Compact, 4K with WiFi, great picture. Best player for the money!

Non stop perfect , this is our 2nd unit and soon a third. I had read several bad reviews about this unit so i got the extended warranty, but so far no problems so no need , and it really picks up the faintest signals and turns it into very high quality video. Extremely easy to set up.

Upon receiving the Sony UBP-X700 I was first surprised by the size of the box. This is a smaller player measuring 12.6 by 8.5 inches and weighing in at 3.1 pounds. Inside the box one finds the player, a remote control, batteries and the usual manuals. Unfortunately there is no HDMI cable included. Regardless of size the specifications reveal a full featured 4K Blu-ray player. First of all this baby supports nearly every imaginable disc, video and audio format that there is. Most notable for video you get HDR10 and Dolby Vision support and for audio the player supports Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. You can’t beat that. With the UBP-X700 you’re not only future proof with these state of the art features, you’re also covered for your older discs because this player is of course backward compatible with regular DVDs and Blu-ray. It also breathes new life into your older 1080p content by upscaling it to 4K. Plus it does 3D, Miracast, and includes an arsenal of streaming apps. With all this in mind I was looking forward to seeing the player in action. I tend to not read setup instructions so I forged ahead by hooking it up to my TV and powering it on. Please note there are two HDMI out ports on the rear of the unit. One port supports video and audio while the second port is only for audio. I was happy to discover that the UBP-X700 has an onscreen setup which first prompts you to enter your Wi-Fi password so it can connect to the internet. You can also connect the player via ethernet cable to the port on the rear. After connecting Wi-Fi the setup then checked for any updates. It downloaded and installed them quickly and I was up and running. I first turned my attention to the menu of streaming apps. I was happy to find the most important ones present including Amazon, YouTube, Netflix, Vudu, Hulu, and Crackle. For audio streaming you also get Pandora, Spotify, and Sirius XM. I’m hopeful that other apps are added in the future. I next ran the player through its paces with some 4K streams from both Amazon and YouTube. The 4K video was incredible with absolutely no lag or stutter. The player helps matters here by supporting MIMO Wi-Fi technology. I next had to try a 4K UltraHD Blu-ray. I thought Mad Max Fury Road would be a great test disc. I was not disappointed. I had viewed this movie many times but now it was new again. The UBP-X700 made my HDR compatible TV look better than I had previously ever experienced. With HDR my TV's contrast ratio and color reproduction were astonishingly more realistic. I was sold. My TV unfortunately doesn’t support Dolby Vision and my audio equipment doesn’t support Dolby Atmos. No doubt these would take the 4K viewing experience to even a more incredible level. I can’t say that I’m too upset about this player giving me a great excuse to upgrade my other home theater components. I can’t say I have any complaints about the player. I would have liked an HDMI cable to be included and perhaps a nicer remote but in terms of overall quality the Sony UBP-X700 is a solid full featured 4K Blu-ray player. Highly recommended.

Was able to get the on sale. I was worried how it would work with a different brand TV and another different brand sound bar. There was no worries everything worked well together. The 4K is wonderful, it also plays blue ray and also standard DVD with no problems. Set up was easy.

black friday deal plays blu-rays in 4k. great picture not much different than1080p. it was a good price

Great blu ray player & just what I needed, great price with the black Friday sale. While researching brands & models I'd seen this one was able to use for HBO Max but haven't figured out how to add that yet. Everything else is exactly what I was looking for & simple to use for all apps.

Easy to set up and use. Great picture quality w/ my LG 4K TV!

Very good,..........,.................... recommended...

easy to use, great picture, good value for the price

I bought this and I also bought an LG for right around the same price and this is a much nicer unit. The video death in the scaling is much better then the comprable LG model. my comparison was Black panther when they were in the cave at the end you could actually see the different shades of the cave versus the LG all you saw was gray.

Very simple to use and puts out great picture/audio quality

Great 4K UHD BluRay player for a very reasonable price.

I have had many types of DVD player and Blu Ray player, but when I bought Sony Blu Ray player I never had a problem with it at all,so when I wanted to up graded to a 4k player I bought Sony I have not any problem since I bought this player I rememaned this player to anyone looking for a 4k player

Unit works great. 4K very clear. Only problem is the Netflix app. On other brands it works fine but on this player it is very slow and to go from previewing one trailer to another it goes blank for a couple of seconds. It becomes excruciating after a while. Best to watch Netflix on a different device especially when previewing to determine what to watch.

Its wifi it's small works great, nice price, easy to use

I bought this DVD player six weeks ago and, to date, it has performed flawlessly. I have not experienced any of the difficulties noted in other reviews of this produce. Color and sound has duplicated that of the movies we have seen in the theater. My only difficulty is that Best Buy has not yet recognized this purchase to my account.

Easy to use, great picture, quick plug and play set up.

Good picture, easy to use and set up! Will buy another one

I love how Dolby Vision looks on this 4K player. Great buy.

Very good 4K DVD player for my LG OLED TV. Does a great job of upscaling streaming channels in 4K.
