One of the biggest differences between watching a film via your Blu-ray player and using a streaming service is that Blu-ray players can often play in higher resolution, provided you have a compatible 4K TV. What do Blu-ray players offer that streaming services still don't? We explore what you're missing if you don't own one, plus we weigh up the costs of both. Find out what our experts thought in our full review of the Sony UBP-X800M2.
The list of features feels almost endless, but that doesn't mean a thing if its picture and sound quality are feeble. However, it does skip out on offering catch-up TV services such as BBC iPlayer. But in short, it gives you access to some of the most popular streaming services such as Nextflix and Prime Video, which you can access if you have a paid subscription. The UBP-X800M2 is smart compatible (more on that below). You will need a compatible TV for these to work, though. To improve your visual experience, the Sony UBP-X800M2 has two High Dynamic Range formats - HDR10 and Dolby Vision - both of which are designed to improve accuracy and deliver detailed picture quality while you're watching content. It also allows you to play 3D discs but, as with 4K, this will only be useful if you've got a 3D TV to watch them on. This model will work well if your Blu-ray collection includes a range of disc formats, as it plays DVDs, Blu-rays, 4K discs, and can even upscale discs to 4K. It comes with two HDMI outputs and a coaxial output, which you use to connect your audio system, for example a sound bar, to your Blu-ray player. Like its predecessor, it offers the standard Blu-ray player features as well as some smart capabilities.
