Yes—Samsung has made standalone DVD players, and several of its Blu-ray players also play DVDs. Whether you can buy a new Samsung unit today depends on your country and current stock; the available evidence does not establish a worldwide end-of-production date.
Has Samsung made DVD players?
Yes. Samsung’s UK support archive includes the DVD-SH875M, a standalone DVD player. That legacy support page confirms Samsung made DVD equipment, but it does not indicate that the model is currently sold. Samsung UK’s DVD-SH875M support page

Samsung also made Blu-ray players with DVD playback. These can be an option for someone who wants to keep watching DVDs, provided the specific model supports the discs and connects to the television.

Availability depends on the market, model and seller. Samsung UK’s BD-H6500 product page labels that specific Blu-ray/DVD player “No longer available.” That status applies to the UK listing for that model; it does not prove that Samsung announced a global discontinuation or establish when production ended.

A Samsung Members community user wrote in February 2024 that Samsung no longer sold Blu-ray/DVD players. This is a community member’s report, not a corporate announcement, so it should not be treated as a definitive statement about availability in every country. Samsung Members community discussion
Which Samsung models are documented to play DVDs?
Samsung’s product records provide examples of Blu-ray players that also support DVD playback. The records establish those models’ capabilities, not their present availability or compatibility with every disc.

What to check before buying a replacement
Do not rely on a listing that says only “Blu-ray player.” Verify the exact model and its compatibility with your discs and television before purchasing.

- Region: Confirm the player’s DVD region compatibility matches your discs. The cited Samsung specifications do not establish compatibility with every region-coded disc.
- Television connection: Check the player’s output and your TV’s available inputs, including whether both support HDMI if that is the connection you plan to use.
- Condition and returns: For used or refurbished hardware, inspect the condition, seller reliability and return terms; older models may not be readily available new.
- Support and remote: Check whether support materials or a replacement remote are available for the exact model. A remote should not be assumed compatible based on brand alone.
How to identify a Samsung player you already own
Look at the label on the back of the unit for its model and serial numbers. Samsung’s support guidance identifies the rear label as the place to find them. Use the model number to check the manual, supported disc formats and any replacement-part information. Samsung support: locating model and serial numbers
