BDR-212DBK Revision 3.0 on Newegg Canada

Post by Xehelios » Mon Sep 21, 2026 12:05 pm

Would anyone know the firmware revision of the Pioneer BDR-212DBK that Newegg Canada sells at the moment?

https://www.newegg.ca/pioneer-bdr-212db ... 6827129091

There are a few available for purchase (if you are reading this page outside Canada, it may say out of stock, but it 's not for me), but not sure if they can be flashed.

Thanks a lot for your help in this.

problem is they are shipped from china from a 3rd party seller
and they have proven many times they cant be trusted look at all the fake drives they have been making such as xd08tc bp50nb40 with much much older drives inside lg mt1939 drives with 2024+ build dates

Damn... I thought that was an issue only with the BDR-S11JX. I didn't realize it was all Pioneer drives. How is Pioneer ok with it? Their name is on it. Well... I ordered it before knowing all this and already got my shipment confirmation, so I'll report back. If it's fake, I'll try to return it.

In any case, I also got a drive from Skydiver so at least I know I have one good one :)
