Sony BlueRay. Multifunction player

When I received the Blu-Ray for the first time, it worked perfectly. After a few months it started making a slight knock. I put the DVD/Blu-Ray/CD cleaner in the player and it played best again. PLEASE ensure that this player is cleaned regularly! After a while, the player makes noise even after cleaning. You may have to "eject" the disc a few times to actually play the Blu-ray as the screen may say "NO Disc". Otherwise, the remaining functions of the player are on top! Had a lot of success…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • There were defects

Please update firmware first

This unit had front panel controls which is what I needed. It's also compact, which gamers didn't have 5 years ago, which is nice. I needed a device that could play Blu-ray discs and didn't require wifi or other extras and this seemed like the right device for me. However, there was a big problem when using the device for the first time: when playing Blu-ray discs (not yet tested with DVD), it stuttered a lot. The motion seemed to stop about twice a second as if rolling, which was awful. I…

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Some bugs

I was very happy when the player appeared on my doorstep.

Although I am annoyed that the price was reduced by almost $10 right after I ordered it, I was delighted when the player showed up on my doorstep THE NEXT morning! After purchasing an Xbox One and using it as my primary Blu-ray player, I was convinced I wouldn't need anything else. However, after numerous internet connection problems and 2 hours of 5 hour movies, I decided to change it. I am ordering this after buying my boyfriend a similar model for Christmas and he loved it. Little did I know

  • Handy Item

was in perfect condition, that tells me they sent it.

09/25/2017 I only gave these 3 stars because the Sony packaging it came in was very damaged. However, the Revain box was in perfect condition, which tells me it was shipped with a damaged box. It also appears to have either been refurbished (which I didn't find anywhere in the description or anywhere that said it was refurbished so I got the impression it was brand new). It could be seen that the box had been opened at least once, probably more than once. Also the images on the box disappeared…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Security

2 years of constant problems

I use this to play DVDs and stream Netflix and download from my computer. I bought a new one and have been using this device for 2 years. It's basically a nightmare, you can be sure that it will crash at least every 2 days. To unfreeze, you need to disconnect and reconnect the device. It boots by simply typing commands through the remote, then gets confused and freezes. If you try many, many times to choose a movie or show to watch, you'll have to go back and re-enter your choices, hoping it…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Quality

Very disappointed Best in TV & Video

I bought it on December 3, 2015. When streaming to my TV it worked fine with no hiccups. BUT I tried playing some DVDs for the FIRST TIME yesterday. Disc tray cannot be opened. No matter how many times I enter the code in the manual to override the parental controls (which I detest for a number of reasons), it won't open. You can hear him trying, but it never happens. I looked at a more detailed guide on Sony's website and tried their solution to this. THIS FIXES NOTHING. Instead, I get the…

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
  • Reliability

Incredible value and good selection of apps including PlayStation Now

I bought this to replace my Sony BDP-S1100 Blu-ray player which was outdated and starting to freeze and had other issues. I haven't had any problems with this Blu-ray player so far. Sony released four Blu-ray players this year: BDP-S1500 (this Blu-ray player), BDP-S3500, BDP-S5500 and BDP-S6500. The S1500 is the cheapest and has the fewest features. The S3500 adds Wi-Fi and Miracast, along with a few other small features. The S5500 adds 3D and 2D upscaling capabilities to 3D. And the S6500 adds

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
