Good user interface, great features, and easy to configure. Only complain is the power supply adapter that comes with it. Like most people I put this player into an entertainment center With a power strip in the back to plug all A/V equipment poser cords. That power adapter is so wide that it blocks the adjacent power outlets.

The Sony UBP-X700 is a replacement for the former UBP-X800. The new player is smaller and more lightweight than its predecessor. Its about the size of most recent Sony Blu-ray players. It produces a solid 4K picture that looks like it was from a more expensive player. The set up is very simple--just choose your language and set up your wireless connection for the basics. Most of the default settings work fine for most users. The operation is very intuitive. When the opening screen comes up, press the open/eject button, insert your disc and press PLAY and your done. This 4K player has 2 HDMI outputs--one for audio/video and the second for audio only. This is very helpful if you are using a receiver with this player. Sony has put the latest video technology into the X700--Dolby Vision. It produces a more vivid picture with better contrast. Be advised that this feature does not come out of the box. You have to update Sonys latest firmware to get this technology that was not available on the previous model, the X800. There are some minor complaints with the X700. The primary concern is that the included remote is smaller than last years model. Good luck using the remote if you have large fingers. It is nice that the footprint is smaller with the X700, but its light weight cant keep it steady while pressing the open/eject button. The X700 weighs only just over 3 lbs., while the previous model was 8-1/2 lbs. The Sony UBP-X700 is a solid 4K player. When it was first released it was priced at $250. It currently is priced at under $200. That makes it a great bargain for someone looking for a feature-laden 4K player.

ERRATA: I incorrectly stated Dolby Vision shuts off for non-Dolby Vision movies. At the moment it is not doing that and the feature needs to be manually disabled. I am hoping that future versions will correct this. This player finally checks all of the boxes: affordable, capable, and supports Dolby Vision with a free firmware update. The player itself feels a bit flimsy, much like the sub $100 commoditized players Sony and others sell in department stores. But the visual quality is superb and will deliver better visuals thanks to Dolby Vision provided your movie and your television support that HDR format. The player performs nicely with a relatively quiet operation and a smattering of apps that are likely already on your TV. Blu-ray movies load quickly and play back reliably. See more details in the attached video review.

Can’t go wrong here. It just does what they say it does. The separate audio output is genius. If you’re not investing in an Atmos sound system just yet, and who is? the separate HDMI port lets you connect to your existing audio. Controls are simple and if your smart tv is up to the task, and whose isn’t? you can control some functions through the TV remote. PS. Make sure you’re buying the x-700, the 800 is the older model and does not have the Dolby Vision upgrade (over the internet) and the built in WiFi is a big plus.

So I stupidly decided to ignore some of the warnings from the others that have purchased this "unit". I have had good luck with Sony over the years and I chose to roll the dice. Well, everything that was reported on other reviews has happened on the unit I received today. First when booting it said there was an update - it went through the update process without issue and eventually it came up to the menu screen (non DVD inserted yet). I started to review the configurations to make sure it was setup correctly for my home theater. During my default menu navigation I noticed the lower half to lower third of the screen flashed white a few times. Next the unit rebooted and came back to the menu screen and it follows this sequence every couple of minutes. I played some Youtube videos and they seemed to play ok however when I inserted a Blu Ray and began to watch my film the unit stopped and rebooted and after 10 seconds or so came right back to where it was on the DVD. This repeated a couple more times and then it finally just froze and went black and by the looks of the display on my Stereo Receiver it simply stopped putting out an audio or video signal. I am going to return this pronto and choose something that works. Goodbye Sony, will miss the old days with you.

Locks up every few hours whether Im watching streaming OTT video or a DVD. It will just randomly freeze on the picture of whatever source Im watching. The unit is completely unresponsive at that point and only pulling the power cable fixes it. Running the latest firmware. Really hope Sony fixes this soon. Im past the return window on Amazon.

If all you do is turn it on and turn it off for a Blu-Ray Disc it is "OK". This will not stream reliably, after a a few days or about 20 hours of streaming it will completely hang and needs to be unplugged and replugged to be used. Second, so sad that Sony is using its products to limit functionality of competitors. I have Hulu Live and guess what, Sony Blocks live streaming! disheartened that Amazon would allow this product on their site without an asterisk.

Easy setup and works great. I have noticed the 4K UHD discs need to be perfectly clean or it will skip and freeze up. So I clean disc each time before I put it in and no issues.

4K disc consistently froze right out of the box. I tried to ignore the 15% of negative reviews on Amazon and give Sony a shot. Now I have $300 worth of 4K movies that I cant watch. This player embarrassed me in front of my family who came over for the holidays. I literally shipped it back to the seller a few hours after FedEx delivery. There are other options out there. This is the worse electronic device I’ve ever owned.

The picture and audio quality are superb. I have this outputting to a 4K Sony projector and a 5.1 surround system through a Yamaha 683. I originally got it for its versatility. It streams, plays discs, and the second audio out helped me not have to upgrade my receiver. I ended up upgrading after a month anyway. Heres the downside. It locks up, had trouble connecting to the internet, and doesnt output 24fps on Vudu or Amazon (could be there problem). The biggest issue is lockups on 4K discs.
