Overview

Sony makes this derivative version of its basic Blu-ray player with one difference: an HDMI cable in the box. It plays Blu-ray at Full HD, upscales DVDs and streams over a wired Ethernet link.

Everything needed to connect to the TV comes in the box, and wired streaming tends to stay steady. Without Wi-Fi it depends on a network cable reaching the TV stand.

Who it's for

Setups with a router or network jack near the TV and a stack of discs to watch suit it well. Rooms that rely on Wi-Fi for streaming need a wireless model.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • HDMI cable in the box
  • Wired streaming is steady
  • Dolby Digital and DTS support
Cons
  • No Wi-Fi listed
  • Ethernet cable not included
  • Single HDMI output
  • Full HD only

Performance notes

Picture is capped at Full HD, with DVDs upscaled toward HD quality by the player. Streaming runs over Ethernet, so it is as steady as your router connection. Audio formats pass over HDMI to the TV or receiver.
