OPPO UDP-203 Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Player

Comment

This Ultra HD PLAYER is AMAZING. Why in the world did I wait so long to buy one? The price was a bit scary, but once I cleared that hurdle it was a no brainer. SO HAPPY with this Oppo. Set Up was fast and super easy. The HD PLAYER did 2 firmware updates during initial set up. I dont have a 4K tv and I only played Blu Ray DVD-but the images were unbelievable. The detail-especially in the face of the actors. THE SOUND?! I am hearing sounds out of my home theater that were not being produced with the Sony UHPH1 Premium Audio and Video Player. Picture and Sound are INCREDIBLE. Strong, Sturdy, and well made OPPO HD Player. I look forward to many good years with this item.

Nothing beats an OPPO player in terms of form and function. They are certainly expensive, but in the eight years that Ive owned OPPO players, Ive had nothing but glowing things to say about them. My new UDP-203 is no exception. It is built like a tank and works like a Swiss watch. It plays every kind of disc I throw at it and does so spectacularly. The huge number of available setting options is really where OPPO rises above the pack. I feel like I have complete control over how I want my discs fed to my AVR and TV. The image quality is stellar and the ability to play DVD-A and SACD is just icing on the cake. They are sadly ceasing production on any new hardware, which is a shame. If youre in the market for a 4K disc player, I cant urge you strongly enough to snap one of these up while theyre still available for the retail price. OPPO players really dont lose their value and as soon as OPPO is out of inventory, the third-party market is going to go through the roof. Ill truly miss not being able to look forward to a new player from OPPO. They are legendary.

The UDP-203 is an outstanding product, and well worth the extra expense vs. competitors. All facets of this product are remarkable, from the initial customer-experience of opening the exceptionally well-engineered box, to the obvious rock-solid build-quality, user-friendly documentation, straight-forward setup/install, and ease-of-use. IMO this is a professional grade product that takes 4K UHD audio/video seriously. I have now played many 4K UHD DVDs, and non-4K, and have not had any unexpected surprises. One WiFi firmware upgrade so far. My deployment is with an LG 65E7P OLED TV, with LG SJ9 5.1.2 sound bar. All 3 components support Dolby Atmos for an incredible theatre-like experience. And if you are an electrical engineer, as I am, you will appreciate the technical pages on their Customer Service web-site, where OPPO gives you a peak at how the sausage is made. Very impressive !

I have an OPPO BDP-83, Oppos first Blu-ray player since they came out. After about 3 to 4 years I started to have a issue with the drawer. The player was well out of warranty. I contacted Oppo. They had me ship the player back to them at my cost. The day they received the player they fixed it and put it back into the mail. They didnt charge me a dime. I was impressed. Ive now had the UDP-203 for over a month and have had no issues other than a disc required cleaning. Once the disc was cleaned thoroughly it played without issue. I did buy the UDP-203 player here at Amazon and the price was no different than buying direct from Oppo Digital except I could use American Express at Amazon but not on the Oppo site. The picture and sound has been fantastic.

Just got this after all the hype and I was a little worried because of the price point. I must say, honestly, it is really unbelievable. Played a couple of UHD movies and the video quality is amazing and must be seen to believe. Worth every penny. Set up and the instructions were easy. Everything was very straight forward. I also played a couple of Blue Ray movies that I saw on the old player and it puts it to shame. WHY DID I HOLD OFF SO LONG. Get one, period, before they go away. PS: Oppo please reconsider, and continue producing these players.

Absolutely Shames the competition! (Looking at you Samsung.. you should be ashamed!). Everything is rock solid. The remote is by far the best 4K remote on the market. (All features readily available.. unlike Samsung). Very Responsive, (4K is a lot of data). The Disk drawer is very sturdy. The Firmware is flawless, no glitches! OPPO is a reference level device. Spend the extra money, it is worth it. My Samsung Player is garbage. My Xbox One Slim did "OK". (But when you pause on the Xbox the bottom of the screen is cut off and it is very sluggish). The remote on the Samsung is a Joke and the Xbox remote is only slightly better. Pony up and buy this! P.S. I use old PS3s for my Regular Blu Ray disks.. (I dont want to put any extra wear on the OPPO). Sluggo

The OPPO UDP-203 Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Player I have had for 2 weeks now. It is everything that it was advertised to be. I had the "Samsung Electronics UBD-K8500 3D Wi-Fi 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Player (2016 Model)" before I got the OPPO. I was not happy with the remote or some of the control functions. I can tell you that the "OPPO UDP-203 Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Player" is miles ahead of the Samsung. It plays all my UHD 4k disc great. It accesses all my media on my NAS, with no problem and plays it perfectly. It is the best all around Home Theater Media system I have ever had and Ive had a few. It was money well spent. P.S. It has a fantastic remote, full of features, just what I wanted.

I Love my OPPO to the tune of five stars, it is the best 4K UHD Blu-ray player I have purchase !!! I have many 4K UHD movies with HDR/ HDR 10/ Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, DTS:X the OPPO 203 turns my home theater into a place of much, much joy and happiness. There is nothing to dislike about this very well constructed machine. As the old saying goes you get what you pay for. Sorry to see the American based company close its doors, good bye and Thank you for great piece of equipment.

I had the previous model and was extremely pleased with it.Now with the newest model ,the picture quality and sound is even better.It would be difficult to think that it could be made even better than this. Watching The Martian with this blu-ray player on my brand new L I had the previous model,now I have the newest and is even better with the picture quality and sound,it would be difficult to think that it could even better than the model I have now.It seems we are approaching the limits of improvement. This new model played on my brand new LG oled55b7p and watching The Martian it is like I have reached Mount Everest of tv watching.The experience is better than being at the theaters.

I bought this player specifically to upgrade to an HDMI output DVD-A music to a receiver without analog multi-channel inputs. Ive been extremely pleased with all my DVD-A, SACD and BluRay Audio playing experiences so far, and as a cinephile I certainly appreciate the bluray and DVD playback. I dont have it on a 4K TV but I plan on making that upgrade within the next year. Ive yet to have a bad experience with an OPPO, they are my go-to disc player for all formats. Also a minor plus but one I like, the remote lights up on movement rather than key touch, so as soon as you pick it up you can read the keys in low light viewing conditions.
