    Works great. A little snappier than my old Samsung. The menus are a bit clunky and hard to navigate. The main screen is a little slow to update when you put a disk in. I wish it just more straightforward and performed like a normal player. I don't need my bluray to be a "smart device" Youtube, netflix etc.. The home screen isn't even 4k.

    Poor Quality and Lacking Functions

    I am very disappointed with this bluray player. The streaming app is a joke and streams very in low bitrates. Upscaling for larger screens is also pathetic and my blurays now look like a standard DVDs. I do not like that it does not include an optical audio out and instead uses an additional HDMI e-ARC for audio output. However, my speakers do not have HDMI inputs, so this port is wasted space. Worse of all, I struggle to marry and synchronize sound from the DVD player with the optical output on my TV. I often get feedback or audio delays and have to tinker settings on both the bluray player and my TV. Finally, The player almost never remembers where I stopped a DVD, even if it only goes into standby. Yet my playstation can remember stops even after disks are removed. I wish I had purchased another playstation to serve as my bluray player and returned this sony back to BB.

      Hi StablerD,

      Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding the UBP-X800M2 Blu-ray player. We sincerely apologize for the inconveniences you have encountered.

      We understand your frustration concerning the streaming app and the low bitrates. Streaming quality can be affected by multiple factors, particularly the speed and stability of your internet connection. We recommend ensuring that your connection meets the minimum requirement of 10 Mbps for optimal HD streaming.

      As for the upscaling feature, the UBP-X800M2 is engineered to enhance the quality of Blu-ray discs for larger screens. However, the effectiveness of this upscaling may vary based on the original quality of the Blu-ray disc and the specifications of your television. We suggest reviewing your TV’s settings to optimize it for upscaling.

      We also recognize your concern regarding the absence of an optical audio output.

      Regarding the synchronization of sound, audio delays can sometimes occur due to the processing time required by different devices. To help resolve this, we recommend checking the audio delay settings on both your Blu-ray player and television. The UBP-X800M2 model includes an A/V sync function, which allows you to adjust the audio output to align with the picture. You can delay the sound output by 0 to 120 milliseconds for better synchronization. For detailed instructions, please refer to page 19 of this manual:
      [UBP-X800M2 Manual](https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/4740/043cf5641adf90fb7113c8029fdb0239/47408221M.pdf).

      We also acknowledge your concerns regarding the player not remembering where you left off while watching a DVD. We understand that this feature can vary between devices, and we appreciate your feedback on this matter.

      If you still have your unit and require further assistance, please provide us with the following information by emailing socialsupport@am.sony.com:

    This is our second Sony X-800 model. This came with 2 DVDs, I assume that the M2 means this. We had one for our living room TV and got this one from our home theater in the basement. Phot is tough to see it in our cabinet.

    Absolute garbage. Bought this item a while ago. Never was able to actually watch a movie all the way through it would constantly freeze and skip and cause issues. I should have returned it a long time ago but just took it as a loss. I wish I would’ve trusted my judgement to get rid of it sooner. Do not buy this.
