Pioneer DV-989 review

Oppo DV-980H review
First things first -- we love this DVD player for ignoring DVD region coding. But that isn't all it does: the Oppo DV-980H does just about everything else, too, including producing 1080p pictures. It may be expensive, but for what you're getting, it's great value and will be worth it for those who want to watch their DVDs in amazingly high quality Read more

LG DP391B review
LG's demurely named DP391B deserves a more conspicuous moniker -- it's easily one of the best portable DVD players we've ever seen. With a glorious screen, handy kickstand and tonnes of features, including DivX playback and photo display, it's just the thing for dull journeys Read more

Sony BDP-S500 review
The Sony BDP-S500 Blu-ray player is an excellent performer. Both standard definition and high definition material alike looks beautiful, providing scenes with sharpness and strong colour. Audio quality is also crisp, but does this player measure up to the PlayStation 3? Read more

Sony BDP-S370 review
We really can't complain about the Sony BDP-S370. It's cheap, but this Blu-ray player offers speedy disc-load times, excellent picture and sound quality, and decent codec support. It also provides great online features, such as access to BBC iPlayer Read more

Toshiba XD-E500 review
If you're looking to make the most of your DVD collection but you aren't up for a Blu-ray player, this Toshiba upscaling DVD player may be a good bet. Play with the three different upscaling modes to find your ideal picture, but watch out for some behavioural problems Read more
