Plays SACDs
DVD-Audio discs
And native DSD files
Inexpensive
The editors didn't like
It can be slow to load 4K discs. Limited number of audio outputs
No optical digital or stereo analog. The player requires a little hands-on fine-tuning to get the most out of music and DVD replay. No Dolby Vision

The Sony UBP-X800 4K Blu-ray player has impressive build quality and video performance, but the incumbent Samsung is better value...
Sony's first entry in the Ultra HD Blu-ray market is a good one. The UBP-X800 is fast, well built, and very reliable, and it delivers a high-quality video experience. Although it lacks some of the advanced connection and setup flexibility that you'll find...
Very good overall performance, Plays SACDs, Good low price
Doesn't play DSD from network, Could be a touch better on 1080i50 deinterlacing
I did enjoy using this player very much. It was reliable. It offers better disc control on more formats than most, and the network performance was generally very good. There are clear complementarities for those using a Sony TV, and even for those with a...

Slim, sleek design, Gorgeous 4K, HDR picture, Top-tier audio, including Dolby Atmos and DTS:X
No Dolby Vision
Yes. If you've got a sizable collection of discs from all generations of video and audio and are looking to see and hear them in excellent quality, this is a prime choice. It looks good, sounds great, and at $250, is a relatively affordable way to get pre...

Superb 4K UHD Blu-ray picture performance, 4K Netflix and Amazon onboard, SACD and DVD-A compatibility, Hi-Res Audio file playback
No analogue stereo output, Not Dolby Vision compatible
You can pay both more, or less, for a UHD Blu-ray player, but Sony hits such a sweet spot with the UBP-X800 that we suspect you won't want to. Beautifully built, and capable of superb video and audio, this deck holds appeal for both home theatre fans and...

We rate this Sony UHD Blu-ray player very highly indeed. Its build quality inspires confidence (not something you can say about the sort of commodity Blu-ray decks Sony was making just a few years ago), and its AV performance rivals the very best out ther...
Flawless disc playback, Great audio performance, Good range of apps with 24p support, Very quiet in use and well-built
No Dolby Vision support
The Sony UBP-X800 may have been late to the party but it was certainly worth the wait with a minimalist design, classy finish and fantastic build quality. The player supports every disc format you can think of, not to mention just about every file format...
