I bought a 55" Ultra HD TV for my son and it wasnt long before my friends informed me that his regular, cheap ol Blu-ray player was not going to be capable of delivering a clear picture with his regular DVDs. I researched and learned about "upscaling." I finally decided on buying this Sony BDP-S6500 Updated Multi-Region Zone Free Blu-ray DVD Player and am quite happy with it. Blu-ray DVDs are crystal clear, of COURSE, but even regular DVDs of very old movies (like "The Ugly Dachshund" from waaay back in the 1960s) are extraordinarily clear. I cant comment on any of its MANY features because we are using it strictly as a DVD player. I have not even connected it to our wi-fi. But because it gives us a beautiful and clear picture on ALL our DVDs I am very happy that I bought it.

Very easy installation - only the wall plug and the HDMI cable (which is included) to hook up. Just follow the short instruction booklet and you will be up and running in no time at all. Went right to the setup button and changed any setting that I needed to, and mostly just clicked the couple of buttons needed to hook the unit up to my wireless which worked perfectly. The only issue that i had was running the sound through my stereo system - and that had nothing to do with the Sony player, but my older stereo receiver which did not have any HDMI hookups. Used my own digital cord and plugged it into the Sony unit and once I fiddled around with the right stereo receiver settings to find the right place to plug the cord into, worked just fine. Well worth the price - DVDs from the UK played just by loading then in the tray. Have not tried the other regions for Blu-ray disks, but see no reason they would not work as well.

This product from Sony is fabulous. Havent had nothing yet it couldnt play. I had a DVD /Blu Ray player from Samsung before I had this one. They dont have a multi region player like Sony. It couldnt compare to the Sony. Dont hold a candle to it. I dont really understand why a high tech company wouldnt have top of the art multi player like Sony but they dont. Thats why from now on Sony has my business.I never should have tried anything else. Well Sony lesson learned. Great job and recommend you to anyone.

Extremely fast shipping! Seller was very responsive to my issue. I must confess I overlooked the sheet with the instructions on the modification as I only saw the word "warranty" and ignored the entire sheet. However, I must also state that the instructions had to be done several times before it worked. I am not 100% sure what I did differently to get it working, but the instructions are essential. Read (and even re-read if you have to) and your system should work.

It really plays Blu Rays from other regions. When I pause a disc and want to resume where I left off the next night or several nights later it only sometimes resumes where it left off. Works well, good picture, and loads faster my Sony Blu Ray player purchased the previous year. It doesnt seem to have the problems people described with the next model down Sony multi-region player

This is an upgrade from a 1st generation BR player. So much has changed. BR discs load almost as fast as a DVD. The built-in web channels are a great convenience. The picture quality is awesome, and how to use it is very straightforward. Im a happy customer. My one complaint is that the PBS channel isnt included, but I can live with that.

If you have European DVDs and Blu Ray disks you need an appropriate player. This region free player works well. For DVDs it is completely automatic. For Blu Ray the instructions indicate that there is a pre step. As I only have DVDs from Europe I havent had to try that, but based on the other unit features I am sure it will also work well.

This product worked exactly as advertised. It plays all Region DVDs out of the box and easily sets up to play Blu Rays from any area. The initial set up is simple. Sound and image quality is very good. Money well spent!
