Reviews of Blu-Ray Players

zdnet.com Title: Sony BDP-S300 Blu-ray DVD Player

Pros: Excellent picture quality on Blu-ray and DVD; DVD upconversion up to 1080p; HDMI output.

Cons: No onboard Dolby TrueHD decoding; slow load times, particularly unbearable on newer BD Java discs like Pirates of the Caribbean; some minor video performance issues; no Ethernet port for firmware upgrades.

Verdict: The BDP-S300 is a decent choice if you're limiting yourself to a relatively cheap, standard-design Blu-ray player, but everyone else should consider the competition.

Summary: As one of the major players in the Blu-ray vs. HD DVD format war, we weren't surprised when Sony announced a price drop for the BDP-S300 to the relatively low list price of $500. Despite the fact that we've been wowed by Blu-ray's image quality, price has

homecinemachoice.com Title: Sony BDP-S500

Pros: Excellent images, Solid build quality, High resolution audio

Cons: No SACD, No DTS-HD Master Audio, Not Profile 1.1

Verdict: A great quality player, but with Profile 1.1 only around the corner, it's hard to recommend wholeheartedly

Summary: Thanks to the PlayStation 3, the Blu-ray Disc Association is claiming minor and major victories in the HD format conflict, but while some software is shifting in significant numbers, organising a ticker-tape parade is premature
80/100
homecinemachoice.com Title: Sharp BD-HP20H

Pros: Great Blu-ray images (in 24p mode), Slimline design

Cons: Mediocre DVD playback, No BD Java 1.1 support, No DTS hi-definition audio, No simultaneous HD output on HDMI and component

Verdict: It's a bit minimalist when it comes to features but Blu-ray performance shows off everything good about the format

Summary: Sharp is a big name in Blu-ray. Not a lot of people know that. It's not because the company is a prolific maker of BD kit: rather, the company is a mass-producer of the blue-violet laser diodes vital for Blu-ray players

cnet.com.au Title: Sony BDPS500B Review - Blu-ray & HD DVD

Pros: Excellent sound, Great build, Dolby TrueHD output, Upscaling works well

Cons: Blu-ray playback leaves a lot to be desired

Verdict: The Sony BDPS500B is an excellent sonic performer and will upscale your DVD collection -- but it's outshone by cheaper players for Blu-ray playback.

Summary: sony bdps500b review: The Sony BDPS500B is an excellent sonic performer and will upscale your DVD collection -- but it's outshone by cheaper players for Blu-ray playback.

zdnet.com Title: Sony BDP-S350

Pros: Relatively inexpensive compared with other standalone units; excellent Blu-ray image quality and very good DVD upscaling; compact size; onboard decoding for Dolby TrueHD and bit stream output for all high-resolution audio formats; Ethernet port for firmwa

Cons: Not currently compatible with Blu-ray Profile 2.0; recessed USB port can be difficult to access; no onboard DTS-HD Master Audio decoding; quick start option uses power even when player is off.

Verdict: If you're dead set on a standalone Blu-ray player, the BDP-S350 has a small form factor, solid feature set, and relatively low price--but the PlayStation 3 is still a better value.

Summary: Sony has been the public face of Blu-ray since the format's inception, and while most of the focus during the bitter Blu-ray vs. HD DVD format war was on the company's PlayStation 3, Sony has been making standalone Blu-ray players from the start, beginnin

asia.cnet.com Title: Preview: Samsung BD-P1400

Pros: Adds GPS capabilities to the already impressive and sleek messaging smart phone; 2-megapixel camera; Bluetooth; good call quality.

Cons: Doesn't offer Wi-Fi or 3G support; Web browser isn't the sleekest; the camera lacks video-recording capabilities; you only get the proprietary BlackBerry Messenger IM client.

Summary: Finding it hard to cough out big bucks for the S$2,699 Pioneer BDP-LX70A? This Samsung player may be a more affordable solution to unlocking a full Blu-ray HD audio-video experience.

asia.cnet.com Title: Review: Panasonic DMP-DB30

Pros:  Excellent picture quality on Blu-ray discs; 1080p24 HDMI output; 1080p DVD upconversion; HDMI 1.3b-ready; outputs Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio bitstream; Profile 1.1-enabled; SD card slot playback of HD video from AVCHD camcorders.

Cons:  No built-in high-resolution audio decoding; no network jack for firmware upgrades or future interactive content.

Verdict:  The Panasonic DMP-BD30 offers excellent video quality and is Blu-ray Profile 1.1-compliant, but those who want high-resolution audio will need a new-gen A/V receiver.

Summary: This Blu-ray Profile 1.1 player is the most complete HD kit to date with pristine 1080p24 video and high-resolution audio.
