Samsung BD-F5700 Wi-Fi Blu Ray Player Manufacturer Refurbished (Black)

Time will tell
I don't really have any concerns because it's refurbished. It came repacked from the factory with everything needed even a HDMI cable, a remote, 2 AAA batteries not included and manual. Everything appears as new.
I was surprised to find no port for a network connection.
I just assumed it would have one.Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi

Nice player but doesn't have all features.

Nice player but the device doesn't have a lot of streaming options compared to the Sony player I purchased a few years ago. No Amazon instant video, Crackle, etc. The unit also doesn't have an on board Ethernet port. The disc player does boot quickly and starts playing right away. Netflix and Hulu+ start quickly too.

Spend the extra money and buy new.

I was in need of a new blu ray player and because of the netflix streaming. I thought this would be a good one. It isn't. The netflix streaming freezes and stops and I have to unplug the whole thing to get it to power off and restart... Every single time!! It started doing this three days after the 30 day period that I was able to return it. Very disappointed and very frustrated.
