Sony BDP-N460--the latest offering by Sony--weighs just under 5 pounds and is one of the best Blu-Ray players around, with a whole bunch of new features and functionalities that make playing Blu-Ray disks and web streaming a whole new experience.
Features of Sony BDP-N460
The Sony BDP-N460 comes with a stylish design, with the front panel made of glossy sleek finish and minimal clutter--only two buttons are on the right side of the panel, the play and the stop, and above are the eject and the power buttons. The disk tray is hidden and only revealed when the eject button is pressed, which opens up the front panel. The Sony BDP-N460 features a large, basic LCD screen with a USB port underneath. This player supports Blu-Ray, DVDs, CD, Audio, MP3, and JPEG files.
Drawbacks of Sony BDP-N460
Gripes about the Sony BDP-N460 involve the lack of WiFi capability and the lack of an internal memory. If you want to download BD-Live content, you have to plug in a flash drive for storage. There is also no eject button on the remote. However, the device can be fitted with a Linksys Wireless Ethernet Bridge. This gives the player the capability to stream from various sources, among them Netflix, Youtube, Sony Pictures Television, and Wired.
For its price, the Sony BDP-N460 is a reasonable buy. This is perfect for someone looking for nothing more than a player that can read Blu-Ray discs with above-average streaming features, in a cool design and at a mid-range price.
