Customer Ratings & Reviews

Excellent player would highly recommend upscale regular blu Ray's and plays 4k disks like a champ. Highly recommend this unit. Make sure you get the high end 4k HDMI cables that will make this look just incredible with your high end 4k disks Sony is a champ

Always been a Samsung buyer but this is by far the best 4k player on the market

So I purchased this to go along with my 4K TV in hopes of having a better TV, streaming an movie experience. The video quality is great, the streaming and disc. The only issues that I seem to have , when using my apps like Netflix there is a crash or the app will not open. I have to disconnect my player and in some cases reset my device. With Amazon there seems to be a slight delay but that usually resolves itself so I can live with that. However my final issue, this is completely random, when playing a blue-ray or 4K disc the device will just shut down and return to the home screen. I have done all my updates but this is still a bad issue to have. My last 4K player (different brand) did the same thing but I did not buy the additional warranty and I ended up throwing it in the trash because I was having such an issue with playing discs.

I needed a replacement universal player ,my old oppo finally died,but i wasn't expecting such an upgrade in sound quality, especially the sacd format, mindboggling!the fact that i got it 120 balloons below retail secured the deal. Couldn't be happier, thanx!

This is really good for 4k and blue ray. easy to use and setup. Regular DVDs upscale VERY clearly. However, I am getting weird digital glitches on standard DVDs only. I may need to exchange it. Also, I want to stream lossless audio from my local server thru this and I suspect it can't handle the bandwidth because it stutters constantly. So if you want 4k and BluRay use only, this is 5 star.

the user platform is easy to use and program. Allows you to watch a disk or stream. Picture is absolutely fantastic!! Purchased as an open box item (which I saved a lot of cash) so it came without a remote. the Sony TV remote I have works some of the functions, but not all... had to order a remote to go with it.

I was looking for a player that could also handle SACD and DVD-Audio, as i have a large collection of both . Most of the players on the market that play those formats are high dollar items that cost big bucks. The player was affordable at the MSRP, but Best Buy had it for $100 off, which made it a steal. This thing Will play just about anything you throw at it/in it, every high res files, and they all sound great . Plus it handles all the latest video formats, as well as Atmos surround sound. It has the usual apps like Netflix, Pandora, etc. Picture quality is superb. If you need a player that will tackle just about any format and sound/look great will doing it ,the Sony - UBP-UX80 - Streaming 4K Ultra HD Wi-Fi Built-In Blu-Ray Player is a most versatile unit that will get the job done in excellent fashion

The audio quality is exceptional. I couldn't believe how amazing this thing sounds compared to my old Blu_Ray player. I have it hooked up to a Pioneer VSX-1124-K receiver and Boston Acoustics VR 960's and movies sound exceptional. Good example. Watching the opening crawl sequence of Star Wars: A New Hope, I was hearing individual instruments I had never heard before. Totally worth the money for that alone! The picture quality is fantastic as well. Very good color and clarity. The player also syncs seamlessly with my Sony tv. A nice added bonus.

While most everyone knows that 4K brings stunning imagery to the screen, what I have been most impressed with is this players upstaging abilities from Blu-ray and catching it at almost half price didn’t hurt either.

I had no idea how good a movie can sound at home until I played a 4K disc on this player! Top quality at an affordable price. Highly recommend this player!

I got it because it was in the Magnolia section, and was the cheapest thing there so I could say that my whole entertainment center is Magnolia. Samsung QLED, Klispch RSB-6 and now the UBP-UX80. It was on sale for like $199. Sometimes you have to eject and reinsert Disney blu-rays because for whatever reason, the don't read them correctly the first time. But this only happens with Disney blu-rays. Other than that, it's worked just fine. I've had it over a year and there haven't been any new firmware or software updates since the initial one after I bought it.

Love my new Sony 4K DVD, CD, Blu-ray, play anything machine. Really a nice upgrade to my set up and found it at a great price too.

Most of my set up consists of Samsung units but Samsung went and lost their mind by designing their blu ray players with a curve and that was an automatic no buy from me and glad it was. The Sony UBP-UX80 is built like a tank and looks great in my home theater setup. Have watched 2 4K blu rays so far and one regular blu ray and it had absolutely no issues with either. What I do recommend is that once you get it, make sure you do the updates and then reset everything to factory and start from scratch with the new update applied. Also, disable the network features if you’re not going to use them as that will free up the player to focus on what it was meant to do and that is to play blu ray discs. Overall, very happy and would definitely recommend this to friends.

So far this has done all I've hoped for and a bit more. Great picture quality and easy to use. Also great features for accessing Netflix and amazon movies

The player is very easy to setup and plays both blueray and dvds. The picture quality is great. Paired with a Sony 4k tv and we are really enjoying everything we play on it.

Top quality 4K player. Plays 4k, Blu-ray and regular DVD flawlessly. Streams multiple internet apps. Picture quality vivid and crisp.

Wireless is not linking up for some reason but thats ok , i have firestick. 4k movies look great and the sound quality is even better with the magnolia series.

Easy to set-up. A number of outputs for various surround sound systems. Better than the newer, lighter one, that ‘replaced’ this model.

This DVD player has exceptional sound and of course Video capability. One of the few players I have been able to send some basic control commands over HDMI from my Amp/Receiver that has a Phone App Controller which greatly simplifies life. Dolby Atmos is amazing if you have the ability to connect those speakers to your Amp/Receiver. Unfortunately we are moving to streaming most content now where the audio flatly sucks in most cases.

1st the good. Works great with bluray/dvd. Very quick from power to ready. Very quick from inserting disk to ready to play. Shows DVD as 480P. Previous bluray player (8 year old phillips) only did 480i. For both the disk spinning noise is inaudible. The not so good. Some DVD aspect ratios are not detected properly. Star Trek DS9 displays incorrect as 16:9. Star Trek Voyager correct as 4:3. Stargate SG1 shows correct as 16:9. BtVS also correct 4:3. 4K blurays are a bit noisy. I've only got 2 4K blurays. Last Jedi and Cocco. The disk spinning noise is audible for both. I've had 3 other 4K bluray players. 2 LG's (don't recall models but they were under $100) and a Sony ubp-700. All were much noisier. Each was returned. This players noise was tolerable and as the movies progresses the disk noise diminishes significantly. I'd give it 5 if the 4k was silent. If it were a bluray only player Id give it 5 (thought a bit pricey).
