Meager facilities, but top format diversity.

The fact that these players do not sell well no wonder.
He has less than the more attractive introductory Player from Sony or Samsung and is therefore even easier expensive.
I ordered it anyway as a second player because I do not need smart stuff and have had very good experiences with the playable formats at LG.
For comparison, I had my 4 year old Philips BDP5000 (time Player of the lower middle class).

Appearance:
+ Very small and handy (half the size of the 5000 and one-third as light).
Ø works by slightly but "fragile".

To play
+ Diks be quickly read (twice as quick as the 5000).
+ HD looks great, is the 5000 in every way.
Ø DVD upscaler for the price range perfectly OK (minimally worse than in 5000), but since it still more, but also with other manufacturers only in the very expensive equipment.
Ø Like other small player is this when you play up close (
Equipment:
+++ Played all supported formats without a murmur from. The old 5000 and newer competitors doing some problems
- No Smart TV (personally for me rather advantage)
- No separate audio output (many TVs can but fortunately today the sound for audio system by grinding)
- He has no time display (you can, however, also briefly Show)

Conclusion: This beginners Blu-Ray Player provides in comparison to competitors rather little. The lack of smart functions are probably bearable for many. The lack of audio output is for people with audio system without TV that supports looping, but a KO criterion. Who can ignore the fact that gets a very compact unit with good image quality that is characterized by the large number of supported formats, which can also be really reproduced. Here the whole competition (eg the Sony S1100, the I've tried times) lags behind some.
