Good player! Works with any format.

Excellent player! Works flawlessly with any format. It's tiny but the picture quality is great, as is the music (I use it with a projector and watch a lot of music DVDs). I recommend it to anyone who needs a great Blu-ray player.

Pros
  • Nice thing
Cons
  • Secret

Doesn't work with optical drives

I bought this to have a DVD drive when I was assembling my new computer. I've spent hours trying to figure out why I can't boot from the hard drive. I finally gave in and put my old internal drive in, even though I don't have a slot for it in my tower. The old drive worked without any problems. After installing Windows I tried the drive again, it read Blu-ray files but couldn't play discs, it didn't read DVD at all. I tried to find drivers for it and all google results showed forums of people…

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
  • 0

I hope it works later but it doesn't work. I have an HP Laptop running windows 10 and the computer recognizes it but it doesn't play anything I downloaded the recommended media player vlc and still nothing I have it so I can play my blu ray discs on my laptop as I have the blu -Ray player not included with the hostel but it's not plug and play but any help or suggestions are welcome if I can get it to work properly I can update it or I'll just return it we'll see. Fantastic customer service I…

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • I have no particular complaints about it, everything is fine

Very erratic detection of CDs in drive

There is only one problem with the device – it only detects the presence of a disc in the drive about 33% of the time. The rest of the time you have to eject the disc and try again or press the eject button 40 times for it to recognize the presence of the disc in the drive. Worse, the eject fails 90% of the time and you have to use a stylus to eject the disc. I'm trying to load 3000 CDs onto a large hard drive and I need 100% reliability. So far I've only been able to make about 10 discs…

Pros
  • Durable coating
Cons
  • Was damaged

Good product, works as described

Works perfectly. Ignore the 1-star reviews blaming this player for not being able to play DVDs or Blu-rays out of the box. This is a software issue that depends on your system and has nothing to do with this product. Nowhere in the description does it say it comes with software that can play Blu-ray or DVD movies. To do this, you need VLC Media Player and additional codecs, which you can easily find on Google. In general, these devices are a bit more expensive, but they seem to work well.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Tape

Has just stopped working

After owning and using the product for about 6 months it has stopped working. I do not know why. It wasn't damaged and appeared to be stuck in the middle of a Blu-ray rip. Also, if you're buying this, be aware that it's only a disc, so in case you don't already have a player or ripper installed on your computer. , you need to buy one. Edit: I bought a warranty and Revain won't give me a refund or send a replacement so I'm changing 2 stars to 1.

Pros
  • So far so good
Cons
  • Will be added later

Doesn't play Blu-ray movies

This device allows you to read data from a BD, but you can't play BD movies on your computer. As they say, it doesn't record to Blue Ray either, so I don't see why it's associated with Blu-ray in the first place. Otherwise it's a good CD and DVD player, but don't buy it because it supports Blu-ray because it doesn't.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

Best buy in a long time

quicker than I thought. I was very satisfied with the work and the quality of the product. Compared to other similar items, it surpassed them all in every way.

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Received protection
