    Philips DVP-3120: An in-depth review
    I have this DVD player and I love it. Now I watch all my movies and TV shows on it. It’s a shame it doesn’t play HD-DVD or Blu-ray Disc formats, I really want to enjoy the new technology.

    I have over 3,000 DVDs now including movies, a Britney Spears concert in Las Vegas and some TV series like, for example, Alias, Lost, Heroes, Desperate Housewives, 24, etc.

    As I said before, it’s a shame it doesn’t play HD-DVD or Blu-ray Disc formats, I really want to enjoy the new technology.

    Well, that’s it for my review of the DVP-3120 from Phlips. There ya go!

    Multi-region playback is in!!
    I could hardly believe that my new DVD player actually plays all regions until I hooked it up to my letterbox TV after coming back home from my European vacation. It appears that it actually came around the first week I was gone, just when I though it would come before I left. What a relief!! Believe it or not, it works really well on my American, German and Chinese DVDs. In fact, I was able to watch the DVD I had bought almost 3 months ago and I love it. I give the Philips staff all the best and have faith they can make their next line of equipment even better.

    So far So Good
    Just received this unit thru Fed Ex, plugged it in and played my new Status Quo, Doin it live, it worked perfect, & I didnt’ have to put in any codes for this 2,3,4,& 5 region dvd. It also plays region 1 good also. I ordered & received it within 4 days.

    A Waste of Money
    The performance of our DVP3140 was spotty right from the beginning. At first we blamed an occasional disc, but over time it has become obvious that this player has “issues.” Even brand new, flawless discs — both commercial releases and PC-burned content — will yield anything from random artifacts to intermittent freeze-ups. In terms of enjoyment, the DVP3140’s worth quickly goes right through the floor. I don’t plan to buy another Philips product ever again.

    Plays well-like the other Phillips DVD players
    I bought this player for my best friend as a birthday present. I had bought two region free players last year–both were the discontinued Phillips 640 model–and they have worked fine. I bought this one from a dealer as a refurbished model; when my friend opened it and when we put in the DVD (that I’d purchased from the UK) it did not play. I immediately checked the Amazon website and thanks to one of the reviews I was able to get it to play the UK discs and the ones bought here in the US as well. I know my friend is happy because she can now see the Bad Girls series without having to wait for it to crawl by every week on one of the cable channels. This is a very good choice for a region free player and also works well as the “everyday” player for your movie watching as well.
