Decent Player, Certainly Room for ImprovementStrengths: Plays Blu-Ray Discs, upconverts standard DVDs. Full 1080p output. Good array of audio outputs. Weakness: No Dolby TrueHD onboard decoding, no Ethernet port. SLOW LOAD TIMES. This player had promise--more reasonable price point, full 1080p Blu-Ray playback. However, this player is fraught with problems. The first thing you'll notice is the LONG LOAD TIMES. Blu-Ray Discs can take upwards of 2-3 minutes to reach the title screen, even after loading the latest firmware. While we're on the subject of firmware updates, the lack of an Ethernet port is completely...

The format war rages on...Strengths: Great picture and sound, lots of conectivity opotions. Weakness: none yet Truce! With the help of recent price drops I was able to grab this unit for just $256 at a local Military Exchange to go right along side my Toshiba HD-A3 (Black Friday $179) Now I have both formats for just over $400 not to mention 15 free High Def movies! In comparison to the HD-A3, the Sony player is way bigger and has more connectivity options, including a full set of 5.1 surround sound...

Sony BSD-300 Blu-Ray DVD playerStrengths: excellent picture Weakness: none Very good picture quality. I have it set up with a Pioneer 60" Kuro plasma TV along with a Yamaha receiver with JBL wall mount 7.1 speakers. The picture is impeccable along with the best sound I have ever heard.

Blu-Ray DVDStrengths: Easy to use. Great Picture.Rental places like Flixster send Blu-Ray discs out that have less use which means more reliable. Weakness: Not all DVD rentals are available in Blu-Ray format. I hope Blu-Ray wins the battle in the DVD market.The picture quality is exceptional. The response time on the eject system is a little slow. Great buy and value overall.

BDP-S300Strengths: Picture Quality Weakness: Power on Time, Boot up Time, Selection of Blu Ray titles, Price I held off purchasing this until the price was below $400. Amazon had a special with free shipping. Setup up was easy, just HDMI to TV, power cord, and left & right audio outputs to my surround sound. First movie was Pirates of the Caribbean, great detail however it was only marginally better than my Panasonic S52 upscaling DVD player. The biggest difference was the lack of blurring during fast...

Sony BDP-S300 Blu-Ray Player is just awesomeStrengths: Excellent picture and build quality. Excellent upconversion capabilities. Weakness: Long startup time (from powerup) and more than usual load time. I bought the Blu-Ray player to go with my new Sony 50" 1080p Rear-projection TV. I have watched about 4 blu-ray movies so far (Superman Returns, Open Season, Mission Impossible & Fugitive) and have been blown away by the picture clarity. I have watched the Fugitive about 5 times already but I was able to see little things that I never noticed before in a regular DVD. I also threw in couple of...

Finally, a Blu-ray Player Reasonably Priced!Strengths: Better price point, plays CDs, Dolby TrueHD Weakness: No memory for resume when unit turned off, slow loading, no remaining time display Sony has finally come out their second generation Blu-ray player at half the original price of the original! The BDP-S300 is priced at $499.00 which looks like a bargain compared to their previous BDP-S1 model. Besides the cost benefit, what else do you get with this player? Unlike the previous model the S300 can play CDs in addition to DVDs. This player has Dolby TrueHD capability installed. In...

Very good Blu-ray playerStrengths: Blu-ray picture quality, easy setup, well built machine Weakness: slow load time on Blu-ray Java titles, remote is not back lit, no HDMI cable included I received this player last week and hooked it up to my 40V2500 Sony Bravia LCD via HDMI. Setup was very quick and easy. Load times are similar to other HD players. Power up takes about thirty seconds and loading Blu-ray discs and DVDs takes about another thirty seconds. The load times on the two Pirates of the Caribbean Blu-ray discs took almost two minutes each and navigating through their...

SONY BDP-S300Strengths: Great picture when playing Blu ray Disk. Connected all audio connections at once except Coax, and all worked automatically...Great sound. Weakness: Sloooooooooooooow loooooaaaaad times, One Blu ray disk to 5 Minutes before i could start viewing. No ethernet connectivity,Pricey for what you get. Standard DVD's Looked Grainy. Beware of 5 Star ratings, Since they are usually posted by electronics sales people. I Purchased the Sony BDP-300 at a local retailer for $418.00 including tax, 3/13/2008, Returned it and got a full refund 3/17/2008. Load times are to much to bare, Local Video rental very limited in Blu-Ray selection. After having it for 4 days i couldn't bare dealing with it anymore. My opinion for a player this...

Sony BDP-S300
THE GOOD: Excellent picture quality on Blu-ray and DVD; DVD upconversion up to 1080p; HDMI output. THE BAD: 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. THE BOTTOM LINE: The BDP-S300 is a decent choice if youre limiting yourself to a relatively cheap, standard-design... Top

Sony Blu-Ray Disc Player (BDP-S300)
In the battle for next-generation movie supremacy both Blu-Ray and HD-DVD have entrenched themselves as a strong competitor. With the release of the BDP-S300 Sony is aiming to compete with one of HD-DVDs advantages: price. The previous standalone BR player from Sony was the high-end BDP-S1 which retails at close to $1000. The S300 offers all of the functionality of the S1 in a much smaller... Top

Great player-worked flawlessly from day one
Strengths: Great picture and excellent sound
Weakness: None for me
I bought this Blu-Ray player last July to watch movies and it has worked flawlessly for me from day 1. I am not a viewer who will use picture in picture (which this does not have)nor do I play any of the games which are on some of the discs. I wanted a Blu-Ray player which gives me full HD video and great sound. The audio sounds great on my surround sound system when I use it. Sometimes I just...
