Great picture quality but Dolby Vision needs work!

UBP-X700 26 September 2018 by nabeelsheikh (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified

Bought this a few weeks ago with the updated firmware that supports Dolby Vision. Overall great image quality. The set is a bit basic in bulid and much smaller that the UBP-X800 with no digital display or screen on the set. However one huge advatange is that with a firmware update it supports Dolby Vision. This is, however SEVERELY hampered - unfortunately, the unit does not auto-switch when you play a Dolby Vision disc which means that a) the switching has to be done manually from the menu and b) if you don’t know a disc has Dolby Vision and you don't therefore activate it in the menu, you miss out on the benefits (it can be quite difficult to see on Blu Ray discs whether a Dolby Vision signal is included) Sony - this could be an excellent product... please come up with a firmware update that auto-switches Dolby Vision on when it detects a Dolby Vision signal!!

NEEDS HDR AUTO SWITCHING

UBP-X700 28 November 2018 by Isaac112345678 (USA)

I love my x700 player. The picture quality on Dolby Vision titles is AMAZING; however, the Dolby Vision feature must be manually switched off for non Dolby Vison titles (HDR 10 or non HDR video), and back on for the Dolby Vision titles. If turned on the Dolby Vision feature with a non Dolby Vision movie, the picture does not look its best. Some movies with Dolby Vision don't even show on the box if the movie is in Dolby Vision (so I don't know if I should turn the feature on or off). Sony NEEDS to in the future update its filmware so the x700 can detect when a blur ray is playing a non hdr image, an hdr 10 image, and a Dolby vision image.

Sony 4k Player X800

UBP-X700 08 May 2025 by Vrxmac (United Kingdom)

Brought the newer version which was cheaper, but still not as good as this model from 2018.... Unless you go up to the £300 + mark...this is the best one...even the cheaper Panasonic wasn't as good.

Finally Found a Player for Old DVD CD and Bluray

UBP-X700/BM2SP6 22 April 2025 by KSHCSC (Singapore) Verified Purchaser Verified

Good product that can still play DVD and CD. My mum had some old CD she wanted to watch and this worked really well. Even has some apps that comes along with it which is a plus and have USB input and Bluetooth too! Price is good too! Very good buy.. Hard to find players that plays DVD and blue ray now. This is a good buy indeed!

UBP-X700 08 April 2025 by ConDon (United Kingdom)

The UPB-X700 player has a sleek design which will match most audio visual equipment. Standard Blu-Ray discs give excellent colour, audio and picture detail. DVD's also display well and the ability to upscale is definitely a bonus feature. All in all - a perfect addition to my Sony Bravia TV.

UBP-X700/BM2SP6 07 March 2025 by cytan (Singapore) Verified Purchaser Verified

I bought this due to the fact that my ps5 is unable to read created UHD discs for my vacation videos. this is a player which supports alot of disc formats ranging from audio cd, SACD,DVD,etc.. plus with hi res file support via usb port in the front. i think is a good bargain. provided you had a 4K but they do perform well even with a HD player.

Good quality, compact Blu-ray player

UBP-X700 22 February 2025 by Diki77 (United Kingdom)

Easy to set up and use, good quality picture and sound and a smaller footprint to fit wherever you want it to go. Only minus point is that it runs via an adaptor box (supplied), it does not plug straight into the wall so after saving space on the unit itself, you then need to find extra room to accommodate the power supply unit.

Good 4k Blu-ray player

UBP-X700 20 February 2025 by dnbrlw (United Kingdom)

I bought this last month and plugged it into my Sony Bravia TV and was easy to get started with. I set this player up to output in the format of whatever was playing and the tv takes care of any upscaling. I also had to make sure the tv was set up for Blu-ray Discs which meant turning off most of the settings on the tv! The player starts up quickly and is not laggy when telling it what to do. It’s quiet as well and doesn’t have a glowy display (just 1 green led) so not intrusive. I think it can be used as a browser and apps can be played on this like a massive fire stick so would work well with a non-smart tv.

Sony UBP X700

UBP-X700/BM2SP6 26 January 2025 by FanClub (Singapore) Verified Purchaser Verified

Clearly the picture and audio quality were very good. Loading is a tad slow, can make it faster thru firmware update. Only region A and code 3 can be used on this machine. Hence I have to throw away lots of code 1 DVD. Hope next firmware upgrade can made the machine region or code free. Minimally code free.

Amazing picture, compact, quiet

UBP-X700 16 January 2025 by NickFiend (United Kingdom)

I've been putting off buying a 4K ultra player for a while as films are expensive. My old pioneer blu-ray player was getting louder and slower, so I decided to replace it with this one. The blu-ray picture is improved on this one, but 4K Ultra discs look and sound absolutely amazing! I'm just buying them 2nd hand. Highly recommended

Upgraded my Sony blu- ray with UBP-X700 Ultra HD Blu-ray/DVD player. However the experience has not been great . The player sometimes paused on it’s own always 3/4 into the movie . I checked firmware update and did a reset. Hope that fixes it . The old Blu-ray player played fine from day one !

Struggles to play 4K discs

UBP-X700 13 November 2024 by Dan79UK (United Kingdom)

Plays Blu Rays fine but half of the 4K discs I have tried freeze during playback between 30-60 minutes in. Have cleaned discs, made sure software is updated, reset the player and unplugged and restarted many times to no effect. I can see that this is a common problem from reviews.

Approx. 8 years ago I purchased a SONY 65" 4K BRAVIA TV. It always had a good picture but I hadn't purchased a 4K Blue Ray player until now. I put a 4K movie in and the picture is amazing. So crisp and clear. At $159.00, it's a steal!

UBP-X700 06 November 2024 by MarkFromNC (USA) Verified Purchaser Verified

Audio and video from VERY LIMITED STREAMING CONTENT, Blu-ray Disc (BD) and Ultra HD BD is very good. Don't plan on using this as your only streaming device and/or hook it up to a smart tv because number of apps available on UBP-X700 is VERY LIMITED. Please see photo "All Apps" available and yes I did software update on UBP-X700 before I took this picture on 11/06/2024.

Does not play 3D

UBP-X700 13 September 2024 by markva44 (United Kingdom)

I spoke to support to verify this player will work on my new 65" OLED 4K TV. The advisor on the chat said yes, I went back on the chat at Sony support and asked the same question, the other operator said yes it will play 3D films on your new TV. It arrived, I set it up followed all instructions and quess qhat NO it will not play Blu ray 3D films. I arranged a return. I spoke to Richer sounds where I bought my new TV from a few days ago, they said there is no way it will play 3D blu ray films. I should of asked Richer sounds first before I wasted my time and money on this useless product.
