The quality of the player is very good, it plays many movies in a much better quality, the only trouble that I have had so far has been with blacks on the player, which often come out in a fuzzy and distorted focus.

The price is the best feature here though, for about £50, you could get your hands on one of these upscalers. Compared with the typical £200 asking price for a Blu-Ray player, this is not bad going at all. THe quality will not be as good as Blu-Ray, but the price justifies this.
Overall, this particular player does the job it was meant to very well, and comes competitvely priced. I would not recommend it though, because after a while the quality of blacks does become very annoying, and ruins some movies, so this just scrapes four stars.
Advantages: Gives an option for every possible form of videos and audios Disadvantages: No disadvantages as of yet.
