Well worth the $300 (Sony will be the last company for Blu-ray players) ***Panasonic*** is more $$$ but not worth it People — myself included — want physical media without the reliance of the Internet "streaming" (unit lasts 5 years @ 12+ hrs daily) ***audio output with wifi & Bluetooth*** discs are user dependent (I'll have my library for 20+ years) Sony's hi-res audio is "surprising" eye-opening, above standards (es AVR makes sounds better) Image = upscaling to full color depth 4:4:4 with 12-bit (1080 standard — then — UHD 4k videos 10 > 12 bit ) - most dvds are 480 (converted to wide 16:9) - most Blu-ray 480/720 just better sound - few Blu-ray 1080 @ half color 4:2:0 10 bit (16:9 -or- 21:9 ratios) - majority of UHD is only 10-bit (upscaled to 12 bit) ***Doesn't apply anymore*** original UBPx800 support streaming services but not anymore (TVs took over streaming = Sony didn't want to pay to keep services @ don't update older APPS if you still want all services) _____ TVs will upscale the remaining 1080 to 4K (UHD is only 4k from the start) Build quality is above standards (long lasting drive, great heatsink, strong metal with 2x reinforcement assembly) ***better than x700 version***
