Sony BDP-S480 Pro Reviews

www.trustedreviews.com‘s review Edit

Forget about the BDP-S380 – the step up BDP-S480 only costs a little more but throws advanced features like 3D and DLNA into the mix. When married to its wide-ranging web content, slick operating system and terrific pictures, it makes the BDP-S480 a formidable budget Blu-ray proposition

The Panasonic TX-P50ST30b seems like a good deal for a 50-inch 3D HDTV, and it includes excellent wireless networking and Freeview capabilities, but the audio and video quality are both lacking.

TechRadar UK‘s review Edit

Picture quality from the BDP-S480 is predictably terrific. Blu-rays drip with fine detail and colour fidelity is gorgeous. The player is also a great choice for music fans, being the only model here able to play hi-res Super Audio CDs. This multichannel music playback is stunning, easily giving this player an audible edge over others.

By the standards of its price rivals, the S480 is an accomplished DVD upscaler. It isn’t immune to picture noise or shimmer, but it keeps these to a minimum and does good work with contrasts and textures. It’s far better as a Blu-ray player, of course. Up In The Air is lustrously presented, with detail to burn from the darkest scenes to the most glaring whites. Edges are stable, as is motion, and the ’S480 demonstrates a fine facility with natural skin-tones.

AVForums‘s review Edit

Whilst we don't feel the majority of users would have any issues with the BDP-S480's picture performance - in fact some may prefer the punchy gamma curve - we, at the same time, find it difficult to recommend a player that alters the content in such a way. Without the processing from Sony they would have had another great value, feature rich player on the market; instead of one that just misses the mark in a such an unnecessary way.
