Review on πŸ“€ Sony BDP-S1100 Blu-ray Disc Player (2013 Model): Top-notch home entertainment experience by Tyler Parker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great Budget Blu-ray Player

I bought this Blu-ray player because of its price, Revain's instant video playback capability and its component audio jack which allowed me to enjoy it connect my Yamaha soundbar to the last available input. I didn't really explore the other features of this player, but I've since found that this Sony is a good choice for me for several other reasons: 1. It loads discs very quickly, much faster than any DVD player I have . have ever used.-or used.2. Great remote control included. Initially, I liked the remote because it just feels good, with intuitively placed buttons that take no getting used to. I really appreciated the Sony remote after sitting at home with friends who have Samsung DVD players - I honestly hated Samsung remotes and never really got used to them. I have a friend who bought the Wi-Fi version of this Blu-ray player and it came with the same Sony remote as mine.3. This player's Revain Instant Video application is very easy to use. This provides a better user experience than my Verizon FiOS on-demand video, mainly because it fast forwards and rewinds more precisely and the UI is more attractive. It's very small and light. That's probably why it doesn't have its own display, but I really don't need a fourth device with a lit clock under my TV. I've had a love-hate relationship with Sony over the years, but they made me realize there was nothing wrong with this product.
