Lack of display on machine is somewhat annoying. - While this player does everything as advertised, I do have a few complaints. The lack of a front-panel display, as noted by other reviewers, just seems cheap and annoying. Ditto the remote, which has no direct-access numeric keys. The remote control for my old Sony Blu-ray player--which can operate this new player and vice versa--included a direct-access keypad. Just seems like a cheap omission on a player that costs considerably more. Oh, and for some unfathomable reason, Sony decided to switch the placement of JUST the skip and scan buttons on the remote. Otherwise, the placement of every other button is identical. So I'm constantly skipping when I want to scan and scanning when I want to skip. This improvement brought to you by the let's-screw-with-your-head-for-being-a-loyal-customer department at Sony. Now maybe it's my TV--which is a 4K, HDR capable set--but none of the several 4K UHD disks I have played on this machine look noticeably superior to a good Blu-ray of the same material. In fact the colors on one, my 2001: A Space Odyssey 4K disc, look decidedly less vivid. I don't see any significant difference in resolution. I would have chalked it up to being unobservant or that my TV isn't up to the task, except that I can definitely see the difference between 4K UHD steaming materials and regular HD streamings on Netflix or desertcart using the same TV. My other complaint is that it appears to be more finicky about playing damaged or compromised optical disks than my old player (which cost about a third what this one does). Refused to play some of my older CD-R discs, which are starting to deteriorate, I guess. The pros: Appears to be a very well made piece of equipment--certainly if weight is anything to go by It's practically silent Love the additional HDMI audio only output Plays a huge variety of disc formats--including SACDs! Wonderful audio quality for music discs and video soundtracks I had none of the problems performing the firmware update reported by some of the other reviewers. I assume those problems have now been corrected. Cons: Somewhat slow to turn on. Even slower to turn off! No front panel display except for a single green power light Very hard to see the front-panel's only two buttons: eject and power. Constantly pressing the wrong button Remote has no direct-access numerical keypad. Also, keys do not light. Very cheap remote. Could not read a couple of damaged CDs and DVDs that my old Sony Bluray player has no trouble playing Review: It is a beautiful machine and is big and heavy and looks impressive - It is a beautiful machine and is big and heavy and looks impressive. It was real easy to install and works fine with my 65 inch 4K Samsung TV. I am running it through a Yamaha receiver and using the best HDMI cables. The ATMOS sound is good but I guess you need some speakers that point straight up or put some speakers in your ceiling. I went with DVD in 1999 and had a standard 32 inch TV which meant I was leading edge and the DVD picture was the best ever. I was using a Pioneer receiver and big Ceran Vega speakers and was the cat's meow with my group of friends. In 06 I went to 52 inch 1080p TV and bought a Samsung Blu-ray player and this was while the battle between blu ray and HD TV was still going on and blu ray 1080p was definitely better and probably worth the bucks. I have had 9 DVD players since 1999 and early on the firm ware up dates drove me and everyone else crazy. I replaced a Sony "upscale" machine with this one. If upscale actually did anything it was wasted on me. We installed the new machine last night and watched the movie Sing. It was beautiful but was it way better that regular 1080p blu ray. If it was then it was also wasted on me. I really am a media freak and listen to digital music in the gym and on the road but in the "man's cave" I listen to vinyl. Anyway, to keep this short and sweet--if hyou are going to go full up 4K you will have to replace everything if you have a home theater. Well, you can keep your old speakers. You need a 4K TV, a 4K DVD player (this one is awesome for the bucks) and Stereo receiver that will recognize and process the audio (ATMOS and DTS-X). The upgrade cost me about 3 thousand dollars and then I decided I needed all new Klipsch speakers but that is just me. You could probably go with a 52 inch TV and go full up 4K for 2 thousand but here is my point. If you are on a budget, trying to raise kids then I recommend that you save your money. There may be a difference between 4K and blu-ray 1080p and I am relatively certain that there is a technical difference but I don't think it will WOW your senses like the fist DVD experience or first 1080p blu ray with DTS did and don't think ATMOS sound will blow you away either versus DOLBY 5.1 or DTS 5.1. On the other hand--if you have extra cash or are old and retired like me and looking for things to entertain yourself then maybe 4K is the way to go. When I first ordered this machine I almost re-purchased The Life of Pi in 4K. I already have it blu ray but the visuals in this movie are awesome but am now glad that I did not because I don't believe I would notice the difference. If you need a new player this one has all the bells and whistles but if you are expecting a giant leap forward. Sorry. ## Features - High Dynamic Range (HDR) support.

The 2017 Samsung 4K player will also not support Dolby Vision as they are more focused on Bluetooth audio and improved audio and 4K upscaling. If you really want a high end 4K player, I would go with the Oppo 4K player. It's not a smart player, but later on this year it'll have an update that makes it Dolby Vision HDR player. **Q: If i place a japanese 4k uhd disc, will it show japanese subs? and can i choose japanese audio if included?** A: Hi TARO EL, yes. This Bluray player is capable of displaying subtitles with foreign characters and audio if included. Please keep in mind that our players are region-locked. Your Japanese disc should be encoded for region A. Thanks, -Mark ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Appears to be well made.

Sorry. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid 4K player (Comparison to the S790) *by J***K on December 27, 2017* Included with the player are the instructions, remote control, and batteries. Although the instruction manual is pretty thin and lacking, the player was very quick and easy to setup with my tv. After connecting to my network, the player immediately notified me of a firmware update which I did before first using the player. For some reason though, it had me go through the setup again after the update, although all of my previous settings had been saved and I just had to hit continue. The current firmware update takes about 5 minutes or so to do and is supposed to improved network stability and UHD compatibility. As it seems to be with electronics and software of all brands these days, the initial firmware is buggy and the firmware update should be the first thing you do before using the player. I have previously been using a Sony BDPS790 that I have been mostly happy with (minus a couple issues) for the last 3 to 4 years. I recently got a true 4K TV and although the 790 has worked well with it, I decided to get the X800 mainly because it is a true 4K Blu-ray player whereas the 790 is a 4K upscaling player and not true 4K one. One of the issues that I have with the 790 and Sony for that matter is that they have seemingly stopped updating the apps on the player, even though the player is only about 3 to 4 years old. The Netflix app on the player, for example, is an older version that doesn’t have the same features and options that the latest version has. It has also been a while since the last firmware update for the 790 as well, which I guess is Sony’s way of forcing you to upgrade to a new player eventually. Another issue with the 790 player is the difficultly in streaming certain video formats over a NAS/DLNA link. Although it would play most formats with a USB hard drive plugged directly into it, it would refuse to play some formats (such as MKV) over the network. I was a little nervous about the X800 having the same issues, especially after reading the thin instruction manual which had asterisks beside the formats that it can play, indicating it may or may not play those over the network. I am currently using a TM NAS on my network, which has several different streaming protocols that can be set to boot up. So, I tried to play several different video formats, including AVI, MP4, MKV and MPG and to my surprise, the X800 streamed all the video without an issue. At least so far, it looks like the formats that I use, the player can handle via streaming but according to the instructions the streaming may not be issue free on some formats. I also connected my USB external hard drive, which is a WD 3 TB drive, to the USB port of the player. One improvement in design over the 790 that Sony made was moving the USB port from the back of the 790 to the front of the X800, making it easier to connect and use. The USB cable does get in the way from time to time if you are using the disk tray though. It is an improvement in location, but I do think a port(s) on the side or both sides of the player might be a better choice as it would be easy to connect and still be out of the way of the front of the player and the disk tray. The connected USB hard drive was quickly recognized and I was able to play all the formats that I tried including video, music and photos. As with the 790, not all formats will work flawlessly but I found this player’s ability to play a variety of formats to work better than the 790. I personally like the cleaner interface of the 790 more than the X800 which follows the trend started with Windows 8 and sort of looks a bit like what the PS4 looks like with the large icons all over the screen. It isn’t terrible but it did take me some time to figure out where things are, something I had no issue with on the cleaner menu of the 790. The initial boot up time is the player is faster than the older 790 and initializes with the network much faster than the 790 Blu-ray player. When trying to open Netflix, the 790 sometimes would error or take several tries to connect with the network, an issue that I have yet to have with the X800. The Netflix app on the X800 is the latest version and worked well. The various apps load quickly and work over my network with no issues or pauses but of course you are limited to what Sony decides to include or add as far as streaming apps. I am using a cable modem along with a R7000 A/C router along with an extender in the home, so keep in mind that your mileage may vary depending on the network setup you have. The video on the streaming apps is sharp and what you would expect from a good quality player. The sound sent to the surround receiver is also good as well. Blu-ray and DVD disks load quickly with the player with no issues. Blu-rays look great on the player. The X800 has the ability to play UHD disks but I have yet to try those as Sony’s UHD movie bonus is no longer included with the player. The remote has most of the essential buttons and in logical locations, including a quick access Netflix button but it is a bit smaller than the 790’s remote and feels slightly flimsier than the older remote. The number pad has been eliminated in the X800’s remote. So far though, I haven’t really missed the number pad and haven’t noticed any lacking buttons that I think I would need. The Bluetooth feature is also nice for adding wireless headphones and things like that. At its regular price (approximately 300), I think that the player is a bit pricey, however if you can find it on sale at the price (149) that I grabbed it, then it is worth the price even if the player isn’t quite perfect. Pros: Quick, Easy Setup Immediately notifies of firmware updates True 4K including support for 4K streaming apps Streams a variety of video/music/photo file formats (See cons) Recognizes large hard drives via USB Plays most formats via USB hard drive Improved USB port location (see cons) Quick boot up time Quick network recognition Works well with streaming apps Uses current version of apps (see cons) Works well with a variety of Blu-rays, UHD, DVD’s and CD’s Beautiful picture and good sound Bluetooth Good quality well-made player 2 HDMI ports Cons: Manual is a bit lacking Firmware update a bit slow and takes you through setup process again Firmware updates may not keep up with latest versions of apps over time (based on previous experience with previous Sony players) Some file formats may not work reliably over the network or not at all Location of USB port may cause USB cable to get in the way of the disk tray. Menu interface a bit cluttered and some functions difficult to find Bonus UHD’s no longer included Remote smaller and feels flimsier, no number pad Limited app choices No front display Pricey at regular price 4 stars ## Frequently Bought Together - Sony UBP-X800 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Player - Amazon Basics HDMI Cable, 6 Feet, HDMI 2.1 to HDMI Cable (48Gbps), 8K@60Hz 4K@120Hz Certified Ultra High Speed, Black, Compatible with PS5/Xbox/TV/Monitor --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/40169912-ubp-x800-4k-ultra-hd-blu-ray-player](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/40169912-ubp-x800-4k-ultra-hd-blu-ray-player) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-09-12*
