Attractive, intuitive UI ; Wide range of integrated streaming services ; Very cheap

No support for DTS audio ; Poor navigation for local media ; Remote has questionable layout

That said getting the WD TV Play up and running is nigh on foolproof, which means getting to your content is only minutes away.

Tiny, lower power use, cheap, great picture quality, good range of useful apps, USB input, built-in wireless, plays pretty much everything

A bit slow to navigate menus, bug sometimes crashes device and needs restart to recover

When the WD TV Play arrived, we didn't really know what it was going to do better than any other device. In fact, it turned out to be better than almost anything else we've used as a media player. It didn't encounter files it couldn't play via DLNA,...

Easy setup, Supports any TV (HDMI and AV outputs), Supports lots of local media types, Smartphone remote apps for iOS and Android, Plays local media from USB and DLNA servers

Relatively small number of apps that can't be user expanded, Does not support playback from network shares

Inexpensive streamer with wide format support for local playback

Nice small bit of kit. Connects to home network with no problems. Streams movies, music, photos, etc from my home NAS with no problem.

Cant find how to put more apps on. Not sure if you can. Think you may have to wait for WD to put more on with updates. Arrived with European instead of UK mains adapter. Sorted out. !
