Panasonic DMR-BW880 review

The DMR-BW880 recorder offers dual Freeview HD tuners, a 500GB hard drive, and the ability to play and record to DVDs and Blu-ray discs. You'll have to sell a major organ to afford it, but it's a cracking piece of kit that is highly unlikely to disappoint you Read more

Sony BDP-S570 review

The Sony BDP-S570 is probably the best all-round Blu-ray player yet. Not only does it rock with Blu-ray discs and SACDs, it blows the doors off the brave new world of TV streaming. Having BBC iPlayer on tap is a huge attraction, and if you have media files on USB, this deck will do its utmost to play them. For the cash, you just can't carp. Read more

Sony BDP-S350 review

Fairly priced and feature-packed, the Sony BDP-S350 has overtaken the PlayStation 3 as the cheapest and most competent Blu-ray player on the market. Besides the fact that Sony took so long to get it on the market, we don't really have any complaints about this player at all Read more

Panasonic DMP-BD35 review

Quite simply, this is one of the most sensibly priced and best-performing Blu-ray players on the market. With the BD35, Panasonic is proving that stand-alone players can offer decent performance and other advantages such as lower power consumption, nearly silent operation and a much more sensible form factor Read more

Pioneer DV-989 review

With DVD players available for as little as £20, the £750 tag on Pioneer's flagship DV-989 is certain to raise eyebrows. But if you're an avid enthusiast with a high-end TV and sound system there are few players better equipped for premier performance Read more

LG BD370 review

The reasonably priced BD370 is one of the best-looking and best-specified Blu-ray players on the market, offering excellent media-playback capability and great image quality. It lacks analogue 7.1 audio outputs but, apart from that, we love every aspect of this machine Read more

Philips BDP7500 review

The BDP7500 is slightly more expensive than many Blu-ray players currently on the market, but it's an impressive machine that's worth the extra outlay. It offers speedy disc-load times, excellent picture quality and can play back downloaded Internet video in a variety of popular codecs. It looks great too Read more

Samsung BD-P1000 review

Samsung's BD-P1000 is the first Blu-ray player to arrive in the UK and claims to revolutionise your viewing by displaying high-definition content in the latest 1080p standard. The image quality is undeniably impressive -- the best we've ever seen -- but only rich enthusiasts will stomach the price tag Read more

Cambridge Audio Azur 751BD review

The Cambridge Audio Azur 751BD is a 3D-ready Blu-ray player aimed at audiophiles. It sounds heavenly with pretty much any disc you feed it, but it also delivers fabulous hi-def video and can stream almost every type of media via a LAN or from USB. It's undeniably fine, but expensive. Read more
