Sony BDPS1E - Blu-Ray 1080P DVD Player
£699.99
Doesn t really deliver anything extra for the price, apart from size! - My god where do i start? I m not going to claim that this is a bad Blu ray player, that would be rediculous, but having experienced it in action it really doesnt do anything that any other blu ray player does, that is play blu ray discs! but it s astronomicaly expensive and rediculously enormous bordering on laughable, it reminds me strongly of my first ever dvd player back when that was a new technology, that was a brick which quickly became outclassed and forgotten, i suspect the same will happen here, this is something for people with more money than sense. Just one last quick note, currently as i type this there is only one of these for sale, through another vendor than Amazon priced at 999 pounds. This does not including shipping, absolutely rediculous.
Sony BDPS1E Blu-Ray - The picture quality is superb full HD 1080p, colours are very good. Lots of options to find the one suit you. Good solid built. However, I have 2 major problem with this product 1:- extremely slow to boot and get going 2:-extremely difficult to upgrade let alone to find the upgrade files on Sony website. It is a challenge to update the product. There are alternative products in the market same quality and futures but less costly. I cannot justify the monies paid to this product. Mine is on sale as second-hand.
Fantastic bar the firmware update - This Blu ray player from Sony has to rank as one of the best currently on the market. The build quality is superb, feel much more solid than the Sony S300. The picture quality on a full HD 1080p TV is up there with the Pioneer BDP-LX70 which is double the cost, colours are rich, deep and detailed whilst animation is mind blowing! I have personally had all the above machines linked up to my system and am more than happy with this machine. This is the only Sony Blu ray player currently to have achieved a 5 star rating in What HIFI and DVD Magazine, that includes the S300. The only drawback is the firmware update which requires a download from the Sony website which is difficult to find and not the easiest to update. This is the main gripe with the machine which stops it from getting the full 5 stars.
