BDP-S3500/BMSP6 01 February 2021 by Bob Chua (Singapore) Verified Purchaser Verified
I used to own a bluray player that’s able to play multi region code DVD, but sadly it did not last. Bought the new Sony bluray player, like it’s amazing compact size. However there’s not indication on timer on player, that’s perfectly fine as am able to activate on screen if need be time lapse of movie. Most disappointing is the fact it only plays region 3 DVD. Come on, what era are we living that one needs to have code for specific region. People travel and there’s tendency to purchase discs from all over the world. This could be the very reason that DVD discs popularity are declining compared to streaming due to such curbs. End up I got another Philips DVD player that truly plays multi region DVDs. I am sure there are lots of unhappy reviews written about the fact it only plays region 3 DVD and is not multi region, but Sony is not listening.

BDP-S3500/BMSP6 02 December 2020 by Ken Ip (Singapore) Verified Purchaser Verified
I bought this during 11.11 sale at a good price from the Sony shop on Lazada. I chose this model with wi-fi as replacement for my home theatre bluray player which stopped working. It has all the usual features in a very compact size. It was easy to set up and works great. One thing to be aware of is that the included HDMI cable is only 1.5m long so the player has to be very close to the TV. I used my own longer HDMI cable to place it farther away. The other thing to note is that this player, like most bluray players except those that have been modified, is not multi-region when playing DVD. I expected this as my LG home theatre bluray player was the same. That’s why I have a separate multi-region DVD player for my region 1 and region 2 DVDs which I have many. For bluray playback and region 6 DVDs I definitely recommend this.

Not multi-region, few apps available.
BDP-S3500/BMSP6 02 August 2020 by Sensei On (Singapore) Verified Purchaser Verified
This will only play DVDs and Blu-ray Discs from Singapore and Hong Kong. Since most of my collection is from the US and Europe this is disappointing. I use it for Netflix and You-tube. The lack of additional apps is a major drawback. Performance is average. Sometimes the interface freezes up when exiting from the internet. Not recommended.

Trouble from the beginning
BDP-S3500 28 September 2018 by peanut123 (USA)
This player is awful, we have had trouble since we bought it. Should have returned it when we got it but didn't use it frequently enough and now regretting it. This player consistently disconnects from wifi and continues to make you login again only to say you don't have an internet connection. No amount of unplugging or restarting fixed this issue. Some days it would work, some days it doesn't. Now it won't even play a disc. We put a disc in and it made the loudest sound. We had to unplug it from the wall and managed to get the disc out. Tried it again with a movie we don't like as much and it happened again. This is probably only the 3rd or 4th time we have played a movie in it. We mostly used it for Netflix. This is crazy, faulty from the beginning.

Although I purchased this unit about a year and a half ago it was rarely used since I usually watch movies and videos via streaming. Nevertheless, the unit has behaved erratically. The keys on the box no longer function and it will not respond to the remote. Sometimes it will not load to the main menu. Then it will shut off. I was expecting a superior product from Sony.

Had this for a couple of years, with no problems. One question, though: does it have multiple region playback capability? If so, my review goes from 4 stars to 5. Honestly, I don't know why anyone has a problem with this. Blu-ray, DVD, 4K (plays as a Blu-ray), streaming capabilities, Flash drive —all great! Multi-region playback?

BDP-S3500 12 April 2018 by joe mama (USA)
Worked OK for about a year until it didn't. Suddenly blu ray had no sound, I tried everything. DVD no sound. TV sound works fine. Sony support sent me links to troubleshoot that did not work. Spent HOURS. Replaced HDMI cable. No luck. This is a piece of junk - a little over a year old and out of warranty. I called Sony support back and they won't do anything, referred me to a Best Buy repair center in FL. I called that # and the guy said it would cost more to repair than replace. What a piece of junk.

Had for about 2 years and have had to almost daily unplug/plug back in. It skips/freezes ALL the time with Netflix. It's extemely unreliable to the point of me wanting to unplug it and throw it in the trash. I got it as a wedding gift an I am thoroughly disappointed with it and it's utter lack of reliable/consistent performance outside of not working properly. My iPhone 4s works better! Seriously.

WORKS well enough
BDP-S3500 21 March 2018 by TFCSD (USA)
So far everything seems to work as expected and nothing is irritating when using the product. Plays all media without a problem and is as good as any other product I have used. Two little things I did notice, the raised bump on top ruins placing it under the TV gap by the base or placing items on top. The other is the unit only has three fast forward speeds and other players have five speeds. This means I cannot watch movies at 3X speeds with closed captions on and blow past the slow bits. Also the fast forward is murky and not smooth. Needs a 2X play speed to time compress a movie.

I have bought 2 of these and thinking maybe the first one was just faulty, but both have done the same thing. It will randomly turn off then when it is turned you have to reconnect to your internet and sign in to your apps. It's a complete waste of time. I will not be buying another one.

BDP-S3500 18 February 2018 by m0678morgan (USA)
Takes too long to power on. Then it buffers in the middle of streaming a movie, often to the point that we give up trying to watch it. I was blaming Netflix, but I started using Amazon Prime and it does the same thing on there, and even on youtube. I've already had it a couple of years, just realizing now the problem is in the player itself.

BDP-S3500 31 December 2017 by wyofisherman (USA)
I bought this over a year ago and only used it about 20 times. We used it to watch Blue-Ray movies on occasion. Now the device won't work. It boots up, flashes the home screen, then goes black. We tried all of the support offered by the tech support team (i.e. unplug and wait, hold down some buttons, restart, etc) and none of them worked and really no help from the company since it is outside of their 1 year warranty. Granted we didn't use it all that frequently I do expect the device to last many years, not less than 2. It wasn't all that expensive to purchase, but I didn't think it would be disposable. Unfortunate.

BDP-S3500/BMSP6 13 November 2017 (Singapore) Verified Purchaser Verified
I breakdown this way so those who are interested can understand why is this is a good player: Pros Fast Startup - This is the main reason why should anyone consider a proper Blu ray player than using gaming console as an Blu ray player Good Picture and sound quality Compact size thus it doesn't take up much space Cons Black Screen issue during first start-up User Interactive Menu are rather slow especially options Overall it is a good player but bug by few issues like initial start-up there will be no display which requires a reboot.

I got this around churstmas time and it worked fine till August. Then it started freezing in the middle of me doing something and the remote and box became useless. I'd try to log into wifi when I get it back up and I ended up doing it a thousand time over and over. Then it would take 5 minutes just to get the internet content back up just for it to freeze again. When it's working it's good but otherwise it seems useless u could just watch from your phone better.

The device will freeze up leaving the spinning arrows. This happens in Amazon, Netflix, Hulu, or whatever I'm streaming. The only way to continue is to unplug the device for about 30 seconds. It happens regardless of WiFi or a physical network. I've had the device for about 2 years, and it's always done this. I'd also like to have more options on the main screen with regard to apps.

BDP-S3500 02 June 2017 by TBL58 (USA)
I just bought my Sony DVD player with streaming capabilities it works great no problems except with the remote control. Hate Hate Hate it why? It's because of the placement of the Home button it's right below the down button so accidentally you Frequently hit it and it knocks you out of the system and you have to reload everything to get back to where you are. One night while placing movies on "my list" I must have hit it 5 times so frustrating. Fix this and no more problems. Thx Sony Trisha

quit working after 10-12 uses
BDP-S3500 29 May 2017 by Loriw13 (USA)
Bought the BDP-S3500 for our home gym in our 2nd home, to play workout DVD's and to use the wireless capabilty to watch netflix, etc.., when we visited here every 2-3 months, so although we have had it for a little over a year and 1/2, it hasn't actually gotten much use. In our experience, it worked fine the first couple of times we used it, but it has been inconsistent thereafter. We followed the trouble shooting instructions, disconnecting it in the specific order recommended and then reconnecting it similarly. That worked to get it running again 3 or 4 times but in the end we have gotten only 10-12 successful uses out of it over the last year and 1/2. It is now completely useless. Perfect, now that we have moved into this home as our primary residence. To confirm the problem in our gym was the Blu-Ray player (S3500), I hooked up our older Sony Blu-Ray BDP-S3200 we brought when we moved here permanently about a week ago. It fired up perfectly in our gym, but unfortunately I can't leave it there as I need it in our living room with our main TV and home theatre system. The think is the S-3200 still works great after much more significant use and 5+years. I would never recommend the Sony BDP-3500 after our experience and would give it a -0- star rating if I could. Of course we are past the warranty period so we are just out of luck with this product.
