To use its 3D features in a home theater system you need a 3D TV with 3D glasses,  A/V receiver and a good quality HDMI cable so you can bring it all to life. It is an Energy Star 3.0 compliant unit implying that it will use up less electricity than competitors.

Black Sony BDPS6500 Blu-ray player weighs 2.5 pounds and has the measurements of 15.6 x 2.8 x 10.8 inches- lightweight and compact in solid plastic. Superior image quality with Triluminos technology for better and more natural colors and up to five times more resolution than DVD for awesome HD quality movie playback (but you can play both DVD and Blu-ray discs- will start in seconds) more realistic and brighter images, high definition sound through Dolby and DTS Master Audio.

It offers a great deal of flexibility with also the ability to play more than 25 playback formats which you may see on the Amazon product page. And for the best of Blu-ray experience you need a good quality high-speed HDMI cable (you may have one at home or you have the option to get it as a bundle with this unit) for HD immersive surround sound and Full HD image with 1080p resolution. Maracas Screen Mirroring lets you view your media from your mobile device directly on large screen. It also lets you turn your tablet or smartphone- Android or iOS into a universal remote so you can control your TV. Overall this is a very high quality Blu-ray player that demonstrates great performance for Blu-ray and DVD’s- detailed, lifelike with beautiful colours and amazing sound so don’t judge a book by its cover (it looks rather bland, lightweight and compact- doesn’t offer much in the looks department). You may encounter installation issues and glitches if you don’t connect to the internet and install the firmware updates but when you get passed the installation issue what you have is an outstanding quality Blu-ray player. It is smaller than Sony’s previous S6200 model, has a more scratch-resistant surface, a more user friendly app interface, better wireless connection and would have to be one of the best picture quality Blu-ray players out there.
