Cute and small unit. The Wifi internet access via apps is rather sluggish compared to my computer. I have slow internet (3mb) so maybe that's why. But I'm happy with the slow motion, fast play, .both backwards and forwards and the remote control has a good layout than another Chinese brand that I also got but not as good as my old Panasonic DVD player. The Sony upscaling of DVD and BluRay look fine on my TV. The memory of the previous place on a DVD works but my old Panasonic remembered multiple DVDs whereas the Sony only remembers one (as far as I can tell.) Plus it is annoying that it takes you to the Youtube app selection instead of the DVD -- i.e. you need extra presses to get to where you were when you were last using the machine. I'm not sure but it seems that you have to press STOP or else it doesn't remember where you were. My old Panasonic was much better in all these respects -- smarter well laid out remote, better memory for previous plays, and more precise slow and fast motion, plus it had a built in display that showed where you were on the DVD -- the Sony only shows that on the TV screen, when you press the DISPLAY button. The Panasonic had enough front panel buttons to play a DVD without needing the remote -- so don't lose the remote!Read full review

I bought two of these BDP-S3700 units and have been having problems with them out of the box. You Tube and other videos freeze. I also have a friend who is having the same problem with his and after doing some research on the internet, I find it's a very common problem with not only this model, but Sony DVD players and Smart TV's in general. I have worked with Sony Tech Support several times to fix the problem, however it still occurs regularly. I think the best solution is to return the items and buy another brand.

This BDP-3700 was chosen after some spec comparison and review reading. The initial unit was open box and worked well but the remote had been swapped out for one with leaking battery damage, so both were returned. The second unit was new and worked perfectly. After a simple install the player was up and all focus turned to the remote button layout and GUI for user experience. I will say for the disk playing; it works well, the image and audio are excellent. But the transport buttons on the remote are awkward and simple tasks like hitting pause take some effort to locate and perform. The buttons lacks tactile ID and they blend together. To compound this he main control buttons (Top Menu, Pop up Menu, Return, Options) seem to be mislabeled or at least don't follow reason. They can be learned but the remote could do with overall increased button spacing, better grouping and labeling. The Streaming controls like Netflix or Youtube work well but the latency is much longer than say a Roku interface. The button press to response can take seconds. One nice feature that I do enjoy is when Youtube is paused, and you come back in several hours, your show is still cued up ready to play. On Roku a pause will timeout and you then have to navigate back to the show and where you left off. I find it most convenient to keep both streaming controllers hooked up to make bouncing easier. Overall the player would get a 5 but the remote only a 3. But it's compact and works, I'd buy it again.Read full review

Plays disc well, apps are ok, but not as nice as Roku. Remote is small, would like it better if it had more space between buttons for larger fingers. It has on/off and Input, and Volume select for TV; it could almost replace the TV remote if it had Channel select. The Zoom feature is only accessible through menu, it would be nice if it was a direct button like my Sony TV remote. I did have a problem getting it to access my public Wi-Fi, I had to type the MAC address into router to finally get it connecting.

I replaced an older Sony unit, that developed a "whine" when playing discs, with this one. It is much smaller and uses one connection, HDMI to my receiver. This one is whisper quiet, played DVDs and BDs flawlessly with a great hi-def picture, and with Wi-Fi is easier to use than my ROKU for such things as Youtube, Netflix, Amazon, and HULU for videos and movies. My only complaint is the remote does not have the buttons for "10 seconds replay" and "15 seconds forward" when playing discs. Fortunately I can use my old remote for that and the little player responds appropriately. A nice, high-quality player for a small price.
