Customer Ratings & Reviews

Easy to set up and use. Great picture and sound. The included high speed HDMI wire is an extra nice bonus.

Had to replace a Sony bdp s6700. The 4K is incredible on this ubp-x700! Easy to hook up. The sound is awesome. The x-700 is a must buy!

Love it! Was so annoyed with my LG 4K Ultra player that I spent the money for this Sony. Glad I did. One great feature of home movie viewing is Pause. Sometimes it's for a bathroom break or popcorn popping or to check the game score. Generally during pause I switch source back to TV. This works fine with every player I have ever owned. Not the LG. It exits the movie and returns the the players main menu. Forcing you to reboot the disc and try to find where you left off. So I'm happy again. I can pause the movie, change source and take a break to check the score and return to the movie where I left off. And of course 4K Ultra picture looks great with my 4K TV. It's a Sony! Never had one that didn't work.

Sony comes through again for us. Intuitive with a quick response time. Great all around quality, with all the features we will ever need. The number of A/V playback formats is more than respectable, it includes SACD. We are very happy with this purchase. The Sony UBP-X700/M Blue Ray player is quite impressive at its price point, since we are on a budget over here that is always appreciated! Thank you Best Buy and Sony

Great 4K Blu-ray player. Good picture/sound. Haven’t noticed any noise while playing, and no skipping either. Only downside is that to play Dolby Vision, you have to manually switch in the options/settings. Not a deal-breaker for me, but it is clunky (this was added as an update after the fact), but for the price this is still a solid overall package. Plus it’s the only one that checks most of those boxes while still being smaller, as other competing players have a larger footprint, which may affect where you can place it on your entertainment stand.

I bought this player over Black Friday for $100 off thinking it was a great deal. And to be fair, in many ways it is. Alas, the old saying “you get what you pay for” seems mildly relevant here. This player gets a lot right, when it’s working the way it’s supposed to. It’s visuals and sound are great, and it’s super easy to use. Unfortunately, the problems this player struggles with, namely the freezing issue that has plagued this model since the beginning, offset all of its good features. At first, the fact that it would just freeze completely in the middle of a movie was something of a joke. “It’s not a bug, it’s a feature”, just Sony giving me a set intermission in most of my movies. However, the humor ran dry pretty quickly and the fact that it required a full reset before being able to continue the movie I was watching became too much of an inconvenience. If Sony can figure out how to rectify this problem, then this player may someday be a great choice for those who don’t want an expensive 4K player. At this point in time, however, this player will be headed back to the store and I’ll be looking someplace other than Sony for my 4K UHD needs.

A solid performer all around. Connects easily to my receiver and the performance has been flawless. They are pretty cheap these days, so I would pick one up-it's super for any 4K disks and does an amazing job with blue rays disks as well.

I have the Sony - UBP-X800M2 - Streaming 4K Ultra HD Hi-Res Audio Wi-Fi Built-In Blu-Ray Player for my family room. BUT I bought the UBP-X700 for the basement exercise area. Not rich, all cement down there; Super impressed. I can now use my entire DVD collection with upscaling, Blu rays, and 4K. The workout area has an older LED TV, and everything works great. I will never have time to look at my older video collection, so I picked this to watch when I work out, and look at some old favorites. If this is your first 4K you will love it, and the streaming is top notch. I use it with Nvidia and that works very well.

Upgraded to a Atmos-capable soundbar, so I needed to upgrade to trusty old blurry player to a 4k to get the most out of the soundbar. This was an easy choice since the old bluray was a Sony as well. Easy switch. Great video and sound quality. Easy to use. There are costlier machines with other features...but this one works just fine.

I want to start by saying that shipping was incredibly quick; just in time for Christmas. The quality of the player was amazing! I watched blu-ray discs that I had watched on my old blu-ray player, and the difference was clear. I was able to see details that I never could on the last player. I also bought 4k discs which were a whole new experience. I know most TVs these days are smart, but one thing I noticed was that this player also has apps such as Netflix installed.

Was excited to get this after seeing it at the top of the lists on forums. I knew about manually toggling Dolby Vision and was ok with that. I have a 65" LG C1 and I wanted it mainly for Dolby Vision, as the Series X doesn't support it for physical Blu-ray discs. I played a brand new disc, Fury Road, and the colors are blown out and oversaturated. Flames lacked any details, just a bright orange mess. You can adjust the picture settings, but it shouldn't be this bad out of the box. After 25 minutes, it froze up and had to be unplugged. Unacceptable. I've never had a $50 dvd player do that and my game cosoles haven't, either. What a waste of time. Returned. I'll wait until a good player is priced less than a modern gaming console.

Buy it. Picture is great. Easy to set up. Small size which fits easily.

The Sony Blu-Ray Player was highly rated and after buying it, I knew why. It works well and provides me a way to watch and listen to DVDs and CDs. It was easy to set up with my TV and does stream 4K.

Works fantastic with my older Vizio TV. Good visual clarity on 4k, upscaling Blu-Ray looks fantastic, and sound comes through great. Setup was very easy.

This is a great player! The quality is amazing! An affordable Dolby Vision player! The remote is small and easy to use, no need for all those extra buttons nobody uses, and the player is lightweight. Okay, now here is the reason why I gave it 4 stars and not 5 stars, it does not automatically turn on Dolby Vision!!!! I was fuming when this happened, I thought it was the TV,. but after awhile of researching I found out that you have to go into the "setup" option and turn it on! Why? Really Sony? This should be automatic! So after turning it on, it worked! I got Dolby Vision compatible movies playing perfectly, on my TCL TV.

Works well. Was looking for one with HDMI and this one worked well. I haven’t used any of the Wi-Fi connectivity as I really have no need for it so I can’t speak to that. It starts up as soon as I put the DVD in and the colors are good but that could also be the Sony TV. It is much smaller and lighter than my last DVD player. It hasn’t refused any DVD’s, even playing ones I recorded myself.

Paired with LG OLED tv,plying old movies from 2006 the pictue quality and sound are beyond my expectations.very happy with my purchase, easy to set up and once plugged in pairs to the LG magic remote

This is a unit of solid construction. Blu-ray and 4K UHD discs look wonderful through the unit. Having watched the 4K UHD disc and compared it to portions of the accompanying bru-ray of identical content, I can't say that the 4K UHD picture was noticeably different to my eye. But I will keep the unit, because a one-to-one comparison of picture quality isn't possible, and the specifications definitely favor 4K UHD over blu-ray. Description of how to use the remote would be helpful. I discovered the slow-motion function only by accident. Additional remote functions would be useful also.

Bought this for my neighbor because their tv had Dolby Vision (referred by the kids as "DV"). I'd heard about some of the glitching that some of models in the x700 and x700/m have. Sure enough, I had to enable and re-enable DV at times because the picture would start to get tingy. Discs would pause and get stuck randomly at times. I do not remember if it was 4k or bluray content--- at the point I had to enable and re-enable DV I already wanted to take it back lol. Other then it being glitchy (Sony does not fully rectify theses issues over the years).. it is actually a great player. This and the Panasonic DP-UB420 have gone on sale for $150 every couple of months since 2021. The Panasonic is the better choice overall. I wouldn't pay more than $150 for it, though. If you have a Projector screen then there is no better choice at this price point than the Panasonic DP-UB420. Just be cautious if you buy this Sony model. Buy it on sale only and pay attention to your Retailers warranty/return policy. If you love Sony, buy an extended warranty... may be one day that Sony will fix these issues in a firmware update. If not you'll be covered for sure under extended warranty, if not Sony's. Because, really, this player would be great if it wasn't (so..could..be..glitchy) prone to glitch. That's why I'll never buy another Sony product without thoroughly reasearching it.

I purchased this Sony blu-ray player because my Panasonic Blue-Ray player door would not open one day it just quit working. So I bought this Sony Blu-ray player. So far so good. Easy to set up and good picture.
