Worth it if the reduced renewed-unit price matters more than owning a first-owner box, since Wi-Fi and dual-format disc playback remain intact.

Overview
This is a Sony BDP-S6500 Blu-ray disc player sold through Amazon Renewed, so the unit is pre-owned and inspected rather than new. It plays Blu-ray and DVD discs, connects over Wi-Fi for streaming apps, and outputs video at up to 4K UHD through HDMI.
Amazon Renewed items go through a functional inspection before resale, which is why the price sits below a new unit, but packaging and accessories may differ from retail. Treat the listed 4K UHD figure as the disc player's output resolution rather than a claim it plays Ultra HD Blu-ray discs, since the media type given is standard Blu-ray and DVD.
- Sony BDP-S6500 sold as Amazon Renewed
- Wi-Fi built in for streaming apps
- Plays Blu-ray and DVD discs
- Outputs up to 4K UHD over HDMI
Who it's for
Someone replacing an aging disc player who wants network-connected apps without paying full retail is the target buyer, provided a professionally inspected pre-owned unit is an acceptable trade for the lower price. It is not the choice for someone who wants a sealed, first-owner box with the longest possible warranty window.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Built-in Wi-Fi for streaming apps
- Plays both Blu-ray and DVD discs
- Compact at about 2 lb
- Lower cost than a new Sony player
- Pre-owned unit, not sealed new
- Media type is Blu-ray/DVD, not UHD Blu-ray disc
Performance notes
Built-in Wi-Fi lets the player reach streaming apps directly rather than only playing discs, and it upscales output to 4K UHD over HDMI for use with newer TVs. Because this is a renewed unit, the internal drive and ports have already seen use before the inspection process, which is the usual tradeoff against a lower purchase price.
