What customers say about "Features"

Sony UBP-X700 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray Disc Player - Black

Standard dvds do appear to be better quality although the player I replaced was very old!
Upscaling feature for ordinary DVD'S is brilliant. Makes all DVD'S appear in 4k ultra picture.
Plays 4k Blu Rays. In 4k definition. Preferably on a 4k telly.
Upscaling also seems to be pretty impressive on my set and do not have a premium model.
I purchased some UHD Discs and the picture so vivid and striking with the few I have played thus far.

Sony UBP-X800 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray Disc Player

Very pleased with my UBP-X800 I've had many Blu Ray over the years and this is the best all the features but one you could want.
Love the Bluetooth feed for headphones.
Top quality blu ray that plays everything from ultra 4K to dvds picture and sound is excellent
This player is so solid & looks very well built, lots of features
Video quality (and audio with it) great. Firing up a CD really shows off music skills as well - easily a replacement for one box hifi

What customers say about "Outputs"

Sony UBP-X700 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray Disc Player - Black

I connect the player to a soundbar via the HDMI 2 audio output.
It also had an HDMI audio out so you can plug in your sound-bar if you have one.
Great player so far, very quiet, very simple to set up, comes with 2 hdmi outs, perfect if your av receiver cannot pass Dolby Vision.
Two hdmi cables, audio to amp, video directly to tv, and it just worked.
Thank goodness for the separate audio-only hdmi out. My UK hi-fi amp/receiver could not handle both standard HD and 4K video signals tho' claiming 4K compatibility.

Sony UBP-X800 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray Disc Player

Can load up a USB stick with music as well, all controlled via the app (can also control via TV).
It linked to my network immediately and, as such, provides a very reliable connection to the inbuilt apps.
Upscales all my music whether from CD or USB to an amazing quality of sound.
The ability to play any file types that you offer it from either the usb slot or over your home network is the icing on the cake for me.
Great to find 2 HDMI outputs allowing direct video to TV and audio connection to an older receiver that does not support HDR.
