Today the video equipment market offers a huge selection of different models of hd-players, the price of which ranges from several thousand to several tens of thousands of rubles. To figure out which model is right for you, you need to decide on the set of functions that you want to see in your HD player.
Instructions
Step 1
The cost of an hd-player primarily depends on its filling. This concept includes the power of the processor and the size of the RAM installed in the player, the presence of a hard disk and a DVD drive in it, as well as the presence of additional functions, such as wireless Wi-Fi.
Step 2
If you buy an HD player just to watch videos in normal quality (the approximate resolution of such video files is 640x480 pixels, the size is from one and a half gigabytes), then almost any cheap model, the cost of which does not exceed three thousand rubles, will suit you. In such an HD player, of the additional functions, only the built-in DVD drive may be present, but you can be sure that the player will cope with its task perfectly.
Step 3
For someone who buys an hd player to watch high quality videos (in mkv, hd, hd-tv and others), a cheap player will not work: most likely, its capabilities simply will not be enough to watch hd video, which, in view of its heavy weight (one movie can weigh up to twenty gigabytes), it requires a powerful processor to play it correctly. In addition, the size of the flash drive on which you will record video may simply not be enough to record a full HD movie, so the hard disk must be built into the hd player, which will also increase its cost. Therefore, the cost of an HD player focused on viewing high quality video will be at least seven to ten thousand rubles.
Step 4
The cost of an hd-player can greatly increase if it has additional functions: Wi-Fi, non-standard connectors for video cameras and projectors, built-in speaker system and others. Therefore, when buying an HD player, limit yourself to a set of only those functions that you really need.
Step 5
When choosing an hd player, do not forget that the manufacturer of the hd player also plays a very important role. For example, a player from an unknown Chinese or Korean company may be several thousand rubles cheaper than its counterpart made, for example, by Sony or Samsung, but its reliability will be much lower.
