Good Value

This Blu-Ray player, which was updated from an older one, works great. I only updated because I got a couple of errors of unable to read from discs which required updated software. This one is wireless and has already informed me of an available software update, and performed it quickly. It works great with Netflix, Crackle, Hulu, Amazon, Sony... All wirelessly. I have Verizon, and there is very little buffering. Maybe 30 seconds for a movie to load initially, and that's all!
I would recommend this to a friend!

So-So Player

As far as Blu-ray and DVDs it seems to work well, but i mostly wanted it for online content. About every 2 or 3 weeks it disconnects from Netflix sometimes even in the middle of a movie and it is not easy with the onscreen menu to log back in. Also every time we turn it on it takes a while to connect with WiFi. We also watch with another device which connects faster and works better.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Nice Unit

Small and nice looking unit. Easy to set up and works excellent. Very happy with the wireless feature, I couldn't run a Cat 6 line to the location and the wireless is flawless.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for your comment. We noticed you are experiencing some difficulties with the internet connection.
The Internet connection speed can vary for many reasons. Below are the most common causes:
*Network Sharing
*Wireless Connection Strength
*Router Type
*Connection to Your ISP
Depending on the file size of the video clip you are watching, it is possible that some video may pause and go into buffering mode when playing. This does not normally occur with short video clips, but long video clips may require additional buffering time. It is generally caused by a slow Internet connection speed.
NOTE: A connection speed of 2.5 Mbps or higher is recommended for streaming standard definition (SD) Internet video, and a connection speed of 10 Mbps or higher is recommended for streaming high definition (HD) Internet video.

When the machine works, it works well. I had to call and have your technicians do a reset of the machine because I was unable to use it with my Netflix account. The machine also takes too long to connect with my Wi-Fi (about 30 seconds) I also lose connectivity on occasion.

Amazing bang for your buck!

Features and speed keep improving on all BDP's and the cost keeps coming down; what's not to like? I mostly just use the basic features on this Sony player for watching DVD's and BDP's. It loads fast, the picture quality is fine, and the menus are straightforward, attractive, and easy to navigate. At this price point that's about all one might expect. But the Sony does it with such finesse. I also love the small footprint and streamlined case. It can fit almost anywhere.
Since I also have a Sony TV one remote manages both units. This helps with remote table clutter. The TV also auto selects the BDP whenever it's on; little things sometimes help a lot. I know the player can stream content, as well, but my Sony TV does all that with ease so there's no need for me to link at the moment except for firmware downloads or additional blu-ray content.
Overall, I think today's electronics provide incredibly advanced function but the Sony products have the edge on appearance, style, and integration. I'd recommend them to anyone especially if you're on a tight budget. Lots of bang for your buck with these Sony product lines!
