A Pleasurable Experience
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.

Bad device
Sony UBP-X800M2 my personal opinion 1. Pixel motion in smooth and good " 24p True Cinema movie " 2. Very low background noises Compressed colors, there is no wide stage for colors, faded and poor quality paint a. No good conversion to 4: 2: 2 or 4: 4: 4 and not 12 BIT - the mechanism works but weak, good idea but weak hardware. 4. HDR is weak and imperceptible 5. Missing details in color 6. Lack of shades in color 7. Medium contrast 8. Lack of image sharpness 9. It is not possible to hear DD + and not Atmos TrueHD / via USB and even on original discs these formats cannot be heard 10. No sound conversion from 48HZ to 96/192HZ 11. Remote control lacking lighting 12. Slow film loading 13. Color can only be calibrated in two foci and not at a quality level 14. Only one USB port 15.there is no sharpness mechanism 16.there is no texture mechanism 17. Outdated image calibration - missing gamma calibration, no sharpness calibration, no Cinema Motion / Smooth Motion and more .. 18. Noise reduction mechanism / noise filter - weak and imperceptible 19. No marking for movies - HDR10 + or HDR 10, only HDR mark 20. Bonnie seals the image from noise with chrome which prevents seeing texture, details, shades so the image quality will always be mediocre a. In light of this there is no difference between 1080P and 4K film in this device because no details and shades of colors can be seen b. HDR on this device only ruins the image more 21. "The player can support video bit rate up to 40 Mbps " -It is listed in the operating instructions, when 4K is over 100mbps the device does not come close to OPPO 103 in image quality a very mediocre device, smooth and pleasant film movement. the processor is very weak and took time to load a film. the processor cannot convert color quality or sound quality. can't believe OPPO has not been producing 4 years and Sony look like a joke !!! HDR 10 or 10+ is not noticeable that works at all no depth to color or quality to color I did a test - I brought 15 people / couples to see HDR in my house 1. I showed them OPPO 103 and told them it was a 4K HDR movie In practice it was a 1080P SD movie 1.1 I then showed them a full ultra ray on a Sony UBP-X800M2 + NVIDIA PRO level 4K device all 15 couples / people were in shock I told them that what they see in OPPO103 is normal blue ray 1.2 All men and couples preferred the movie on OPPO rather than on X800M2 + NVIDIA PRO devices not a serious product, a big disappointment from Sony. no wonder people do not buy Blu-ray - because it ruins the experience and quality of movies compared to a computer can't believe how Sony is ruining its name! there is no service in Sony like talking to a computer that will not help you in anything. I hope I no longer have to buy a Sony

    Could be Better
    Well first I bought a LG player thinking that since it had streaming WiFi I could just add the apps I wanted onto it (prime, Netflix, & Vudu) I was wrong so took it back to store and bought this Sony instead, cannot add any apps to this one either, and I wish there was an update for it so I could get Vudu on it, my last Sony's had all three of those & many more apps as well. At least have 2 of the 3 apps I use on this player, I wish I could add other I wanted!!!

    Blu-ray players; get 'em while you can!
    I bought this Blu-ray/streaming player as part of an update my home theater. I like it and it works well with speakers I had before. I needed a new Blu-ray player as I have a library and am concerned about the loss of Blu-ray players as the market disappears. I like this because it is well built and sturdy.

    Pretty dang good
    I have owned it just short of a month and have only a couple of related complaints. There is no screen on the unit itself to display the track number being played and the TV HAS to be on to see what is being played. and so far I can't find any setting to keep it from turning on my TV automatically no matter what is in the player.

    Good features but…
    Been working up to today…I went to play Guardians of the galaxy #1 today and it froze (see picture) very disappointed I have been buying Sony equipment for years and only problem I had was with one of the first hi def CRT TV set's they made 30 inch wide screen but the took good care of me and sent me an upgraded set was a new 34 inch model. So as you can see doubt very much if they will help me out as this ultra hd Blu-ray is not cheap. :(

    Beast Little Big Thing!
    First of all, the packaging was a bit difficult but it's not a big hassle. They packed it with well done padding to hold it together so it wouldn't bend or tear or broken. After setting it up, learning about the Dolby Vision issue, I was able to enable it through the setting and let me tell you this. This thing had made all the movies I have BEAUTIFUL. After watching Final Fantasy XV: Kingsglaive, I can't tell you how much this thing had turn this incredible incredible with every details and such. Oh, also, I got it on sale so it's a no brainer, I had to buy it. Don't pass it up, its worth every penny. Coming from LG UBK80, this thing IS FAR BETTER than that 4K DVD player. Go AND BUY IT. You won't regret it. Thank you, Sony for this amazing thing. :)

    Versatile Universal Disc Player
    I received this as a Christmas present and have been putting it through it's paces daily since then. This is one of the only, if not THE only, universal disc players on the market. I have a small collection of SACDs and DVD-audio disks that I want to be able to continue playing. In addition, I am building a collection of UHD Blu-ray movies. This player does all this and more. The music handling is perfect. It correctly decodes the aforementioned special music format discs and sends out high-res audio and DSD to my receiver. Since it is using an HDMI interface, no quality is lost and the result is perfect playback. The machine is very quiet in operation as well. The ability to load audio files on a USB drive or from over the network is much appreciated as well. Video handling is also excellent. The video processing is extremely good and movies look fantastic on 4K TVs as well as regular HD TVs. Conversion from 4K HDR to 1080p SDR is very accurate and doesn't introduce any problems. HDR and Dolby Vision work very well. Playback of UHD content from a USB drive works just as well as playing a disk. There is no front panel time counter on this model, which would have been nice, but the lack of it does make the player better if you like a perfectly dark viewing environment.The only issue with the video features is lack of Dolby Vision auto-detection. Dolby Vision needs to be turned on and off manually. If this feature is added via software update, this would be a perfect player. Overall I am very satisfied with the UBP-X800M2. It handles all the formats with with flawless quality and is very reasonably priced for the feature set. Highly recommended!

    Beautiful Picture and Sound
    I own a 85" X950G so I purchased a Sony blu-ray player to take advantage of the HDMI passthrough feature and eliminate the need for a 2nd remote and that works great. The picture quality is amazing and I've only watched standard HD blu-ray content. I plan on watching some 4k content this weeked to see what my tv/blu-ray combo is fully capable of. It works seemlessly with my atmos capable soundbar. So why only 2 stars? Anytime the device is powered off for more than a couple of hours it will not power on. To make it useable again you have to unplug it from the wall outlet and plug it back in. This is unacceptable for such an expensive product.

    Plays it all!!
    Love it!! Had different older blue ray that did not play DVD Audio which I own a few of. So great listening to them . Got into those with a my first 5.1 surround system many years ago. Had to have a different player to play them. This machine plays it all and decodes it all.

    Very good!
    I've had time to try this out and I'm so glad I bought it. Easy to set up and connect to WiFi. I upgraded from an older LG sound bar. I researched and read so many reviews and settled on this. I've found that it's great with Tv programs and adds a new element to watching movies. It also makes music sound great too.
