Pros: It's a cheap player Cons: It won't play Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs or half the new Blu-Ray on the market. Sharp says they need to make a firmware upgrade and has been extreemely slow to do so. from Newegg.com I can't speak for others, but after doing the latest firmware update, I have not had any playback issues. Every Blu ray or DVD I've watched has played flawlessly. from Amazon.com This blu-ray player is awesome, when it works. I've had a few movies that are very difficult to play, and some that won't play at all...most are not problematic. from Amazon.com This unit (like the HP 20U before it) is no longer listed on the Sharp web site, there are no firmware upgrades, and you can no longer reach tech support for it by phone. This appears to be another failed product and Sharp has abandoned it and their customers. from Amazon.com I bought this product 2 months ago, it only worked the first time, took a lot of time to charge the movie, then I tried to move my BD into a new location,took the cable, and the hdmi out was broken! I understand this product is an entry level model, but come on, so I called Sharp service and they told me I need to pay for this, the shipment ($40) and the revision ($50), I should pay a minimum of $90!!! from Amazon.com Pros: None. Cons: I have a BD-HP20 and have had nothing but problems. It has been back to Sharp once when it just quit working 9 months into ownership. from Newegg.com Pros: It is Blu-Ray Cons: High percentage of Blu-Ray discs stop playing 1:18 minutes into the movie. Took two titles to the store where I purchased the unit and they played fine on 3 other Blu-Ray players. from Newegg.com Pros: It plays Blu-Rray discs which look and sound great. Cons: Its so slow. from Newegg.com Pros: Picture looks good for the price Cons: Disc tray takes FOREVER to ejectBluRay movies take FOREVER to loadTakes FOREVER to power up and shut down Other Thoughts: I guess I can't complain since I got it for free with the purchase of a Sharp 52" LCD. Had I spent anything over $99.99 I'd be pretty upset. from Newegg.com Since this a entry level blu-ray player, I read up on all of the positives and negatives of this model. The first couple of blu=rays I bought- no problem. from Amazon.com
