Customer Ratings & Reviews

Both of our TVs have Sony Blu-ray players set up with them. We use them on a daily basis to watch movies whether they are in our work out room or our living room. Sony delivers flawless performance and we are very happy with these products.

Not the greatest, basically started malfunctioning after a week, had to take ot back and trade it in for a different one.

When I started using this player, I found out that when you select any sub-menu within the top DVD menu (like subtitles, audio, etc), the list of choices is not selectable, and the only button on remote that works is "Home" which brings you back to loading the disk

I had multiple issues with this Sony bluray player. When I was watching a movie it would just freeze for a bit then resume watching the movie, like the laser wasn't reading it correctly. This happened on different movies. Then it would auto-power off in like 15min. I could not find an option to turn auto power off. Stupid design not letting you change this option.

ai have not been able to have your tech hook it up for me to know how ir works

I'll admit, I had become THAT person. The one with shelves full of purchased Blu-Ray discs that sat gathering dust while I simply streamed movies when the urge to watch something came up. I'd rather stream a 4K movie than have to go grab that physical disk, thinking it was better quality (certainly it is, based on BR/DVD resolutions alone). Even though I had a few 4K discs in my collection, I didn't think there was much difference (and honestly, there wasn't- at least, not when I was using a game machine as my disc player). Then I had the opportunity to test this unit. I have to tell you- it is night and day. The HDR effects are SO much better when using the physical disc in this unit (when compared to my old setup of the game console, and especially so when compared to streamed content). Everything is so much smoother, which makes me feel that the frame rate is improved with the physical disc and/or the digital smoothing offered by this player, specifically. Even blu-ray movies, which are lower resolution than streamed 4K content and should be inferior on paper, are actually much more enjoyable- likely due to some fancy upscaling from the player. Audio is also much improved with this unit (Dolby Atmos is awesome!). I also had forgotten how much I enjoyed all of the extra features and menu options that come with using a physical disk, rather than streaming content. And, if you still do a lot of the latter, this player can be your one-stop-shop, as it does have access to all the usual suspects as far as streaming apps go, and all available in 4K (if your streaming app/sub supports it, of course). This can really simplify your A/V setup, particularly if you use a set-top box to access streaming services (I'm looking at you, Roku!). If I had a quibble- it is the lack of an RF remote. I keep my AV equipment in a closet with wiring behind the wall, which doesn't work with this current setup. I'm planning on getting an IR blaster that will use my phone as a remote, but the rest of my equipment is RF, so it would be great if this would allow that, as well. But, as I'm unaware of ANY physical disc players that offer that at the moment, that might just be something I have to live with. Overall, this is a great unit. It works with every disc I tried (including some old playoff hockey games I had burned to DVD-R years ago), was simple to hook up (including to wifi) and is quite compact. Once I can stow it away with the rest of my units, it will be perfect. I don't think you can go wrong with this one.

Mysteriously won't turn on today. I don't think we used it more than 10 times in last 14 months.

Worked fine for a couple months, but now it has problems playing any 4k disk. The image gets distorted and it starts buffering/skipping at the best parts of the movie for some reason.

AFTER DVD PLAYER WAS INSTALLED, I COULD NOT USE THIS UNIT. LOOKS LIKE THERE MAY BE SOMETHING MISSING HERE. I TRIED TO USE THIS UNIT BUT I WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL.

Had the player for 2 days and the first 2 movies I played on it which I bought brand new at the same time both skipped in 2 different parts of the movie. I bought it on Black Friday and thought they would have let me trade it in for a different unit and still get the sale price, but they would not work with me....

Dissapointed. I have a sony bravia core A80J, this 4k player wasn't giving the image picture I was hoping to get. Bravia core streaming movie has better picture and sound. For the record, I was using a high quality HDMI cable

I bought two of these sound bars. They both work OK, but it’s just a sound bar. Please see my other review titled “it’s just a sound bar.”

Man this player has been skipping so much on me, I returned a few movies thinking they were the issue but the player has been the issue. I tried to use a duster to blow off any possible Dust inside but it’s not Fixing the issue

The worst product I had to bring in a geek to pair it with my new Sony tv And the it geek fought for. 50 minutes to get it to pair

Still going strong and plays discs just fine but oddly it sometimes randomly turns on and switches the TV. The controls on top are annoying.

Had less than a month when began freezing on 4k discs. Went through all the fixes on the internet and Sony support. Nothing work! Then it had no audio output. Returned to Sony. Awaiting replacement. Hopefully new one will not have same issues…

Horrible product! Freezes constantly! Picture goes dim!

Was good, had it for 3 months and now when i turn it on the screen just goes black. Hate this dumb product

I've had two of these, and they both died within two years. They are great when they work, but they are a waste of money because they consistently fail.

I'm a little confused by the operation of this player, but a little surfing I got what I needed. The installer took away the boxes and the owners manual, I need that with the warrantee etc.
