This is my second one of this model and I am perfectly happy with it. I had an older Sony that had tracking problems on standard DVD's. This unit seems to have resolve those issues and is a fantastic player. I now have one in my family room and media room. It is shocking to me to get this much performance for so little money.
Was looking for a Blu-Ray player and found this one for an excellent price. Easy to setup and great picture when play Blu-Ray DVD's. also, many other options for viewing movies. I use Netflix and takes a little while to connect to my network but once connected, everything is fine. Bottom line is very happy with it for the price I paid.
product is pretty small and sleek. only one not very bright light on during operation so its not distracting when on in a dark room. easy to navigate on product if you know sony products and if not still not bad. in my opinion the remote isn't easy to feel the buttons in the dark and impossible to see in the dark. it does not have a center pin screw on cable port, i think it would be nice if it did. i know it wouldn't be HD but id to be able to buy more to use on my other tvs.
I am over all pleased with the performance of the Sony DVD player. The picture is clear and bright. My Wi-Fi connects and works well and was able to move my Roku player to another TV set. The only thing I am disappointed in is that neither manual or online site give any support for pairing the DVD's remote with my TV. Therefor I have to use the TV's remote to control the volume and turning the TV off and on.
I would recommend this to a friend!
