Reviews of the Insignia NS-2BRDVD
-
CNET Review
The Good: Relatively inexpensive; solid Blu-ray image quality with most movies; USB port for accessing photos and music.
The Bad: Does not currently support Profile 2.0; lacks full onboard decoding for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio; DVD playback will disappoint videophiles; some annoying operational glitches; slow to load some Blu-ray movies; can't upgrade firmware with Ethernet or USB port.
The Bottom Line: The Insignia NS-2BRDVD is an underfeatured and slow-loading Blu-ray player, but it provides basic Blu-ray playback at a bargain.
