Hands on: Panasonic DMP-BDT100 review

With the DMP-BDT100, Panasonic has extended its 3D Blu-ray proposition down to the mass market. While the the brand’s first player, the DMP-BDT300, was a highly-polished performance machine, this model not so much cuts corners as neatly bevels them.

Perhaps the first thing you need to know is that this player has been designed to work in an HDMI 1.4 environment. There’s no secondary HDMI output or analogue audio bank to deliver lossless audio into legacy equipment.

It’s been positioned at those who simply want to connect the player direct to a 3DTV; if buyers also hanker for lossless DTS-HD MA or Dolby TrueHD they’ll need to spring for a new AV receiver with HDMI v1.4, or take advantage of an all-in-one system with ARC (Audio Return Channel)

That makes viewing easy on the eyes and navigating the menus a breeze.

Samsung I9000 Galaxy S vs. Apple iPhone 4: Collision course

Introduction

It’s not like you’re out of options. Here’s one. Another one would be to get a friend’s iPhone 4 and another friend’s Galaxy S, put them on a table, close your eyes and… tell your friends to bugger off. Or you can do it the old-fashioned way. Flip a what?

Now seriously, do we need another iPhone vs. insert phone of choice thing? Well, do you need Retina display when it’s more than the human eye can see? Do you need a 4” Super AMOLED when 3.5” would’ve been just fine – and easier to handle?
