  • Great playback quality; menus were easy to follow; simple to set up,
  • Internet TV features didn't work properly; slow to respond to buttonpresses,
  • Works fine as a media player and streamer - just don't buy it for the internet features ...

  • Despite a couple of little blemishes, the Netgear NeoTV NTV550 is a solid network streamer that's very easy to use. We like its style and features and it performed as it should in our tests. At £136, it's more expensive than smaller media streamers su...

  • General compatibility, HD audio formats: support and bitstreaming, Full Bluray support, including Java menus, Content display options: page of covers, coverflow or list, Compatible with 3D MVK sidebyside files
  • Video jukebox system not as good as in competitors' models, Ogg Vorbis format not supported, Flash memory (USB key or SDHC card) required to play Blurays isn't included, Subtitles not always handled well, Can't resync audio or video files
  • Netgear is back in the media centre market with a decent product. The NeoTV 550 has plenty of options, good multimedia compatibility and a nice user interface. If Netgear is on the ball with manufacturer follow-up then this could shape up to be a popul...

  • Apart from a fairly fiddly internet content browser, there’s not much wrong with the NeoTV 550. It’s not special enough to justify its premium price, though. ...

  • Abstract:  Are you sick of buying DVDs and want a device that can play content from any source, be it a SDcard, USB flash drive or a hard drive. Buying a Rs 30,000 LCD TV might be an option, but there is a comparatively afforable device that can sort all your issues...

  • We were thoroughly impressed by the Netgear NeoTV 550. It’s a solid player that handles media very well. The very elegantly designed interface is also a thing to look at. Netgear has priced the NeoTV 550 at Rs.14,649, which is a lot of money.A somewhat...

  • Compatibilité vidéo / ergonomie, Compatible 3D et Blu-Ray (ISO ou optique), Télécommande robuste et confortable, Connectique complète
  • Encombrant, peu esthétique, Finition boitier / Encore quelques bugs, Fonctions réseau limitées
  • Après une série EVA 91500/9150 assez catastrophique, on peut vraiment dire que Netgear revient de loin! Le constructeur est reparti de zéro pour proposer une nouvelle platine capable de rivaliser avec une concurrence qui se fait de plus en plus rude. Par...

  • Le NeoTV est conçu pour tout regarder sauf la TV. Son interface très claire et sa compatibilité exceptionnelle en font une plate-forme multimédia de premier choix. Seuls les contenus connectés paraissent limités par rapport au reste de la prestation. ...

  • Compatibilité générale, Décodage et bitstream des formats audio HD, Support total des Blu-ray, avec gestion des menus Java, Différents modes d'affichage: mur de vignettes, coverflow ou liste, Compatibilité avec les vidéos 3D side-by-side (MKV 3D)
  • Gestion du jukebox vidéo encore maladroite, pas au niveau de la concurrence, Le format Ogg Vorbis n'est pas supporté, La mémoire flash (clé USB ou carte SDHC) nécessaire à la lecture des BR n'est pas livrée, Gestion des sous-titres perfectible, Il n'est p
  • Netgear revient sur le segment des boîtiers multimédias de bien belle manière. Les possibilités sont nombreuses, la compatibilité multimédia satisfaisante et l'interface convaincante. Si le suivi constructeur reste rigoureux, nul doute que ce modèle tr...

  • La prise en charge multimédia, Le support ISO, rips et DVD/Bluray commerciaux, Les menus DVD/BD et le BDLive, Le traitement vidéo de qualité, Le mode 24p auto, Le bitstream sur le DTSHD, TrueHD, AAC et WMA, Le support FLAC et Monkey's audio (en 192kHz/24 bit), La présence de l'analyse MediaInfo très performante, Le support des lecteurs optiques externes, Le port eSata et lecteur de carte SD, L'in
  • Un peu trop de bugs en l'état actuel, Le système de jaquettes simple, mais manuel, Les quelques problèmes via le réseaux en Samba et UPnP, Pas de services de VOD, catchup TV, ou musique à la demande, Pas de support du WavPack, Muse Pack, ISO DVDAudio, Pas de gestion du x.v.Colour
  • Le NeoTv 550 de Netgear est certainement le nouveau lecteur multimédia HD et réseau qui a créé le plus d'attentes en cette fin d'année par son prix indicatif accessible de 179 euros et l'intégration du processeur Sigma Designs SMP8642 qui équipe les meill...
