what do you guys think of this blu-ray player?:
http://www.pioneer.eu/eur/products/42/84/222/BDP-150-K/page.html

it's currently available in various HT shops for around 8-9k. if ever I get one, I plan to use it for playing various media like audio cds, dvds, and blu-ray discs.

what do you guys think?

it seems like a better value than a standalone cd player or dvd player.

what features does the 450 have that the 150 doesn't? anyway, I think the BDP-150 is a good value!

Wildfire™ · « **Reply #4 on:** Oct 30, 2012 at 09:49 PM »

a lot actually, but bdp-150 is also good enough upgrade from a dvd player

Tavus · « **Reply #5 on:** Nov 02, 2012 at 10:56 AM »

both are made in china by TCL.
I find the usb support of the 150 much better. There are less slow downs on the 150 on large mkv files
but the 140 has no cinavia.

bdp 3110 is like the 150. the bdp 3110 has a track menu list.
I find them decent blu ray player.

Last year, when I was researching on BD players, I read that Pioneer BDPs are not made by Pioneer anymore but by Sharp. So I ended up buying a Panasonic instead. Ngayon pala TCL na?

yup there made in china by TCL. So far I'm please naman with my bdp140 players performance.

Btw yung bdp 3110 is finally P4990. Which is good, cause now we have a cheap blu ray player under 5k.

Just been to Listening Room Megamall yesterday and they could lower the price to PHP8000.00. Just be warned though that this is Cinavia compatible.

Pasoot · « **Reply #18 on:** Nov 24, 2012 at 11:46 PM »

Has anyone tested this if it's any good as far as sa price range nya? or do you recommend other BD players? planning to get one this Christmas season eh.

DTNS · « **Reply #19 on:** Nov 25, 2012 at 07:49 AM »

I haven't tested it. but it being a Pioneer, I'm pretty sure its good. just be warned though, that this blu-ray player is region-locked. $:-\$

Zhimiro · « **Reply #20 on:** Nov 25, 2012 at 09:34 AM »

planning to get this as well... same brand setup is pleasing to the eyes, maybe there is a hack to make it region free! wish ko lang?

barrister · « **Reply #21 on:** Dec 12, 2012 at 01:17 PM »

Nag-aalangan yata bumili ang mga posters ...

Has anyone bought the new Pioneer BD players?

Sabi sa forums, PQ is good, but build is low-quality. Startup is noisy. Drive is sometimes noisy during playback.

It's not the same Pioneer anymore, so it's hard to say whether the traditional quality of Pioneer's optical disc players is still there.

I had a BDP-320 before, problematic since new and nasira within weeks (mechanical noise and erratic stalling). Nakailangbalik sa service kesyo naayos na daw then paggamit ko sa bahay hindi pa. Pabalikbalik sa Automatic Centre until the servicer decided to replace the entire drive assembly. Umayos naman after that.

Thanks for the input sir Stagea.

I called SnS this afternoon:

Anong player ang available? --- Pioneer lang sir, 150 (P8,500) & 3110 (P4,990). 450 wala pa.
Mahina na ang benta ng BD players? --- Mahina na sir, puro media players ang gusto nila.
Merong Panasonic BD player? --- Matagal nang wala.
Walang stock o hindi na talaga nag release ang Panny Phil.? -- Hindi na talaga nag release, matagal na.

P4,990 na lang ang Pio BD player. Nakakaduda ang quality, parang CDR King Special na lang siguro ...

Panny Phil. wala nang BD. Panny Phil. ba naman, asa ka pa.

... puro wala? ... ang dami namang wala sa Panny Phil... kailan magsasara?

Mahina na raw talaga ang BD players. Laos na nga yata...

I had an LG BD550 din before. Mabilis siya magload kesa sa Cambridge Audio and Pioneer BDPs ko. Di naman ako nagkaproblema, medyo oversaturated lang yung colors and lesser ang noise reduction. I think Conan has the same model.

Check out Sony stores din, Atty. I think they carry the BDP-S190 and the BDP-S590 locally.

barrister · « **Reply #25 on:** Dec 16, 2012 at 12:16 AM »

They say the Sony 590 has slow load times.

Pioneer 150 and 450 have fast load times.

They say Pio 150 has poor build quality --- noisy, with quirky behavior.

As for the Pio 450, I think I'm going to like the Marvell Qdeo chip, and build quality might be better than the 150. I've been waiting for comments for the 450, but it looks like I'll be waiting for Godot, considering the dearth of interest in BD players these days.

Pioneer 150: A seller at the marketplace says it's DVD R3-locked.

http://www.pinoydvd.com/index.php/topic,173287.msg1786657.html#msg1786657

White market unit bought in the Phils., yet it's R3-only. That's so 1990s ...

emvi_2000 · « **Reply #27 on:** Dec 16, 2012 at 12:48 PM »

Yung Pioneer 3110 kaya may cinavia (I hope not)? Pwede rin kaya ma-hack for R1 DVDs?

emvi_2000 · « **Reply #28 on:** Dec 17, 2012 at 11:45 PM »

Tested the Pioneer 3110 at Western-Trinoma earlier and it played my R1 DVD...also the Sony...but the Philips/Samsung/LG BD players can't...although may Cinavia yata....?
