It seemed to be working great until our third time turning it on. When we turned it on it shows the language select screen for a split second. Then the screen goes dark and the player will no longer respond. We can't turn it off, it's just stuck in the boot.

"Tiny box that offers a lot of options! Good Blu Ray player. just a couple of niggles. No chapter or time display so you can pause or stop to make a cuppa, Remote too focussed on net usage I have a Mac an iPad, iPhone. Tried it out both wired and wirelessly too slow.

Ease to use; Quiet; Value for money

After resetting the modem / router from the cable company, our streaming experience has been enjoyable. I checked the signal strength using the Sony's menu and it seems to be more than enough to stream TV & movies in HD.

I use it to watch blu Rays DVDs and movies on my portable hard drive.
Good remote .easy to navigate. All the apps you need . No problems streaming.

Works fine, as you would expect.

Plastic, light and a little bit flimsy. That is probably the most accurate description of the build quality and design.

Excellent Blu-ray & DVD playback; Good selection of apps including Amazon and Netflix; Built-in WiFi; Good quality sound

Build Quality is average at best

Bought this as a second player for my media room. Very compact little unit, has all the features you need and performs at a very high quality. Highly recommended!
