After my last BR player stopped working for an unknown reason, I wanted a replacement which I felt would last longer. One of my highest priorities was to get a player with a quiet operating mechanism, as many budget players are distractingly loud.So far the player has performed very well. The disc reading during general playback is low (a little louder on startup) so your attention is not diverted from what you are watching. Initial startup of the device can be a bit slow, not a major concern for me but may annoy some people. Picture and sound quality is very good and depending on the disc manufacturer you can easily return to the scene you were previously watching in a movie,

I bought this to replace a previous player which was physically too large. This player has a very small footprint, 23cm wide, 19.5 deep and just less than 4cm high. The remote is a fairly standard Sony Blu Ray remote, it features the usual buttons for playing discs but also a Netflix button and a user programmable favourite button which is good as I use Amazon Prime regularly. The interface is composed of tiles featuring BBC iPlayer & news, Demand 5, YouTube and a few others; sadly no ITV hub. You have the option of connecting through a LAN or wirelessly and the connections are smooth with no buffering. Playing from a DLNA NAS is a breeze

This is an excellent product for the price, it plays all of the DVDs that I have tried on it, including ones that I have burned myself. I can't say anything about blue ray discs as I don't have any. The apps that come with it seem to work well as well. It is a pity that no HDMI lead comes with it, they are cheap enough to buy these days, luckily I had a spare one so I did not need to get one, but it would be annoying for anyone who was expecting one with the player and couldn't use the player when they got it.

This Blu-ray player is a great compact player just what we needed. It has brilliant picture quality and is very easy to use just plug it in, link it to the home wi-fi network and away you go. Really helpful feature having wi-fi built in no need for extra cables to the player and allows you to access Netflix, Iplayer and other on demand apps from the touch of a button. Very pleased with the product other great buy of a Sony product. Highly recommend to others looking for a quality Blu-ray player.

Bought it as a Xmas present for Mum, but I set it up for her. Very easy to set up. WiFi connected easily with no problems. Player setup was easy. Picture is great, sounds good (only being played through flatscreen speakers). Played everything I threw at it; DVD, Blu-ray, CD, MP3, MP4, MKV and AVI. Quiet in operation. Android remote control app works beautifully as well. I'm thinking of getting one myself to replace an old Toshiba player. No HDMI cable included, but I already knew that.

I usually like Sony products & have no experience of Blu-ray players, so when I inadvertently bought a Blu-Ray disc, I realised I needed a player. The product I chose here looked to be somewhere in the middle of the range & affordable. Getting it home, I plugged it into my ageing 2000 Samsung 46" plasma monitor (choose not to have a TV) through the HDMI socket. Everything worked great. The picture resolution is so good, I can see the grain of the film; I've never seen that before!e.

This is the Sony Product I have bought and was very surprised how much a quality product it is and when I plugged it in how user setup friendly it was. Within a few minutes I had it up and running and even connected to the WIFI. This unit has lots of features and the picture quality and quietness is very good. Only downside I have found so far is... It was not supplied with an HDMI cable. Yes I would recommend if you are looking for a Blu Ray with lots of features for a budget price..

for a few years now, if I ever wanted to watch a Blu-Ray on the family television, it meant disconnecting and carting down one of my games consoles, but no more, thanks to this small, lightweight and powerful player.it has a nice small size, with only room on the front for a limited I/O (power switch, eject, and a USB socket for portable media) and the drive itself. The drive opens very smoothly and shuts the same, with a firm tray for the discs. A great purchase all around.

We finally splashed-out on a Smart Blu-ray DVD-player.. I compared various makes and models and narrowed it down to a Sony or LG and, the Sony won on features. Argos won for the price! - I ordered on-line, 'click and collect' at my local Argos store. Quick and cheerful staff at the pay desk and collection point. - Back home, the Sony was installed and running in about 10 minutes! - Lots of features, easy to navigate. Great experience. Now, great enjoyment.

I have been using this device for a couple of weeks now. It works well with blu ray discs, quiet, quick and easy to use. I also use the WiFi function with BBC iPlayer and YouTube. One thing I am disappointed about is the screen mirroring function, the HD video on my HD smartphone screen comes out in lower definition on the TV via screen mirroring service. I will have to wait to see if the device will work as an external optical drive for my PC.

This Blu Ray player was given a Five star rating in What HiFi Magazine. Easy to set up, it was working within minutes playing high quality music through my surround sound system. Together with a speaker upgrade this player has breathed new life into my CD collection, many of which are thirty years old. It plays both Blu Rays and DVDs with good image quality and the WiFi facility is very useful for watching Netfix and BBC I Player.

Reasonably priced, feature filled Bluray player. SMART features are good (if you do not have a SMART TV) but build quality of box is disappointing. Does not feel solid unlike previous Sony players. Picture sharp but sound appears to be quiter (like a lot of attached units) so needs cranking up on TV.On the plus side it is small so easily stored and fairly intuitive to use. It does the job and good for the price.

Bought this for our holiday so we could watch recorded films on a USB memory stick and for Netflix and what I had understood to be available: Amazon. The USB managed most movie extensions but not the reasonably common 265 mkv codec, so that was a no show when we came to play those files. Netflix worked fine but Amazon was not included in the apps. I was disappointed that it didn't include these features.

Excellent at this price and superior in my view to other more expensive models; build quality is excellent and start-up time quite acceptable given it plays Blu-rays with their added complications. Built in Wi-Fi means that set up and use is extremely easy and uncomplicated; picture quality and sound are both excellent and the upscaling feature really does enhance ordinary DVDs. Highly recommended.

I bought this to replace a DVD player which had stopped working. It was easy to set up (you need to buy HDMI cable but batteries for remote included). Love the fact that I can watch/listen to YouTube etc through it, controlled by my phone.This does not have built in speakers so uses the TV’s. Mine were not up to much -I’d been used to surround sound. So bought a soundbar and now all is good!
