Freezing issues on 100 GB 4k discs

Would Not Recommend

I purchased new and have played around a dozen discs so far. All of the triple-layer/100 GB 4k Blu ray discs I've played freeze about 1h45 into the movie. The player needs to be turned off to resume. This has been frustrating and unacceptable for a device that has one job to do. I only gave it 2 stars because it does technically work for lower capacity discs, just not high capacity ones. Buyer beware.

Great experience with this product.

Would Recommend

This is my second Sony Blu-ray/DVD player I have purchased. Works beautifully very clear picture reception. The current Sony player which I purchased over 5 years ago is still working beautifully as well and that's the reason I bought this same brand again for use in our bedroom because I've had good experience with their product. I highly recommend this product.

Why two different serial numbers? How about making

Would Not Recommend

Why two different serial numbers? How about making it simple to identify it and why having one number on the box that is different from the one on the unit? This sounds terribly intentional. Without the same serial number though it is unadvisable to purchase extra warranty.
