So, mine's a Sony BDP-S390.
I THINK (I didn't actually look it up, I just looked at Sony BD players and that one looks most similar in appearance).
Here's the thing about it, I basically have 3 BD players...I have an older Sony model from like when a Blu-ray player was like $400 and HDDVD was still around. It's fine but has problems playing newer stuff. I still use it in one room, though.
I have an Xbox One, and it's fine, no major complaints.
And I have this other player.
This other player is the ONLY one capable of playing one of my movies that has a glitch or something (and I bought it used for a dollar from a closing Blockbuster so I can't return it) without skipping like 8 minutes of the movie. It skips like 12 seconds. It just seems to be better at handling marred discs (generally a bigger problem for DVDs than blu-rays) and generally, it runs and loads faster than the others and it's QUIET. Maybe I just think it's quiet because there's always something in the room that's been louder, whether it's the speakers or ambient noise or something, but I can't hear the thing running.
Like I said, I don't use it for Netflix or anything like that, but as just a player of discs, I think it's great. It's just a simple, small player that plays discs and plays 'em great.
