LG BP-250 Region free Blu-ray Player, Multi Region Smart 110-240 Volts, Dynastar 6 foot HDMI Bundle

I am glad I bought this player as it means I can play any DVD or Blu Ray from any region in the world. I also use it as my CD player as my TV is connected to an amp and speakers (for surround sound), so it's a great all rounder. Nice and compact too, so it doesn't take up much space. It also plays digital files from memory stick - but there are some limitations there. The player doesn't seem able to "read" any memory stick over 16GB in size. Therefore, if you have digital media (on stick) to view, you'll need to transfer it down to a smaller device. It also doesn't play all formats (from memory stick). Some older digital files that I can still play on my PC (using VLC Software) aren't "recognised" by this player - but most general modern file types read OK (MP4 etc). Buyers need also to be aware that the instructions for use aren't complete, but it's easy to work out what to do. Basically, DVD's (from any region) just play when you put them in. With Blu-Ray discs, the instructions tell you to press button 1 (for Region A), button 2 (for Region B) or button 3 (for Region C) whilst the tray is open. There is, however, another step beyond this not referenced on the instructions (see below). Once you have selected the right region (see above) the disc tray closes by itself. The next screen you see has four options displayed: "Movie", "Photo", "Music" and "Settings". Once your Blu-Ray is in, the temptation is to select "Movie"...but it will not play if you do. If you look to the very bottom of the screen, there is a small "Blu-Ray" icon displayed. Using the arrow keys and the "Enter" key on your remote, you must select this "Blu-Ray" icon in order for it to play. Then you're good to go. All that taken into consideration, it is a great device for its price and one you will get many hours enjoyment out of. It has really broadened the range of movies / TV shows I watch as a lot of titles don't get a UK release and aren't always available on other digital platforms.

Excellent Blu-Ray player great delivery

Don't do what I did and assume the other 1 star reviews saying "NOT REGION FREE" must be some kind of misunderstanding - because they're not. I got sent a standard, region locked 'LG BP-250'. As soon as the box arrived I had a bad feeling because i saw "region 2" written on it, with no instructions inside to change regions - and the first try of a foreign disc failed. It's a mystery to me as to why this is listed, very clearly as "Region free" - and yet it isn't. Look through the reviews and lots of other people are saying the same thing. Sadly, even as a region 2 player I wasn't very impressed with this machine. It played my UK Blu ray's and DVD's just fine, and i was quite impressed with the DVD upscaling, but there seemed to be errors with the software on the device. For example, I would skip a scene using the remote and the entire movie would just stop playing. Other times there would be weird static interference on the screen and the image would start to glitch. In fairness, I was given a full refund - and you will see lots of 5 star reviews on here raving about this machine. I can't quite understand where those reviews are coming from, personally, because so far as I can see this device is not what it is advertised as - the only theory I can think of is that some people are being sent region unlocked while others are not - either way it's a gamble.

I really recommend this LG Multi-Region BluRay Player - it really works, I was able to follow the instructions to change to region A for BluRays (and I am 59 and not very good at any computer gadget setting up - but this is simple - with the door open point at the player and press 1 for region A, 2 for region B or 3 for region C and there it goes) and it played my A region BluRay with no problems. As I have not yet had this BluRay Player for long, I cannot be certain this will continue changing with no problems, time will tell, but you might be interested to know that I contacted the seller who was very helpful and told me that changing the BluRay settings can be done as many times as I would want to, there is no limit to the number of times you can switch region settings, for as long as the BluRay Player still continues to function (I am hoping a long time - if not, I will be back to let you know). I previously purchased this same LG Multi-Region BluRay Player in 2020 it still works for all my DVDs of different regions and for B region BluRays (and region free of course) but when I tried playing my A Region BluRay on that older player for the 1st time after over 3 years use, I could not change the region (I do not know if it ever could, this was my first ever Region A BluRay) but as far as the DVDs of different regions are concerned I have used many without ever having any problems and no need to change settings for DVDs either. Another thing you might be interested in is that there are no high-pitched wining sounds whilst you play your films, both my BluRay players, old and new, are very quiet running - they do make quite a few sounds when you insert discs and change episodes on menus and that sort of thing, but during play whilst you are watching your films there is no annoying sounds. (Unless your dog is snoring!) I very much recommend this LG Multi-Region BluRay player. Happy customer :)

Está muy bien porque reproduce Blu-rays multizona!

The blu-ray player does what is described, it plays both region A and B Blu-rays. I haven’t been able to test if it also works for region C because I don’t have any blu-rays or dvds from that region but in the short manual that you get it does give you the “code” to switch to region C so I guess that those also work. Normal dvds work just fine you don’t even have to switch the regions for that one. In the box for the player you get a hdmi cable to connect it to your tv, a battery for the remote and you get a European cable outlet because the cable for the player is a UK one. Everything was wrapped safely so it couldn’t move around in the box. My only complaint is that the remote is really small the remote on the left in the picture is the remote for the blu-ray so the only danger there is being able to lose it because it’s tiny.

Viste le recensioni negative ero preoccupata, ma per ora funziona benissimo , riproduce zona 1 ( anche se prodotto nasce per la zona 2 ) per ora ho provato solo dvd e non i blu ray , l’entrata usb legge tutti i miei formati mp4 ….,

This was a great Purchase. Not only is this By LG. This is a Region-Free BLU-RAY DVD PLAYER. That is capable of playing any Dvd from around the world. This means you can go and buy that rare hard to find BLU-RAY or DVD and pop it into this machine by LG. And press play, then sit back and enjoy watching a great and rare movie with the most excellent picture quality and sound that this LG. Blu-ray DVD-PLAYER provides. I recommend this LG. Region-Free BLU-RAY/DVD PLAYER, To any and everyone that's a movie fanatic like myself who has a Massive Movie Collection, to go and Purchase this RIGHT AWAY! This will outlast any other Blu-ray/Dvd-Player on the market.

Works as advertised, plays almost all types of discs/regions. Minor issue with the remote control is a missing "subtitle" button. Overall, a good value for the money buy.
