While the CES 2011 has seen plenty of announcements from Microsoft, Sony has also put a smile on its fans’ faces by announcing its brand new range of Blu-ray players and the latest home cinema systems for release in 2011. For your information, the newly announced Blu-ray players include: BDP-S380, BDP-S480 and BDP-S580. Also, four new home cinema systems that were made part of this announcement are: BDV-E280, BDV-E380, BDV-E880 and BDV-E780W. BDP-580 is equipped with Blu-Ray support as well as Wi-Fi connectivity. On the contrary, BDP-S380 comes equipped with Wi-Fi but lacks 3D Blu-Ray support whereas the BDP-480 is geared with 3D Blu-Ray support and misses on the Wi-Fi capabilities.
Speaking of the Home Cinema Systems that Sony has been privileged to have introduced, the internet-ready BDV 780W comes with desktop speakers and offers 3D surround sound. On the other hand, BDV-E880 is powered with 3D-surround sound aided by dual tallboy speakers and features two HDMI ports also. The E380 brings in 3D surround sound and lacks the dual tallboys whereas the 3D surround sound is absent in the E280.
According to Sony, “New Blu-ray Disc players and Home Cinema systems from Sony will redefine the way you experience home entertainment.”
