Groundbreaking Blu-Ray Players

This Samsung Blu-Ray Player Offers Spectacular 4K Media

— April 12, 2016 — Tech
The UBD-K8500 is a brand new Samsung Blu-ray player that offers truly exceptional and mind-boggling 4K functionality, which is four times as powerful as regular HD Blu-ray. This translates to 3,820 x 2,160 pixels versus the 1,920 x 1,080 available for regular Blue-ray.

It's important to note that this Samsung blu-ray player is perhaps best suited for the very best high-end TVs, since lesser TVs simply don't have the hardware capability to justify ultra-clear 4K footage. However, if you already happen to be in possession of an expensive, HDR-capable TV, this Samsung blu-ray player will make for an excellent purchase that will enable you to enjoy the best video quality ever seen in the consumer electronics market.

Ten years after launching the world's first Blu-ray player, Samsung has shown with the release of the UBD-K8500 that it continues to be the market leader in Blu-ray products.
