So, it would probably be fair to say that if you’re the owner of a ‘top brand’ Ultra HD TV – Sony, Samsung, LG & Panasonic – you’re not likely to see any improvement using the scaling algorithms of the BDP-S6500 but if you own something more budget, you may notice a slight improvement. Using two different Ultra HD TVs to compare – a Samsung JS8500 and a Finlux 55UT3E242S-T – with slightly differing results whilst we could definitely see a slight benefit from the Sony scaling against the Finlux, if anything the Samsung TV made a better job of it than the BDP-S6500, albeit the differences were extremely minor. Since the Ultra HD ‘upscaling’ capability is the only differentiator between this model and the BDP-S5500, we thought we might as well start by testing it out.

SideView’s biggest asset is it programme guide companion but that’s not needed here so you’re limited to using it as a network remote control. The BDP-S6500 can also hook up with Sony’s excellent SideView app, although its application is a bit limited for a Blu-ray player. To be honest, Opera doesn’t have much worth shouting about, in our opinion, but you may find something of interest if you look hard enough. There is also a rudimentary web browser which is near impossible to use with the supplied remote and there’s the Opera TV store, as well, to bolster the available content.
