5.0 out of 5 stars
budget player?,
By
This review is from: LG BD650 2D Blu-ray Player (Electronics)
Have read some 3 star reviews of this and believe they have un-fairly marked this player down because it doesn't have features that it never even claimed to have...Just got this today for the sitting room, checked that it can play the most common types of video files that I enjoy, and can confirm that it does indeed have a very good blu-ray player function, as well as playing .avi and .mkv files perfectly. I didn't even have to adjust any settings for audio or video resolution, it auto detects what your TV screen can handle I believe, for mine it set it to 1080p 50hz and 2 channel audio... I do most of my movie watching in another room on my PS3 and bigger audio 5.1 system, but after using this today for even 10 mins or so I like this better than my PS3 for playback, so may have to even buy another one for that room and just leave my PS3 for gaming instead. The boot up time of this player is pretty much instantaneous, if I had to hazard a guess maybe takes 5-10 seconds from hitting the on button to choosing which type of file you want to play in the menu. I updated the firmware also to the newest version found on the LG website, put it on a USB stick, booted up the player and inserted the drive, it then tells you it's found the update and confirm that you want to update the firmware... approx 10 seconds or so later it's done and rebooted the system. The negative reviews about this are mostly because it doesn't have networking functions such as wifi, ethernet and therefore no DLNA support either.. for me this doesn't bother me, I have a USB 3 hard drive and I load the files onto that to playback on the blu-ray player.. even for approx 20-30GB of files it only takes approx 5 mins to transfer from my PC onto the USB3 hard drive, so while I'm waiting I make a cup of coffee or whatever. I only paid £42.95 delivered for this excellent piece of equipment and in my opinion is worth way more than that even... fast boot up, quick disc load times, plays many types of video and audio files both from dvd/blu-ray discs or USB devices (supports both FAT and NTFS format drives), plays subtitle files too.. ahven't checked out all the different types of video/audio/subtitle files it will handle yet, but give me time.

Solid blu-ray player,

This review is from: LG BD650 2D Blu-ray Player (Electronics)
This is a great entry level blu ray player;It starts up and loads blu rays quickly, and is virtually silent whilst in operation. Sound and picture are both good from the player, and it does a decent job of up scaling DVD's also. The menus are incredibly intuitive and initial setup is simple. Be sure to check for and install the latest firmware to avoid any problems though. This is an entry level model, and so doesn't have the networking abilities of better models, or other 'luxury' features, but it does everything you would expect of it. Also, be warned that it doesn't come with an HDMI lead so buy one of those too. Another small gripe I have is the very poor "simple manual" that is provided - meaning that you have to visit the LG website for the proper manual. All in all it is an excellent entry level machine, and great value for money

Great Blu-ray Player,
By C.K. (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: LG BD650 2D Blu-ray Player (Electronics)
Bought this LG blu-ray player for my secondary HDTV set up and it's great.The blu-ray picture quality is fantastic, very sharp and detailed. It also does a good job of upscaling DVDs too, delivering a pretty decent picture. It doesn't come with a HDMI cable however so you will need to buy one separately. Overall a great player, recommended.
