Consumer review (newegg.com)

Satisfied Customer

Arrived in good condition by the expected date. Set up was easy and I am pleased with the performance.

The only thing that I can think of is that the new player is smaller in size than the one I replaced, so my TV screen cannot sit on top of it as it did before. The new player sits to the side of the TV pedestal as the space I have to work with is small.

Great while it lasted, lol!

When I bought it, it was on a deep discount. Whatever it actually was it was WAY cheaper at the time like almost half off so I bought it on impulse. To be honest I would recommend it IF it is on sale, otherwise you might end up with just a streaming...

Worked fantastically for the first 4-6 months. Netflix and other apps worked perfectly. Easy to setup. Really slim, fits easily just about anywhere.

Stopped playing blu-ray discs but would still play DVD's after about 6 months into owning it, however it still streams to this day like a champ!

Excellent, with some little issues

I haven't used any of the wireless features aside from the Firmware Update tool, but that was smooth and easy to do for the one update that's been available so far. Unfortunately, you can't remove items from the initial menu, so I always get those...

It plays Blu-Rays, it plays DVDs, it plays AVIs, it plays MKVs. It's pretty sleek, pretty small, and pretty cheap. All in all, a good buy for home entertainment.

The USB input CAN NOT HANDLE MORE THAN 1 TB. Even if you partition a 2 TB drive down to 1, it won't handle it. It will, on the other hand, function perfectly with flash drives, external hard drives, and internal hard drives with a USB adapter. It takes...

A standard Blu-ray player

It's a good entry level Blu-ray player. The meatiest portion, playing discs, is very serviceable. Other features, including the UI, aren't as friendly as they could be. All of that said, if you're using a DVD player now, this is an excellent...

It runs Blu-ray discs well. It doesn't have an update monthly. The size is great (about 4 Blu-ray cases, 2 high by two wide).

Other features are meh. Loading time on Blu-rays is a bit excessive.

Great Bluray player for the money!

This is a much better quality player than my Sony BD player. My Sony BD player is a pain to turn off, I either have to turn off the TV first and then shut off the BD player or switch activity on my TV and turn it off, but this BD player has no issues.

Everything!

No Hulu plus or Pandora app.

Cheap, Cheap, Cheap

This replaced a Panasonic BD player that kept blanking out. HDMI seemed to be intermittent. So far, this device from the Korean Consumer electronics giant, LG (Lucky-Goldstar) just works.

Inexpensive, compact BD player. We stream Netflix and play DVD and BD. It all works fine. It isn't a high-end box, but the image quality is great. Black levels are very good. Sound quality is great. There are two connectors on the back: Power and HDMI....
