Sony best bang for your buck
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

So Far, So Good!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a replacement for one that had issues when playing DVD's. It would stop the video and leave the audio on, or it would stop the audio and leave the video rolling, or it would stop completely for a few seconds then restart from the beginning, or it would stop and shut its self off completely and this would happen several times in a 10 minute time span that caused Me Great Stress and Irritation! The Geek Squad advised me that it would cost more to send it in for repair than to issue a refund for a new model. I did have to pay a little extra on top of the refund for this model, but it's performing admirably and has NO issues with DVD's, Blue Ray's, or 4K Ultra Disk's! It is exceptionally clear and the Dolby Atmos is also very impressive! I'm very impressed with this Upgraded unit and I Pray it does not develop any of the issues that the last one had.

Great Multi-format disc player
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Best 4K Blu-ray Player and Best Over all Player
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m very techy so when it comes to buying technology for my home theater I research, research and research so more. This player would always be a result in the searches I did and I can see why. This player is remarkable for picture quality for 4K Blu-rays, Blu-rays and even up converting DVD’s. I bought this strictly for playing movies not for streaming. My streaming I use is an Apple TV 4K. The Sony X800M2 is very quiet, loads discs fast and looks great. I have no gripes about it, even having to enable Dolby Vision takes less then 10 seconds to do so I don’t find it a hassle to do like some have mentioned. My best advice for any product is research, research and research some more so you know you’ve getting some quality and will last. I got this while it was on sale for $200

Overall very happy, but has frozen a few times
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall I have been very satisfied with this unit. The main thing I dislike is the complete lack of a display on the front of it. I hate that this and lack of front panel controls are a common trend lately. One thing that keeps me buying Sony players is the dedicated subtitle button on the remote control. Please Sony, don't stop doing this! The only serious issue I've experienced with this unit is that it has frozen completely 2 or 3 times, requiring me to unplug it to restart. I don't think it ever did it while playing a disc, just the streaming apps. It has been a while, so I'm hopeful it was resolved in a firmware update.

Get Hot Easley due to poor Ventilation.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is a good player and is my second one. The first player I bought in 10/2020 started freezing up. My theory is because of the heat. Ventilation is very poor on these units and recommend that you put larger feet on the bottom to elevate it for better ventilation. Also, recommended that you do not use the rapid power-up setting to keep the unit off when not in use.

Posted .Hi BenjaminG,
Thank you for the purchase! We highly recommend putting the Blu-ray player in a open space for better ventilation. Thank you for choosing Sony!

Oppo finally died, this player fills the need
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Outstanding 4K Player
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love Sony for their blu-ray players ECT. The quality of this unit is outstanding from the slim design to the picture. Easy set up and easy to use. Well worth the price considering if you have a 4K TV to go with it. Would by again.

Solidly built, only missing an info screen
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems to play any discs I’ve thrown at it so far. Only wish it had a display for seeing track numbers when I use it as a CD/SACD player without having to have the TV on to see track info. Otherwise, solidly built.

A feature rich HD 4K disc player
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My final selection was this Sony UBP-X800M2 Blu-Ray Player. I researched and shopped players within this price range that would compliment my new AV Receiver and OLED televison. I decided this unit would fit the bill for me. It has all the newest features allowing it to communicate with my other new feature rich home theater components via HDMI connectivity. It can currently stream Wi-Fi from YouTube, Netflix and Prime Video if needed although I have not performed this task as of yet. This model also came bundled with two 4K Blu-Ray Disks. The unit itself has a well built solid feel to it and has been playing my HD 4K Blu-Ray Discs beautifully as advertised with no problems detected. It's a very feature rich unit with a included remote controlling all of the usual optional features including it's pleasant onscreen menu system.

Very Good Player
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have an older Oppo BDP 105. Streaming Tidal through it is still great, but it does not play Ultra HD, HDR blu ray disc. Oppo no longer makes blu ray players and i missed out on getting one of its later HDR players. When looking for a replacement, i was not expecting much from this Sony. However I have been pleasantly surprised by this player. I always figured discs would still look superior to streaming movies from Apple TV 4K and there is a substantial difference between what this player displays vs streaming. The player is connected to an LG CX OLED through a Marantz AVR. Got this at an already reduced price during the 2020 holiday season and that price was further reduced to well under $80 using BB points. Very happy with this player!!

Can't beat this for the money!!!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have 50yrs of audio video experience and have owned many Sony Products including a 65in OLED A80 flat panel tv. This player has a substantial weight of 8lbs check out other players even more expensive ones and you'll see they are typically 3-5lbs. I also own a Panasonic UB9000 at about 20lbs, but it is nearly 3 times the money. You can't go wrong with this player. What I can't believe is how I ordered it online yesterday and it is here today! My Ku Du's for Best Buy being on the ball......
