Philips BDP3000 Blu-ray Player

Shortlist the Philips BDP3000 Blu-ray player if you rank performance, design and value higher than features.

Philips BDP3000 review

Philips' Blu-ray player is a good value deck that excels with HD movies

Connects to broadband instantly ; High detail ; Excellent onscreen menus

Some judder ; BD Live needs USB stick ; No playback from USB port

Similarly priced machines just outgun it on features, but this good value deck triumphs on pure high-definition detail

Philips BDP3000 review

The Philips BDP-3000 Blu-ray player has a decent picture and lively sound – all at a tantalisingly affordable price

Ultra-competitive price ; intuitive interface and smart design ; detailed, lively sound and decent picture

No DTS-HD decoding ; not as sharp or subtle as rivals ; sound lacks solidity

A solid performer at a tantalisingly affordable price

Philips BDP3000 Blu-ray player

There's been a lot of rubbish talked about Blu-ray's slow growth. Probably as a reaction to the hyperbole from the format's promoters, its success has been downplayed; the truth is, Blu-ray is more than grazing our interest in the UK. Despite excellent...

BD-Live, DivX playback, excellent value pictures, good upscaling

No media USB port, external memory stick needed for BD-Live

Despite excellent build quality, cool minimalist styling and a simple approach to onscreen menus and fast disc playback, it’s this deck’s excellent value pictures that should give it a wide appeal, despite the slightly cumbersome BD-Live arrangement.

Philips BDP3000

Philip\'s latest Blu-ray player, the BDP3000, is reasonably priced and looks good. With all the HD bases covered it\'s a great entry-level device.

Sleek looks and full compliment of connectivity options.

No DivX or MP3 playback via USB.

Philips BDP3000 Blu-ray disc player

Easy to set up and use but hardly the cheapest nor the most versatile Blu-ray player around.

The BDP3000 is a solidly built Blu-ray, DVD and CD media player that performs extremely well. It also provides a decent range of video-out and audio-out ports, plus an Ethernet connection. It is not an all-round media player, though: there is no...

Consumer review (play.com)

brilliant player

Bought this player from ElectricalDeals and it was delivered the next day. The reason i went for this was because of the price. I don't need top of the range player just something that does what it says on the box. Only downside is the remote is not as...

Consumer review (comet.co.uk)

Very Good at this price

Very good out of the box and almost instant play. Did have to up grade software/down loaded onto a memory stick. Make sure you open the zip file and plug in. Done. Up-scale is brill and almost as good as Blu Ray disks and no need to buy repeat buy disks.

easy to use, cheap entry blu ray but very good for price

does need software upgrade from box, needs memory stick
