A great step up from theo- bd300, my favorite blu ray on theo- market right now.
Of the new poser year ‘2009′ blu ray players, we own the lg bd370, samsung bd-p1600, and a ps3. By far, the bd370 is the nicest as blu ray content. Loading is fast and the drive is completely silent (this is not the examine upon the bd-p1600 by samsung). Piano black finish upon the face is plastic, and looks good. We get found that it does not scratch easily too! The cessation of the examine is black-ish metal and sturdy.
One of the significant things about the lg bd370 is you can customize the look of the interface upon your tv. There are 4 themes and all are inner high-definition. The remote upon the bd370 changed from the bd300, and i feel it was a step down. It’s got a faux-leather finish upon it – why? No idea. The one improvement is buttons that don’t get used enormously are hidden after a panel upon the remote.
Netflix ‘watch instantly’ is very cool and the organization is literally 30-40 seconds if you already get an account. Just after we got ours, lg bd370 alerted us that a firmware update was available! It added cinemanow – we hadn’t used cinemanow before, but a quick registration upon their site and connecting was just as easy as netflix. Rented a couple movies to try it out – very cool. Youtube is also available upon the player and it’s awesome. I’d easily compare it with an appletv, though believe it or not, the bd370 is a bit faster at inquiring and playing youtube videos – it also does them inner full screen, no problem.
One odd thing we’ve noticed… with netflix and cinemanow and youtube we get only watched 3 or 4 movies upon blu ray. So enormously other content available that this player is really a steal – it’s a fantastic blu ray player (audio and video as good as you conceive it would be), but wow is it awesome to get a player that does so enormously other stuff.
No wireless upon this player, nor does it get built-in memory as using bd-live. Neither of these items should be cause as concern – i haven’t seen a bd-live feature yet that has been worth while… All the good stuff is usually already upon the blu ray disk itself.
The thing that makes it just a bit better than our samsung bd-p1600 is the front display. The circular button assembly upon the front glows a soft blue when playing blu ray, soft red when playing dvd, and purple upon certain netflix, youtube, and cinemanow video. The main display is also helpful, showing ‘netflx’, etc and most importantly, you can see the display (the samsung player’s display is so dim you wouldn’t believe it).
