Sony Uhd Blu Ray Player

I have a Panasonic BluRay player that I love... however, after being forced to get a 4K TV when my beloved 1080p LG TV died, my blu ray discs looked awful on the 4K display. I'm not interested in re-buying my collection on UHD, and the vast majority aren't available in that format anyway. So I took the plunge and purchased the UB820 with the hope that I would upscale better than the TV hardware... I am pleased to say that it definitely does and my blu ray discs look wonderful again. I did purchase a few 4K UHD discs and they of course look amazing as well.

Use with a Sony Blu-ray Disc Player.

This is a great UHD (4K) Blu-ray player. It costs more than some others but it doesn't compromise. One particularly notable feature is that this model has Dolby Vision. You can find a cheaper player with Dolby Vision but it does not detect and enable Dolby Vision automatically; you have to turn it on and off. Spend a little extra and get the UHD/Dolby Vision Blu-ray player that does it right.

Great UHD blu-ray player. Also plays HD blu-ray, DVD, CD's etc. Terrific picture and sound. Fast startup. I highly recommend.

I first read many of the reviews written by present owners. I then went on line & placed my order for in store pickup. Once I set the unit up and connected it to my 4K UHD TV and turned it on, I was blown away. No matter the disc format it loaded rapidly. The dvd and blu-ray movies were brighter as well as more vivid color wise. When I played a 4K disc, I was stunned at the quality of the image. The sound quality was absolutely amazing, detailed, and immersive. It clearly out performed the LG blu-ray player that I had been using over the last 3 years. The remote control is lightning fast without any delay whatsoever. I have always loved Sony’s DVD players/recorders and now there 4K UHD player remains a high quality product. I highly and strongly recommend the UBP-X800M2 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray / DVD player for anyone looking to upgrade from a standard blu-ray player. You will not be disappointed!

I would highly recommend this player to everyone who is a serious 4k uhd or even 1080p blu ray collector or enthusiast. The Dolby Vision feature is very seamless like it should be and the upscaling of blu rays is very nice and the picture quality of 4k uhd discs is some of the very best that is out there. It´s big and it looks good and runs fast is smooth, quiet and efficient and is thus far a great player.

Everything I get from B&H is very good quality, including this Sony Blu-ray player.

We had an old blu-ray player that no longer could play the latest Blu-Ray discs or even new DVDs. This player does it all very well. We have other pay-for-view providers that look better after installing this player. We also find that it is faster when reacting to remote button pushes. There is little to no lag in sending/receiving commands. Our system has a seven channel surround system and the sound from this player is wonderful. It also make a big difference when playing CDs when we use it for a music player. This player is not inexpensive, but at this point has been worth every cent we spent on it. The people at B&H also got it to us with standard shipping in three days. If you are looking to purchase a new Blu-Ray player, this would be the one to purchase.

I have been using (I thought) high end 4K UHD Blu-ray players for a few years, but I got frustrated by my Sony constantly freezing when it switched layers. This machine plays discs that froze on the Sony perfectly. It's video upscaling and HDR enhancements are quite obvious. One thing to keep in mind: setting up the video, make sure you choose 4.4.4 output, so you get what you are paying for. And on the audio, set the outputs to bitstream to fully send all of the channels to your AV receiver to decode. I am glad I bought it.

The Sony UBP-X800 HDR UHD Wi-Fi Blu-ray Disc Player is by far the best product Ive purchased to date.  The unit runs quietly and accepts virtually all media (CD, DVD, Blu-ray) including USB flashcard content (AVI, MPG to name a few).
