I purchased the Sony DVP-NS330 DVD player earlier this year and was, and still am very impressed. It’s a simplistic but effective player. I chose this player for a number of reasons including the Sony brand.
The player itself is compact and sleek, very attractive and slim-line. It is finished in metallic silver and has a fairly large display. The controls on the unit are organised very well. The player features a dial used for searching and can also be pressed to play a disc. Other than that there are only six other buttons which control the basic functions, this adds to the simplicity of the design. The player has one scart socket in the back.
The remote control provided is quite large and bulky. However it features a large number of buttons. These are laid out in an organised fashion and help the user effectively control the player. The remote control takes two AA batteries (adding to the bulkiness) which should be provided.
Supported formats: DVD, DVD-RW, VCD, CD, DATA-CD (MP3 CDs). MP3 Cds are played through an on screen browser allowing the user to select tracks, this was a deciding factor for me personally. The player also supports multi-region discs which is great because you are not limited to only Region 2 (UK/European) discs. An option from which I have taken advantage of recently!
The player works well and delivers good sound and picture quality. It offers many features for play mode, for example Shuffle, Repeat, A-B Repeat etc. It also features a rapid scan, slow motion play, search, freeze frame and offers a number of picture modes to suit your TV or preferred viewing experience. The onscreen interface is fairly simple to use and navigate. There are a number of options here such as screensaver, background, tv type etc.
Price wise this DVD player is great value for money. It’s a good quality player by a name that can be trusted and boasts a large number of features. The only drawback really is that it isn’t a DVD recorder but for the price you wouldn’t expect it to be. The unit itself is fairly wide but the slimness of the design makes up for this.
Supplied documentation is very detailed. The instructions are easy to follow with plenty of diagrams, although the system is quite simple to set up and operate.
I would recommend this player to anyone who is looking for an affordable player giving them a range of options and playable formats. This would be an ideal secondary player or DVD player for a child’s room but could also fit perfectly as a main player.
Advantages: Good quality sound and picture, Slimline Appearance. Disadvantages: I need one for the kids now.
...good to be true... a Sony multi-region DVD player for so cheap! Well, that's what I intially thought anyway. Serves me right for not trusting amazon.co.uk.
Delivered for free and just in time for Christmas usage, the DVP-NS330 is probably one of the best beginner DVD players your hard earned cash could be spent on at the moment. Although a friend of mine who bough the same model had some trouble when her four year old TV was playing some of her ... ...player!).
As with most Sony products, the player comes with cool, crisp lines and the unmistakable Sony style. The build quality is good, although it does feel a little light when you first remove it from the packaging. The mechanism is quiet and efficient, and the LCD display is bright enough to be seen even through the smoked glass doors cabinet. The remote control is a little ugly (although easy to use and well laid out), but with the 330 model ...

Advantages: Excellent quality, looks good/ modern, can play most formats Disadvantages: Cannot play PAL in colour eg some extreme sports DVD's or old movies
...also connect it to a Sony stack which would be like your hi-fi or something if you don't have a Sony hi-fi.
It is a scart unit also which is good because you do not have to tune it in or anything. (Make sure your TV or other appliance has an AV scart socket, most modern equipment does so you shouldn't have to worry)
There is no set up needed, just plug in and your away, the remote even comes with Sony batteries... you cant ask for much more than ... ...are setting up a surround sound system with it... instructions are easy to follow nevertheless.
DESIGN - I think it looks really good, plus it is very thin which means you can fit it into smaller spaces without having to deal with a huge DVD player with all the wires in the world. That's another thing, there's not a million wires to be worrying about. It looks modern and I think it comes in silver or black so take your pick.
FEATURES - it does ...

...movie. I contacted Sony about the issue, and their response was that since it was "SO FAR" beyond their warranty period (apparently 8 months is SO FAR beyond a reasonable life expectency for their lousy product) that there was nothing they could do. They were also uninterested in the additional complaints I cited on this and other consumer review sites ...

...yet another one of my Sony products that i've purchased!
It cost £120 which is not bad as sony dvd players can be pretty pricey. Its really good, completely idiot proof, even my girlfriend knows how to work it out without too much trouble!
Its really slim and no deeper than the height of a dvd case. It looks pretty slick, decked out in aluminium or something silver and its been really durable as i cart it everywhere. The only issue i have with ... ...sizes, tweak colours and anguages. Features are on the light side but other than playing dvd's, i don't use it for anything.

...internet, i came across the Sony DVP-NS330, it'smain attraction being the price tag at only £78.99. Personally I prefere most Sony products and in this case you do have to be prepared to pay a little over the average price for this type of dvd player, but you get the comfort that Sony are a reliable company and you likely to get a quality, value for money product.

This machine is able to produce high quality pictures, great sound and an overall enjoyable experience. Its slim line shape means it can be slotted into small places and out of the way, but is atractive enough to put on show as well. It also comes with a fancy remote control with various options and menu settings including, zoom and slow motion.

Advantages: picture and sound Disadvantages: slow menu transition
The Sony DVD-Players, that as a successor of the DVP-NS330 and 335 on the market comes can just as its predecessors convince.
The design differs hardly of the DVP-NS330 and fits therefore optimally to the SONY digitally-Receivern of the series of STR. The silberne execution sees at the same time simply more nobly out of the black whereby one should pay attention however naturally to the combination with the available devices.
The drive is comfortably soft, if also in the start somewhat slower than other Players. In the balance, the picture quality and sound quality is established then however to not to expect like of SONY differently, clearly over the means class and places full content.
With regard to operation, menu leadership and option selection is taken just as out of the full. With the remote control, also yet ...
