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

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.

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
