Some customer reviews of Sony RDR-HXD1095
Most helpful reviewsKevin, Surbiton, Surrey Home cinema enthusiast
- Good points:
- The RDR-HX1095B is a superb product, I use it as well as a RDR-HX870B which I bought earlier. They both offer excellent picture quality when used as receivers, recorders or players. The Photo Album facility is particularly useful for storing and viewing digital images. I use a Sony DSC-H9 camera, and my viewing is on a Sony KDL40W4500 TV, and I find the connectivity and inter-operability of these products particularly easy. I use a Sony Vaio laptop too, and would happily recommend all of these units to anyone who is seriously into film and photography.
- Bad points:
-
Rather complicated to learn to use, the book runs to about 170 pages, but having learned how to use this product, I am very pleased with it.
There are no other bad points that I have found.

Gerry, Surrey Film lover
- Good points:
- Quality of picture. Hard disk size. Indexing system.
- Bad points:
- Channel guide layout is messy & can be hard to find programs. Would prefer layout similar to the one on my Bravia TV.

- Good points:
- Excellent value for money (for the price I paid) - huge disk, great picture quality and integrates with Bravia TV well. Typical excellent Sony build quantity.
- Bad points:
- The interface/menu screens can sometimes look a little odd, and are not as good looking as those on the Bravia TV we have - other than that nothing bad (apart from it being discontinued and superceded by another model!)

Confirmed purchaser Film lover
- Good points:
- Easy set-up (helps having a Sony Bravia TV though).
- Bad points:
- For some reason, on shutting down, sometimes it "sticks" on the AV channel & doesn't return to the TV. (May have something to do with having both SCART and HDMI connections).

Andrew, Potters Bar Film lover
- Good points:
- Stylish design and lots of features plus great amount of hard drive space.
- Bad points:
- The ability to adjust the start and end times of a timer setting would have been nice whilst setting the timer, instead you have to set it then edit it afterwards which is a bit of a long winded way of doing things. Also having a few intermittent faults with the timer where it doesn't always record programs you set up.
