Sony DVD Player

Advantages: Durable and with great sound and picture quality.
Disadvantages: None come to mind.

...This Sony DVD player is incredible. This is without a doubt the best DVD player I have ever owned. It is attractive, sleek, and appealing. It is also very durable. When I first received it I dropped it accidentally and I thought it was broken for sure. It turns out it was just scuffed. So I took to my TV right away and hooked it up. It was great. It played all my DVD's and never overheated. I used it plenty of times and I still have it and it is still one of the smartest purchases I have ever made. If you have the chance and the money handy to pick up this product I would suggest you did. Hopefully you will have the same great experience as me except for the dropping it part well enjoy....

Review of Sony DVP-NS708HP

Sony DVP-NS38B - good cheap multiregion DVD player

Advantages: Cheap, Multiregion, Works well
Disadvantages: A bit complicated!

...When my trusty old DVD player finally died, I bought the Sony DVP-NS38 B as its replacement for approximately £60. My requirements for a DVD player were extremely basic: I wanted an entry level multi-region DVD player. So I headed off to my local Richer Sounds and had a look at the two or three that satisfied my requirements and didn't look too flimsy and picked the one that they happened to have in stock. According to the manual, as well as commercial DVDs, this model supports a variety of different formats: DVD-RW/-R, DVD+RW/+R/+R DL, Video CD, Music CD and CD-RW/-R. The DVD player is very thin, meaning that not many buttons or controls fit on it, and the LED display is very small and does not contain a lot of information. In terms of outputs - it has a digital audio coax and a SCART socket. On the front of the case there are...

Review of Sony DVP NS 38

DVD player for girls with a passion for fashion

Advantages: remote, nice design, portable
Disadvantages: battery pack is a bit bulky

...I am sure anyone with a similar aged daughter to mine (9 on Sunday) will have had exactly the same situation as me last Christmas. My daughter came to me with an Argos book in one hand and one hell of a shopping list in the other! When we added it all up, it came to about £700 (and she's good at maths so I think she was pushing things a little there!). We whittled it down a bit (!) and it still left her spoilt rotten. Now, I had really good intentions to stick at that list... but it didn't happen! Most of you will have seen the many Argos adverts prior to Christmas with the half price offers. I caught the end of one and saw this Bratz portable DVD player in the pile of toys shown on the advert so went online for a look. I had been considering buying it since my friend bought it her daughter for a birthday present and told me...

Review of Bratz Portable DVD Player

THE SONY RCD PLAYER.

Advantages: NICE FUNCTIONS AND DOES NOT CONFUSE WHEN IN USE.
Disadvantages: LACKS SOME VITAL FEATURES LIKE THE SHOCK PROOF.

...this do to it does not have enough techies too for a playing machine. In my own case, I like it for the multi CD player and with the comfortable mp3 playback feature. Well I will say that I prefer this do to its less sensitive nature unlike most of the DVDs that are too sensitive and not that user-friendly in terms of ease of use. Hardly develops fault on its own. I have a DVD machine that I even bought of recent but some times, gets faulty on hits own. Note this, most of these CD players does not even come with in built radios so should note that on time to avoid disappointment. This on the other hand produces fantastic sounds especially with all the HD ready televisions that have beautiful loud speakers. In my own case, I have one Sony HD ready TV so I am very comfortable with this particular player. I see this serving quite...

Review of Sony RCD-W 100

Sony DVP NS76H Upscaling DVD player

Advantages: Upscales exisiting movies, Much cheaper than a BluRay player
Disadvantages: Doesn't come with HDMI cable

...As some of you may know HD TV is here, along with HD DVD and BluRay formats. Due to both these DVD formats still being very new, the equipment is very expensive. So if you want to experience a better picture quality using just your old normal DVDs then this is what you need. The Sony DVPNS76HS, looks very much like just another DVD player. However it is capable of upscaling your existing DVDS to a level thats close to High Definition. Connecting this DVD through an HDMI connection will give you a much sharper image, remember however these are not true HD so dont try and compare the two. It is a region 2 DVD player which means you can only play discs that are from UK and Europe. It comes as standard with a remote control, 1 HDMI socket and 1 scart socket. It is also capable of playing back almost all DVD formats, as well as DIVX...

Sony BlueRay player BDP-350

Advantages: price, performance, design
Disadvantages: none comes to mind

...I got this BlueRay player free with my new full HD lcd tv which is also Sony, having already got a PS3 games console which has a BlueRay player built in, i was'nt sure if i needed it or not, how wrong i was its absolutely awsome, it looks great with the rest of my Sony equipment and it performs better than other BlueRay players i know of, Sony having invented BlueRay obviously know what to put in there equipment for it to perform so good and so reliable, if your watching Blueray for the first time you will be astonished by the clarity and depth of the film you are watching, i recommend you watch a film on normal dvd resolution then watch the same film on BlueRay and you will see the difference and you will also notice things you didnt see in the normal dvd, its that good! going back to the design it stands about 5cm thick and is...

Review of Glenn Tilbrook - One For The Road (DVD)

  DVD Player that can play DivX .avi files and more!

Advantages: Plays DivX AVI and MPEG files, Supports lots of formats, Looks good, Karaoke,
Disadvantages: DivX 3.11, 4.02 plays slightly slanted, cheap plasticy remote, Doesn't play some NTSC encoded files

...I've wanted a DVD player that was capable of playing DivX files for a while because of all my anime and por...errr....other video files..., but the players cost more than normal DVD players so resisted for a while. I've seen brands such as KISS and Yamada but later came across this DK Digital DVD-500 DivX DVD player after the prices have dropped. It only cost £41.98 (61.52 Euros) from SVP Communications (AKA Blank Disc Shop). -= The Player =- The player looks sleek with a black and silver design. Black at the front with silver at the top and bottom curving in towards each other at the middle, which I think looks really good. The player itself looks quite durable and the tray isn't flimsy like some I've seen. The LCD display shows the numbers in green and other details such as TRK, DVD, etc in red. I think it's very easy to read...

Review of DK Digital DVD-500 DivX DVD player

Sony recordable DVD player.

Advantages: Recording has never been so easy, with excellent picture and sound.quality.
Disadvantages: Cooling fan can be heard at times during operation.

...When my 13 year old Sony Video recorder stopped working, I decided to upgrade to a recordable DVD machine. Connecting the player to the TV was easy as all the sockets are clearly labelled along with clear instructions, At first swithch on, the player automatically sets itself up with little imput from the user and all the settings can be altered later if needs be. Playing a pre-recorded disc is the same as an ordinary player. Recording a program can be done in various ways. The easiest way is to use a digital TV with 'smart-link'. This works by choosing the program to record from a menu screen on the TV. You can use the numbers printed in TV guides which is very quick as well. It is also possible to do a manual program record. When used with a digital TV, if a program starts late, recording won't start until the new start time...

Review of Sony RDR-GX3

DVD's a Plenty!!!

Advantages: cheap, compact, great bargain
Disadvantages: none

...Woolworth?s Worth It DVD Player Well having completely given up on our Liteon DVD recorder which cost us a fair bit of money but was totally useless at recording anything let alone simply playing a DVD with ease we decided to get a new DVD player. It is usually me that buys these sorts of things and then I have to get my boyfriend to give me half the money. He doesn?t often like spending money without a lot of thought so we end up never really getting anything when he does the shopping!! However imagine my surprise when he walks through the front door holding a Woolworth?s bag containing a brand new DVD player, I really couldn?t believe my eyes! This DVD player from Woolworth?s only cost £19.99 pence and that I think is a total bargain. Looking in the Argos catalogue the cheaper ones in the book pretty much start...
