Customer Ratings & Reviews

Best 4K player I have to date and the first player that I own with Dolby Vision available. Works great with my LG TV.

Have had several Sony players over the years. They have all done a great job & this is no exception. Upgraded to Sony 4K player from an unreliable Phillips. Sony's was easy to install, easy to use & gives a great picture. Also upgrades new software - you guessed it - easy! Recommended.

I chose this over the less expensive Sony UBP-X700 for the build quality. This player is built like a tank - metal case and full-rack length. It's pretty heavy. I expected that the solid housing would mean quieter playback and wasn't disappointed. 4K UHD discs can spin fast but I haven't noticed any sound other than when exiting main menu to movie playback. No front display but I have player in a closed media stand with louvered doors. As a 2019 Sony OLED owner, I usually leave the player in Bravia mode - which allows the TV's processing to do it's thing. Only reason I docked the player one star was the need to enter settings to manually enable Dolby Vision decoding for discs that support it. You have to remember to disable it after watching DV content to avoid applying DV processing to HDR10 discs. From what I've read, Panasonic & LG players do this automatically.

Wow this DVD player works better than our last one. Easy to use and hook up. Video is clear.

This has been great: it was a gift for my boyfriend and he loves it!

Fantastic build quality - at home in a Home Theater rack mount, or on a shelf in a console. My only complaint is that for 100% stability during playback of 4k movies, you can NOT be connected to any network. There is some issue - either due to heat or firmware instability - where if you have any networking enabled (wired or wireless) you will experience playback issues with 4k discs (the whole point of owning this device. Once you disable networking, which shouldn't be an issue if you're buying a disc player in 2020, you will be treated to a fantastic playback experience. I love how quiet this player is and how many different formats it is compatible with.

Works great! Only issue is that I wish it automatically detected Dolby Vision.

4K video player is very easy to use and videos look amazing. 4K UHD discs look fantastic of course, but even Blueray and DVD discs look amazing. The player does a fantastic job of upscaling to 4K. Older Bluerays and DVDs look better than ever.

I was thinking between Panasonic ub8 series and this one, ended up buying this one. Satisfied with play quality, audio quality, time to load the disc. One time it got stuck in close to 2 months usage. Overall happy with the purchase

I loved the Sony ubp x800 and this upgraded version is even better. Great 3D..great picture..and the added bonus of being able to listen through the TV speakers and bluetooth headphones at the same time was a seller for me. The other was Dolby Vision..I highly recommend this player.

Its interface is somewhat outdated, and it lacks Dolby Vision on initial firmware (requiring updates). Overall, it's an excellent choice for enthusiasts seeking high-quality video and audio playback.

Great 4K player. Lots of settings to choose from. If you own a Sony TV it's definitely worth it to stick with the brand for connected devices. Pass through options, Dolby Atmos and DTS-X. Only draw back is having to manually switch in settings when watching Dolby Vision movies. The device will not automatically change picture mode.

I bought this because i wanted lossless audio quality. I was not disappointed. Of course you will need receiver + the right audio set up. I immediately bought rambo 5 4k set. Played it on this and it sounded amazing.

Great universal CD/DVD/BD/UHD player for the money, with discrete IR codes for excellent control system integration.

Amazing Sony UBP-X800M2 Blu-Ray player. I have really enjoyed watching 4k movies. It also plays non4k movies as well and upscales them. Worth the money.

One of the few universal players available today. If you have a collection of SACD/DVD-Audio disks then this is one of the most affordable options to replace an old player. My Oppo died and I needed a replacement. "New" old stock Oppos are available, but being price-gouged at $1500. For about $200 this player is a steal, but it appears to also have been phased out. If you need one, buy soon as it's not certain that Sony will continue to support even their SACD format in the future.

Pros: Excellent picture. Syncs with Sony A9G 77in. TV Cons: Dolby Vision must be set manually. (I leave it on by default and turn it off for discs that do not support it. Must be connected to TV and audio sent by ARC or second HDMI out to receiver.

Players may not be used as much as we use to with streaming being more prevalent. These updated devices still come in handy for the Blu-ray and 4K archive just make sure you update your HDMI cable to enjoy the visual and audio quality you expect.

Excellent multi-format disc player. Good ergonomics, user friendly interface, gorgeous image quality. Using it entirely for disc playback. The on-board streaming apps are better served by a dedicated streaming device.

Overall it is a very good 4K blu-Ray player and is priced well at $299. The biggest issue is that it does not auto detect Dolby Vision HDR. Every time you play a DV 4K disc you have to go into the main player menu and turn DV on and turn it back off after you finish the disc. This is a major mis-step by Sony. Also if you want to use the player as your main streamer this is not a good option as it only has Netflix, Amazon & YouTube The picture and sound quality are very good and if you have a separate streaming box and are ok with setting the DV it is a good 4K blu-ray player
