The player works fine with BluRays but stutters and buffers constantly with streaming services...even though I have it set up with a wired network connection.

The DVD player mostly works, although it had trouble with a few disks. The disks may have been scratched, but not obviously so.
I was very disappointed in the streaming. It only includes a few streaming services and there is no way to add additional ones. If all you want is Netflix, you may be fine, but check the list of what's included. Also, there was no mention of this limitation on the Best Buy site.

If all you're going to use this for is playing BluRays, then it's fine. If you want to stream anything at all, ie Netflix or especially Amazon Prime, then get something else. I really wish I hadn't wasted my money on it, but everyone is always saying how Sony is the best, but it truly isn't. I've had 3 Samsung BluRay players and have never had any issues. I will never buy another Sony.

DO NOT BUY. This Blu-ray is absolute junk. Trust me, it's the second one I bought with same problem. I returned within 30 days and for "Best Buy" to not exchange this for another brand is unbelievable. Instead it will be shipped out for weeks, "repaired," and possibly returned with same problem showing up after a few days use. Any product that a store carries should be guaranteed for at least 90 days. STAND BY WHAT YOU SELL!

Skips tracks on some DVDs but works well when it doesn't skip tracks. Even after cleaning DVDs tracking was still an issue. Settled for a lesser DVD player that works beautifully.

I was so excited when I purchased the Sony Blu-ray/DVD Player-
not even 2month of having this Player. Really only watched a total of 2 movies ONLY.
The DVD player does not work- remote or hand use.
Turns on and thats it!!!!! The saddest part is that Best Buys return date was only till Feb 6th.... I had the player for only 6weeks!!
IM SO VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!! BE AWARE & DON'T PURCHASE!!

Best Buy Rep Didn't Help Caution with BestBuy

This device doesn't have Bluetooth. I'm bummed.
I spent a lot of time with the Bestbuy rep at the store giving him the minimum details of what I wanted. I didn't need bells and whistles, only the bare minimum.
I blame this not as much on Sony as on the BestBuy rep.
When is Bestbuy going to finally file for bankruptcy so we can get a store with more knowledgeable electronic device reps in my town.

I purchased this item when I bought my new TV. I’ve only played a few DVD’s when the player started skipping and the picture freezing. I’m probably one of the few people on the planet that still purchase and play DVDs. I have an extensive movie & TV show collection with several titles not available on the streaming platforms. This player caught my attention because of the WiFi streaming feature. I returned it for store credit.

It died the second time I used it

Literally the second time I used it, it got stuck on the Sony splash screen. Online troubleshooting said to hold the power button for 10 seconds. That didn’t work. It, then, said to unplug the device. I did but when it came back, it was still stuck on the splash screen. I took it back to Best Buy and they literally had to take it apart to retrieve my blu ray. Don’t bother with this product. Apparently, this is a known, unresolved issue. I got a Samsung instead.

Poor unit, when it worked it was great but after 2 failures with 2 different units just outside the warranty period and all other devices including apple tv, xbox one and LG TV all working off the same surge suppressor this unit is highly unsatisfactory and a waste of money since there is only a 15 day return policy. I will not buy another.

I have not been able to keep this thing working. I had it connected to my wifi and was able to get on Amazon and Netflix. However, the next time I turned it on, it said it was not connected and to check the internet settings but all I can get on the home screen is a bevy of apps and I cannot get into any one of them and no where on this screen is there a way to get to settings. I have wasted quite a bit of money for something that is definitely not user friendly!
