This replaced an LG BP530. The Sony BDPS3500 has a smaller remote and more apps available. It connects WiFi quicker and keeps the aspect ratio of the program material better. The Blu Ray player is just that... a real Blu Ray player. So far it's a perfect interface with the world of streaming entertainment. And almost forgot, you can play PS3 games on it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi GoodTech, Thank you for taking the time to tell us what pleases you with your Sony Blu-ray Player, we're glad that you are happy with it. Thank you for choosing Sony.
We have watched three movies from the DVD. All looked really good. The control is a little small but sufficient to do the job. I bought one for my sister and brother-in-law and they are enjoying it. It is very compact but works well.

Hi jxbrx, Good to know that you all love this Sony Blu-ray Player. Thank you for choosing Sony.
Superb image processing makes ordinary discs look like BluRay. Streaming is excellent. On screen functionality of menu features like subtitles is excellent. However, the remote controller has been reduced in size excessively, to a point where it is awkward to use because the buttons are so close together. Further, the home screen should be more flexible or easier to manipulate for those who want to customize it. In sum, this is a great playback machine with room for improvement.

Hi jeromey, We're really glad to hear that you're having a good time with your TV! Thank you for choosing Sony!
I'm very happy with this player. I've had it for just over a month. EZ to set-up and to navigate. I'm able to stream videos approximately 422 ft from sister's WiFi router (clear shot).

Hi jettsilag, good to know that you are happy with your purchase, we appreciate it. Thank you for choosing Sony.
I bought this Sony blu ray player to replace a broken Samsung blu ray player. In many ways, it is a superior product, except for ONE glaring firmware issue. Certain blu ray discs formatted at 1080i50 that my Samsung (and many other products) could convert to 60 and play, the Sony cannot. It simply won't play these blu ray discs and that is a shame. I wish Sony would correct this problem because then this would be a 5-star product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
