"...It's equipped with the HQV REON video processor from Silicon Optix, which not only suggests excellent upconversion of standard definition discs, but also delivers. It sailed cleanly through my standard mix of 480i-to-1080p tests, both from Silicon Optix' own HQV Benchmark standard definition test DVD and regular DVDs like Gladiator and Star Trek: Insurrection. I have not seen better performance on these tests."
"It also properly de-interlaced 1080i material to 1080p, including recognition of 3/2 pulldown. 1080i isn't common on high definition discs, but you will find it on concert releases."
"The Samsung BD-UP5000 is in many ways a superb high definition disc player—with arguably the best picture quality I've yet seen from high definition discs."
