Slow But Steady Doesn't Always Win

Pros Made by Sony
Cons Made to work slow
Recommended it? Yes

We waited impatiently for the HD versus Blu-Ray war to end before upgrading our original DVD player. When Blu-Ray was declared the winner it seemed to make sense to buy a Blu-Ray player from the father of Blu-Ray. As far as picture and sound quality the decision was fine. But for all but the most...

Your First Blu-ray

Pros Good remote, easy setup
Cons Slow startup, price
Recommended it? Yes

To go with the new HDTV, my mom recently bought a Blu-Ray player. She went with the Sony BDP-S300 without doing too much research other than the price. Having said that, I wish she had done a little more research because there are a few issues that might have prevented her from buying this unit -... Read full review »

IT CERTAINLY DOES NOT LOOK LIKE A BLURAY PLAYER!

byDennisM Nov 29, 2009

Pros Very thin, wall mountable, unique design!
Cons Can not stack this unit, and it's too wide for standard rack with loading drawer!
Recommended it? Yes

I suppose as consumers, we all get used to various products. Refrigerators are tall and rectangle, ovens are sort of square, microwaves are rectangles, and BluRay players are those rectangular boxes!

That may have been true in the past, but no more. This Samsung BluRay BDP4600 looks nothing... Read full review »

Pros Expensive looks, high speed, and wifi enabled
Cons Doomed only if accidentally upgraded.
Recommended it? Yes

I guess it's about a year, or closing in, on the purchase of this unit.  I checked a lot of reviews when it was first introduced and the consensus was fabulous BUT DON'T UPGRADE THE FIRMWARE! One of the reviews indicated poor up-conversion on standard DVD's. I dis-agree -at least when... Read full review »
