This unit is a great unit and is superior to Sony & Panasonic models. First it plays all the DVD recordable formats. It loads DVD and blu-ray very fast. It has 5.1 analog outs as well as HDMI and standard 2 channel audio. It has distance settings for your speakers when using the 5.1 outputs. The image quality is excellent. I have compared it to both top line Sony and Panasonic models and find it superior to both. It is a great buy.

We actually picked this up at Sam’s Club very cheap and have been impressed with the quality. We have an older TV and can only go to 1080i resolution but it seems excellent, I can’t imagine the picture being anything but perfect on a new TV with the HDMI cable included. If you aren’t concerned about the streaming features, having a wireless connection, or internal memory for BD Live features, you will probably enjoy this as much as we do if you can find it at the price we did (<$100). I don’t have anything to compare load time to, but I can’t imagine needing it to load any faster. We have absolutely no bugs and are on firmware version 1.000 still.

Besides being a fast loading excellent Blu-ray Player. This machine plays all recordable DVDs, unlike the competition. It is available for a bargain price well under $200. Highly recommended!

The Philips BDP5012/F7 Blu-ray player rivals the Big Brand Names. High Definition picture quality is excellent. DVD picture quality is excellent (near HD quality). Sound quality is excellent. Disc load time is very good. Remote control use is very good. On-screen menu provides easy navigation and simple setup. Menu button on the remote allows user to skip movie previews. Resume playback feature works great. The internal fan does a very good job at keeping the player cool. I do not anticipate updating the firmware as this player functions without defect. The Philips BDP5012/F7 Blu-ray player provides quality at an excellent price. No buyer’s remorse:)

The reviews on this were good, so I hit the button. In fairness, it plays ok, but is extremely slow to load. My unit also has an occasional digital noise problem(snow). Restarting often remedies this. Philips technical was no help. Not a bad unit for the money, you get what you pay for…..
