Product Description The BDP-S350 models support BonusView (picture-in-picture) featured on some of the Blu-ray Disc theatrical releases. The BDP-S350 models are BD-Live ready featuring an Ethernet port for an easy firmware update and access to Internet-based interactive content features. They also feature an external port for local storage, so users can add optional flash-based memory. The players feature 1080/60p and 24p True Cinema output. They are compatible with most standard DVDs and feature 1080p upscaling through an HDMI connection to capable HDTV sets, improving the picture performance of existing DVD libraries.The BDP-S350 models offer 7.1 channel Dolby TrueHD and Dolby digital plus decoding and bit-stream output, as well as dts-HD high resolution audio and master audio bit-stream output. The players support AVCHD discs encoded with x.v.Color (xvYCC) technology, an international standard for wide color space reproduction. The standard expands the current data range of video by about 1.8 times, allowing the players to output more natural and vivid colors similar to what the human eye can actually see. The players also feature compatibility with an array of video formats, including BD-R/RE (BDMV and BDAV modes), DVD+R/+RW, DVD-R/-RW (video mode), CD, CD-R/RW (CD-DA format), and JPEG on DVD/CD recordable media.

Very Nice! August 20, 2008 I am very pleased with this unit. This is my first Blu-Ray player but my experience with friends/family's older units were much slower to load. I must say that compared to my Sony upconverting DVD player connected to my Bravia W-Series 1080p set, HD/Blu-Ray is hardly any better. (that's how good the standard upconvert player is!!!) Sound is noticeably better. Great unit!

It is still too early to give a great review, but so far it has been very good. I need more time to be very accurate. Come back in 2 months and I will give a very accurate review.
Best Blu-Ray DVD Player To Date! August 16, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Sony has really done it right this time, when making a blu-ray player that has everything you would want from blu-ray, including upgrading your regular dvd's. To start with, the unit is very sleek and trim, and fits in easily with your television and various other boxes. This Sony BDP-S350 1080p blu-ray disc player loads faster than any other blu-ray player on the market right now. The price is fantastic, especially with Amazon's sale price right now! The picture for blu-ray is truly out of this world- beautiful vivid colors, crystal clear and sharp beyond belief! As far as the picture goes for upgrading your regular dvd's, it is superior also. I have to say though, that I have an Oppo upgrading player, that is almost as good as this Sony. So, there are also just as good upgrading dvd players out there as well, but certainly non better than this Sony. The set up was easy as well. I just plugged it in and attached a hi-speed HDMI cable to my 1080p lcd televsion, and after a fast set up menu, it was ready to go. I don't have separate speakers, so I did not have to set up other audio wires. Another great feature is you can set this up directly to your computer for upgrades. Sony could not have made this any better compared to what has been available on the market to this date. This is a great value, on sale right now and the ABSOLUTE BEST picture by far! 5 Stars for Sony!
excellent blu-ray player, but dvd upconversion not so great August 15, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As many other reviews (including professional ones) have described, this is one of the best blu-ray players available in this price range right now.
I don't have much to add to those reviews, but will make two quick points.
(1) If you have a Bravia tv, the player and the tv work together well (e.g., you can use the remotes to control both, can have the tv automatically turn on and switch to the BD player).
(2) If you play a regular dvd in this, you will get upconversion (electronic conversion of the 480p video to 1080p video), but I found that my Oppo 981 dvd player's upconversion was noticeably better (sharper & clearer picture).
So I'd definitely recommend this player for blu-ray, but you might want to hang on to your Oppo for playing your dvd collection.
Spectacular August 13, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
The Sony BDP-S350 is my first Blu-Ray player and it couldn't have been an easier setup. Plugged it in and it was immediately ready for action. The Blu-Ray discs look fantastic, as well as the upscaled DVD's. This is a great deal for any avid movie fan.
