Sony 2D/3D Multi System Zone All Region Code Free Blu Ray and DVD Player - WiFi

We have been using this a week now and hopefully this will last like other Sony products. It really does do everything! Picture is great, sound is great, 3D is amazing, streaming is flawless, Amazon, Netflix and others work extremely well! It plays every disc from every region I own with no problems. Updated firmware thru wifi and it was good to go! A few months later!!!!!! It still plays fine but streaming is mediocre at best and the unit wont turn off at times so it must be unplugged. Now this is my second multi format universal player and they all suffer from these problems eventually. I have bought 2 different players from 2 different manufacturers and they both have the same problems. I think its because of the modifications made to these players that cause the problems. So if I did buy another unit I would buy the cheapest!

I am happy with the Blu Ray Sony I have bought from Bombay Electronics via Amazon. I bought it because I wanted to see European videos which use the PAL system, a system not available in the USA. I found your product very comparable with the Blu Ray Samsung, which I was using before to watch USA videos. It is hard to find out for me any noticeable difference between the two machines. Perhaps I would say that the color I see may be slightly better (for my taste) on the Samsung. But this perception may be a matter of pure teste, or the fact that for years I was watching only USA formatted videos. But this product, as said above, is very good, it does not weight much, and it is very easy to use. I will recommend it to people who want to have a way to watch European PAL videos, plus the American formatted ones, with quality in the video and the sound.

First impression. Very easy to set up. As for a couple of comments about instructions on changing region for blu ray I don’t see how they could have made it easier. Instructions are clear and simple as the photo shows. I purchased 2 of these to replace my LG players although they still work great and have been using them for the past 4-5 years. Bottom line my initial impression is these Sonys do what they claim and anyone could have this set up and playing 5 minutes out of the box. If anything changes I’ll update the review but as of now very satisfied.

This product opens new doors for video entertainment and possibly pays for itself. I have found multiple popular, albeit hard to find Blu-ray titles from Amazon.co.uk (England) and Amazon.de (Germany) that are bargains in comparison to their U.S. products that have limited availability. The current strong dollar also makes the purchases attractive. I have found many excellent travel and documentary titles that are not available in NTSC format. I enjoy travel videos and have found professionally produced titles from those sources that are far superior to similar videos available in the U.S. For anyone who seeks quality videos at affordable prices, this product is a true asset for providing a means of viewing DVDs and Blu-Ray discs for all zones and regions.. .

Easy to set up. Missing the old fashioned red/white/yellow connections, so be sure you are HDMI ready. Does standard DVD regions automatically and a simple press of the "B" button (or what the guide says for the region you want) on your remote, before starting the Blu-Ray discs. I had auto start turned off, but it still started so I had to open & close the drive door while pressing the region button. Piece of cake. I was even able to connect it to our surround sound with a simple RCA (red) plug. I still need to test the 3D mode, but I dont expect any problems. The only thing missing on the remote is a "source" button to switch from the DVD to TV/Cable Box. Bonus! It connected easily to my wireless and streams Amazon, Hulu, Netflix (there is even a Netflix button on the remote) plus others. Great purchase!

I ordered this item after comparing reviews and specs of all the available multi region players I could find. After putting this unit through the usual tests,I can actually make an assessment based upon years of home theater component installations. First,let me suggest that spending the few extra $s on this model over the base models is well worth it,in my view. The remote is well designed and works great. Make sure if you buy this particular unit,you first connect it to the Internet via the LAN input. From there,your player will notify you that there is a firmware update available. This update will make the Amazon instant streaming available. The setup is easy. The directions are simple to understand. The player works so well that I can honestly say the playback quality is within the realm of some players costing 10 times as much,including my Oppo BD 93! I know Sony CS ranks as the worst,but for this price,you cant go wrong!

This blu ray player is AWESOME!!! It plays 3D blu rays, but most of all, it allows me to watch discs that were outside my viewing experience because of the region they were released in. Since I received my player, I have been able to order DVDs and Blu-rays from other regions that are not available in the US. This player is priced so that I could afford to finally allow myself to see these films that before I was unable to view. dont let its small size fool you. While this player may be small, it packs a big punch as a player of media from all over the world. I am so happy that I chose to order this.

Most of our DVDs are from the U.S., but occasionally we will pick up a DVD from England or Australia and it has been frustrating not to be able to watch them. We have only just received the Sony player, but it is everything that it promises. The picture is so crisp that we are retiring our old Samsung player in favor of this one. Easy to set up and use. No problems hooking it up to our existing television. Has played everything we own, so far.

I bought this DVD player for my (elderly) parents. I set it up for them and taught my mother how to use it. It could not be easier. I chose multi-region because sometimes they watch videos from Portugal or elsewhere and the last thing I wanted was my mother getting upset that something wouldnt work; and the nice thing is that you dont have to do anything for a DVD thats from another region, the machine just recognizes it on its own. (I think its slightly different for Blu-Ray but havent tried that.) Its lightweight, compact, and so easy to "install"--just a matter of plugging in the HDMI cable, in this case.

Excellent player. Picture quality is great. Love the compact size. As mentioned by other purchasers, the only issue is that the instructions are not clear. For Blu Rays, do not use the power on/off button - Instead, just click on the color button that corresponds to the Region of the Blu Ray you want to watch and the power goes on and plays fine.
