OPPO BDP-80 in Stock at Amazon
OPPO Digital, Inc. has released the BDP-80. The BDP-83’s little brother. Differences between the models include:
- Very good but not world-class upscaling of DVDs
- Downgraded 7.1 analog output
- Glow in the dark versus backlit remote
- Slightly smaller and lighter chassis
- Plastic (brushed) versus aluminum faceplate
OPPO has also recently introduced the BDP-83SE which has beefed up 7.1 analog output for $899. So now there are three models to choose from. You can easily base your decision on the following:
- If you want the best analog output possible purchase the BDP-83SE
- If you want the best DVD upscaling purchase the BDP-83 (or BDP-83SE if you want the upgraded analog output)
- If you want a very good player that out performs most other models on the market purchase the BDP-80
Blu-ray video and audio (via HDMI) will be virtually identical between all three models. In summary if you aren’t into Netflix and other Internet based streaming the BDP-80 at $289 is an out right bargain. With OPPO’s higher than industry’s quality players and commitment to ongoing support you can’t go wrong.

If you want world-class DVD upscaling the OPPO BDP-83 will be a better choice but it will set you back $499.
