Sony - UBPX700U 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Player - Black

I bought this 4k HD Blu-ray player to go with my new, 65" Sony Bravia OLED TV, and it works great! My wife and I are big movie fans, and especially old black and white films, and discovered the new 4k disks wouldn't play on my old Playstation 4. We decided to get a player rather than a Playstation 5, since I really don't game any more. At any rate, this is a great choice to pair with a Sony TV, and it handles the new 4k discs just fine, Even our older DVD's look better, although some of that may have to do with the new TV as well as the player, although Sony claims this player does make even older disks look better. At any rate, we've very happy with our new purchases!

This is a very nice unit, I had a few years old LG player that was having troubles with UHD discs, This one came highly recommended for a mid priced unit with no fanciness. What it does have is Dolby Vision, (No other unit in this. price range has) Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD High REs and Master Audio, not available on other units in price range. I was always told Panasonic was the best but I couldn't get over everything this had to offer. Picture looks great, Sound is great going to home theater and plays all discs no problem. It's a very basic player with no wifi or streaming etc.. (thing I would never use it for anyways) and I like that, Just want a great BluRay player. Problem I have is Best Buy hasn't updated their website for this 700U, the newest player, they have the previous 700 description, it doesn't have Wifi (or apps etc.. no streaming) I called their tech support and was told it does, hours trying to figure it out on my end going back and forth with Best Buy to realize they have the description of the previous unit have. Great player, terrible web and then tech support that kept telling me to do things that the player doesn't offer and told me to exchange it. I didnt exchange it, so the 4 star rating isnt for unit its for Best Buy. Until gets 5 Stars.

I love this 4k player. It’s exactly what I needed. Small, quick responses, excellent picture quality! Sony does it again!

I like the 4K upscaling feature for my 1080p blu-ray collection. The picture quality is really nifty even from an FHD source. Audio quality is very good for those with the proper equipment for high quality audio playback. The setup was easy to get it running, although I wish it had built in wireless WiFi to update the firmware to the latest version, but running the unit via Ethernet cable is better sometimes.

Old School is still cool. He was so excited on Christmas day. He thought we were not listening to him. He could now watch his videos and enjoy the movies without having to pay to watch.
