Product Shot 1 The Pros:Easy to use, very simple remote control. Good range of connection types, compatible with standard TVs as well as HDTVs. Setup is very simple, just plug-and-play.

The Cons:Takes a couple of minutes to load a Blu-ray. DVD upconversion isn't the greatest, many other players in this price range perform significantly better. Frequent component failures reported by a number of customers within the first few months.
