    This unit turns itself off if you pause it for more than 20 minutes, making it useless to me. Can't return it because I don't have the original box anymore so I'm stuck with it. Going to give it away and buy an LG or Samsung or any player that doesn't turn itself off.

    This blurry player was a replacement for one that was unable to load Prime Video. This new one we had installed cannot load Prime Video either!!! Additionally, you cannot install additional apps on this device. We are disappointed.

    It could have more apps on it and shouldn't have to manually select dolby vision.

    Defective Sony UBP-X800M2

    Very disappointed. I have had this unit about 30 days but it failed while playing only the third disc. It has gone completely unresponsive. I have had good experiences with Sony in the past, but my bad experience with this UBO-X800M2 will overshadow those memories. I’ll be returning this unit at my earliest convenience.

    Fails to Play 4K Movies W/O Freezing

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've had constant freezing issues while playing 4K titles that don't fail on other players. Sony is ignoring the issue when I speak to them. I don't think sending the player in for service will fix this issue. Sony appears to not be doing anything about it; highly disappointed.

    Problems with Sony DVD 4k player!

    Will not play 4K without sound skipping/distortion. Unit turns off ever 10 to 15 minutes on any format DVD for no reason. Impossible to watch movies. We have all new 4K HDMI cables. Talked to Geek Squad at the store and they were no help. I bought the Geek Squad coverage when we realized that there were problems that we realized when the the return period was almost up. I took as a while to install the new TV and DVD player. I don't really no what to do now!

    I used it a hand full of times and it stopped working after 6 months. All the brands make such low quality products that it no longer makes sense to buy them. May as well just stream it. And for the record prefer Sony over LG and Samsung, so this isn’t a review I was planning to make. Save your money.

      Posted .

      Hi SonyLover, We're sorry to hear that your Sony UBPX800M2 has stopped working after only 6 months of use. This is definitely not the news that we would like to hear. Please allow us to help you and turn this into a better experience. If the player does not turn on even when you
      press power on the remote or the player. Please follow these steps:
      Turn off the player and disconnect the AC
      power cord (mains lead). Wait for more than
      2 minutes, and then reconnect the AC
      power cord (mains lead) and turn on the
      player.

      If you are unable to resolve your concern, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

    Had it just over 2 months and started locking up every ten min. I should have listened. Now I can take it back to Best Buy, how am I supposed to bring it back with the COVID shutdown? I no longer have the box.
