Customer Ratings & Reviews

decided to collect physical media and this is my first player! plays everything beautifully and makes lower quality things hi res so you don’t have to buy the 4k version. although buying 4k movies would be THAT much better it does everything it needs

I owned the original X800 and gifted it to a friend to buy the X800M2. The M2 has Dolby Vision which was not in the X800. Before the silver disc disappear, I needed a backup player that would play all forms of video and music, including, DVD-Audio and SACD. I'm very satisfied with the physical build and output quality of this player.

High quality 4k player, just wish it automatically switched to Dolby vision

For the price I love it and I think hard copy is still the best way to watch movies. Price, quality, features and cosmetics are all on point with the price.

Very good player. I have played several 4K UHD discs since buying this player, and have not had ONE single freeze or glitch, which was common on my previous player. I was going to subtract one star for having to manually enable Dolby Vision per disc, but its so easy to do, I left it at 5.

Really happy with my purchase of the Sony UBP-X800M2! I also have the Sony UBP-X80 which is no slouch either. The only real difference is the X800M2 has Dolby Vision. I noticed the difference right away from HDR. It’s build quality is superb. It weighs more than most 4K Blu-ray players which also helps keep vibrations to a minimum.

No doubt a good 4K Player (the x800M2) but no Vudu app & according to Sony, no way to add it. I like Vudu. I have many digital movies & series stored on Vudu. The x800M2 can only stream from Amazon Prime, Netflix & Tube & I don't like any of them. So, I returned the x800M2 & kept my 5 year-old x800 which does have Vudu & a bunch of other apps & took a Star away from this rating.

Excellent picture when setup properly with your tv. Solid built unit pretty heavy in weight. Has some streaming apps but doesn't include all of them. The Sony tv appears to have more, but you probably would use your tv or streaming device for this anyway. Good price point with features this model offers.

My old Samsung 4K was destroyed by power surge. I bought this Sony to replace it, and I'm much happier. The Sony has some heft to it, and looks nice in the rack. The old Samsung was cheap plastic with a curved front, and vibrated like a washing machine with an unbalanced load when certain discs were played. The Sony gives more information on the source formatting. In every way it is better, for about the same price.

If you want to see movies in true 4K Ultra HD, this is the DVD to buy, specially if you already have a Sony TV. I bought this to pair up with my new Sony Bravia XR X95J tv. Watching the 'Aquaman 4K Ultra HD Blue-Ray DVD' in 4K Dolby Vision & Dolby Atmos was amazing. It was like watching it in the theater all over again.

Beautiful 4K picture with strong physical build, but... Often stops in the middle of playback for no reason. Only has Prime and Netflix without ability to add more apps. Have to switch to Dolby Vision mode before starting.

I decided to return my x700 because it kept freezing. Since it was only 50 dollars more I decided to get this one. I am glad I did it is a big step up in terms of picture and sound quality I am amazed. I did not give this a 5 star because it still has an occasional freeze nothing like the x700 though

so far working fine-have not tried a 4K dvd yet as I need to upgrade the HDMI cable and get a 4K dvd but the TV is capable so will update once I do that.

I seriously can't believe upscaling in 4k is a thing! Whoever invented it, deserves an immediate entry to heaven! SD content in this player look crazy good almost HD. Can't imagine how well HD DVD looks, I'm impressed and happy I got this dirt cheap.. Blu ray in 1080p also looks almost like 4k in this thing! Don't sleep on it, I did my homework too.

Very easy to setup definitely sastisfied with the HD audio quality. HD picute quality is great and especially enjoy how qukckly the deive responds. Looking to get a additional backup of the same model.

this is one of sony top of the line blu-ray dvd players it has dolby vision and hr10 very nicepicture and sound

This a sturdy, high quality player. A nice metal chassis that feels very premium for such a low price. Has Dolby Vision, a feature i very much wanted and not all players in this price range have. Plays 4k discs, regular Blu-rays, and even DVDs well. Not very loud either, especially compared to my last player.

I have been very happy with this in terms of great picture and multiformat compatibility and have been using it heavily every since I purchased it. I will say that when I first set it up, it could not read any of the media I tried to load and I went through the standard buyers remorse of having purchased a pretty expensive brick. As soon as I reset it, everything worked fine, but I'm docking a star for giving me an aneurism upon first attempted use.

Definitely an upgrade from my “another brand “ I don’t know if maybe I’m crazy, but the 4k seems more vivid, and definitely a sound upgrade. I would recommend this to anybody that still in the 4K Blu-ray market.

Worth every cent! I'm fainally maximizing the full potential of my TV's capabilities. This player delivers like no other, the response time is perfect, the intergration is easy, the picure and sound are stunnimg compared to its competitors. It got simple software and is super easy to navigate. Well worth the price!
