Blu-ray players

Its first universal Blu-ray Disc player was


the BDP-83.[21][22][23][24]

The BDP-93 was released in 2010,


featuring 3D compatibility and dual HDMI
signal output. This was followed by the
BDP-95 whose video performance is
identical in all respects with the BDP-93,
but with an improved analogue audio
output section.[25] The BDP-103 and BDP-
105 models were released near the end of
2012, featuring dual HDMI signal input in
addition to dual HDMI signal output. The
BDP-103D was released in October 2013.
This new model is the first Blu-ray player
worldwide featuring Darbee Visual
Presence technology.

At the end of 2016 Oppo introduced their


first 4K/UHD BluRay player, the 203.
Backwards compatible (as with previous
machines), the 203 supports playback of
Ultra High Definition discs, along with HDR
(high dynamic range) and Dolby Vision
capability.

This was followed in 2017 by the 205 -


similar to the 203 but, as with previous "5"
designated players, had added audiophile
features.
Headphones & amplifiers

In 2014 OPPO released a number of high


end headphones and amplifiers. The
flagship PM-1 and PM-2 headphones
along with the HA-1 desktop amplifier have
been heavily promoted in the audio
community. One blogger declares the PM-
2 is "near to perfect".[26] The company has
since released other products.

Also released in 2015 was the HA-2, a


portable version of the HA-1 amp/DAC
which features a battery pack option as
well as a stitched leather casing. The
phone plays music in real-time to the HA-2
(via included Android or iOS micro USB
cable, or USB cable if from PC). It also can
be charged using an included "rapid
charger" charging kit. Its battery pack
feature can be used simultaneously while
the HA-2 is used to play music if the
playing (source) device is an Apple iOS
device, though for those using an Android
or Windows phone, it's only either/or. In
October 2016 an updated version was
released with a new DAC chip and now
named HA-2SE. Otherwise the same as
the HA-2
