5.0 out of 5 stars Great Bang For the Buck, November 23, 2011
This review is from: Sony BDP-S185 Blu-Ray Disc Player (Electronics)
Before I did anything with this I updated the firmware. Hooking up to my Netflix account was much easier than expected. Played nicely with no freezes and the picture was excellent. Freezes in streaming are usually due to a slow Internet connection or source.

Load times are very fast. Much faster than the Panasonic BD that it replaced. I also appreciate the fact that I don't have to use an external memory source for streaming capabilities such as a USB thumb drive or a card.

I also appreciate the smaller footprint that this unit offers. It's nearly half the size of the typical BD players out there today.

All in all, I would highly recommend this player.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality Blu-ray for an Unbeatable Price, November 28, 2011

This review is from: Sony BDP-S185 Blu-Ray Disc Player (Electronics)
If you are looking for a Blu-ray player that provides access to Netflix, Pandora and a host of other streaming media, then Sony has the device for you. See Amazon at: Sony BDP-S185 Blu-Ray Disc Player This player commonly lists for $99.99, but with several Amazon connected vendors, you may wind up paying $10.00 to $15.00 less. I was searching for such a unit for my bedroom to supplement a higher priced Sony, and found this model online. For the price, the S185 does not have WiFi built in, but connects via ethernet to your WiFi router. There is a USB port on the front for connecting cameras and other peripherals; and an HDMI, plus RCA ports on the rear. This is Sony quality, so discs play effortlessly and quietly. The S185 also sports an unusual form factor, as it departs from the traditional boxy design, having a sloping, curved top... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great player for a great price., November 24, 2011

Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Sony BDP-S185 Blu-Ray Disc Player (Electronics)
I have had this player for a few weeks now and had no problems with freezes as other people reported.

The player has a nice small size. I thought about placing it vertically but you can not do that because the disc would fall out. Also the design of the case makes it difficult to stand on its side.

The drive is quiet, the remote is compact. Updating the firmware is a breeze with the Ethernet cable connected. Booting does not take too long.

Many video streaming services are installed (hulu plus, vudu, netflix just to name a few - there are many more). pandora is only one of the audio services.

Navigation looks similar to the playstation 3 if that tells you anything.

DVD's upconvert nicely, but of course look no better than on other blu-ray players.

Overall I am very happy with this player.
