for us to see it than it does for us to own it and enjoy it in the comfort of our own home.
So, for the Samsung Blu-Ray 3D, 5 stars, for the kit, 2 stars (generous, since the cleaning stuff is the only thing usable).

Samsung SSG-P2100S/ZA Shrek 3D Starter Kit - Black (Compatible with 2010 3D TVs) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First, the kit includes Shrek 1, 2 and 3; all of them remastered in 3D. Having watched Shrek 2 already I can tell you that they did an excellent job with both the 3D and the image quality in general.
The kit also includes a voucher for Shrek Forever After by mail. Sadly the wait time is quite long (8-12 weeks!).
There are two pairs of glasses inside (serves two people) and for the most part the glasses are ok. But here comes the but...
While watching the movie, I realized that the glasses would lose the 3D effect seemingly at random. Sometimes it would come back on its own, sometimes I had to power them on/off again. This seems to be part of a widely known issue with Samsung and their glasses.
Luckily, the fix seems to be quite easy. Simply attach a piece of black (electrical) tape to the small sensor on the glasses. Just make sure that you don't cover ALL of the sensor or that at least you poke a little hole on the tape. Once you do that, the glasses work beautifully.
To test them, simply start a 3D movie and watch away. Then look away from the screen and the glasses should "power off" automatically within 5-10 seconds. Then look back at the screen and you should get the 3D effect back. Additionally, you won't lose the 3D effect while watching 3D content.
I hope this helps others out there.
