  • Perfect additional piece for my new laptop.
Color: Black
Funny story. Throughout the entire process of researching and buying a new laptop. I never thought to get one with a means to read all the discs for movies, TV shows, games, and music I have. So I got an ASUS ROG Strix G15 and the two work well together. It's small enough to fit into my travel kit. I know there is a protective case that was made for the device. But I am still considering it. As for the abilities of the drive. I've only really had time and need to test the ability to play stuff. Games, DVDs, and music CDs all work well with it. I also haven't had any power issues. So only the included USB cables have been needed. Not the power adapter. It's also nice to know there is a force open button if I forget to remove a disc before I power off. So far it's been a handy addition to my laptop kit. Well worth the price to me. ... show more

  • Excellent Blu-Ray player for MacBook Air 15”.
Color: Silver
Plays Blu-Ray disc and DVD great on my MacBook. Played DVDs right out of the box. Blu-Ray disc was a little tricky. Had to down load Leawo software which was totally free. Once software was downloaded Blu-Rays played beautifully. I am so happy to be able to play Blu-Rays on MacBook. The only negative thing I have to say is the cables which came with it to connect to MacBook were not to good. Switch it out with genuine Apple cable and everything worked great. I did a lot of research before I downloaded the Blu-Ray software and Leawo was the best. If your like me and want to play Blu-Ray disc on MacBook this is a very good device. The price was a little high but I am very happy with purchase. ... show more

  • Slightly better than 10 year old Blu-ray desktop drives
Color: Black
I was trying to read some of my Blu-ray discs with my decade-old Bluray desktop drives but was sometimes getting errors on some discs. With this drive some of those disc errors were resolved, but not all. There are still some stubborn discs with errors.

  • Plays Well
Color: Black
I needed an external CD/DVDBluRay player for my laptop. Works well. Even payed a DVD that was suppose to work only in Australia. Software downloaded via a link shown on the back of the instructions. Software works well.

  • It's a bit fragile for traveling
Color: Black
If you travel often with this unit, get a hard case to put it in because this drive is a bit on the flimsy side and of course, don't ever drop it. Chances are it started to break apart on it's one way trip to the floor.

  • Functionality
Color: Black
I have a hp gaming desktop, which obviously lacks DVD player. I decided to purchase an external dvd-bluray player, so could watch some movies too. Choose this Pioneer brand due to the fact that, I also own a pioneer avr elite vsx-lx105 which indeed I love. In any event, it lives up to its reputation. ... show more

Great player/reader. Happy with it so far. I really like how it can be powered by an AC adaptor or USB C cable
