I bought this DVD player to go with a new LG Cinema Screen 47LM7600 47-Inch Cinema 3D 1080p 240Hz LED-LCD HDTV with Smart TV and Six Pairs of 3D Glasses. I wanted something that would work together seamlessly with, that would produce great picture quality, and would be user friendly. A month into using this DVD player, I think I got all three.
I like that the DVD player itself and remote is easy to operate. It's easy to find the settings I want and to control the DVD player as necessary.
But of course, what I really like is how it works with my TV for wonderful picture quality. I expected my Blu-Ray DVDs to look great but am also impressed by how well it renders old, standard DVDs. Of course they don't compete with the HD DVDs I own but they look much better than they did on my old standard resolution TV and much better than my non HD television channels. This means that if I can get a good deal on a regular DVD vs. Blu-Ray I sometimes opt for that because the picture quality meets my needs. I also haven't had any issues with the firmware freezing that other people have mentioned.
The only thing I cannot decide is whether some of the SmartTV capabilities are redundant with my TV, but even without using them, this seems worth the money so it is not a big deal.
The bottom line is I don't think you have to be a TV or technology junky to appreciate or get the most out of this DVD player. Even as someone who is inclined to use most of the default settings and doesn't necessarily notice minute differences in picture quality, I've been impressed and satisfied with this.
