Excelente calidad de este Bluray 4K Ultra HD... que además de su gran calidad en Imagen y Audio, tiene la capacidad de reproducir la mayoría de los formatos digitales incluso SACD (Super Audio CD).La posibilidad de poder reproducir BD y DVD's de cualquier región lo hace un equipo Top

Just tried to play a Region 2 DVD and got "Playback prohibited by region code" message.No instructions inside box on which color represents which region, but I tried all 4. Power off, Yellow, Power On, DVD Icon on screen, Play, Error Message. Rinse, Repeat.Quite possible I'm doing something really stupid, but my previous Sony Region Free always worked without issue.Not happy that I'm looking at returning this, but will.

Es un Player SONY original (modificado por una compañía para hacerlo multiregión, similar a los que se modifican para usarse en la ISS) excelente producto, vienen las instrucciones para hacer los cambios de región en los formatos DVD (los formatos más restrictivos) soporta sistema PAL (europeo) y NTSC. Bastante completo, hace upscale de formatos de resolución baja a formato 4K (con sus debidas limitaciones)

After a disk issue was resolved the unit works perfectly, both as a 4k player, and a region free player. Recommend

This is a heavy, well-built blue ray player. Haven't tried a 4K blue-ray yet, but bought it to be future-proof in case I start collecting those. Regular blue ray plays flawlessly including UHD which looks great on our TV. The menu system is decent--- let's be honest, no disc player has an apple-like user experience -- but it's better than most. I played a european-region DVD (Notre Dame on Fire -- great docu-reenactment) and it just worked, I didn't even have to go through the region-change process. Finally, this is built like a tank. It's heavy, metal, pretty big. Not your all-plastic junk that will break.

So far no freezing or skips. In fact, this machine plays damaged discs that my old Blu Ray player did - or could not play.Let me also reiterate for those of y’all, that may not know: the 4k picture is truly better than any other small screen. If you are streaming, you are not truly seeing the beautiful crisp depth that a hard copy 4k disc can deliver. To get this you will need a 4k tv, a high speed HDMI cable, a 4k Blu ray player and a 4k UHD Blu ray disc.For those of us that care about picture quality this is the only way to go. For those of us that care about streaming censorship, or streaming availability, then hard copies of your favorites is a great investment.

Reproduce casi cualquier media que le pongas en alta calidad tanto video y musica.Se ajustó muy bien a la pantalla Samsung que uso.Hay dos cosas que podrían mejorar:1. NO hay salvapantallas cuando estas escuchando música (o no encuentro en el menú como ponerlo).2. No tiene app para controlar por wifi o BT (o no la he encontrado).

I was skeptical cause of so many reviews various places, but this thing works perfectly. I'm a horror movie collector, and spent some time in the UK. While there I bought some Dvds not knowing of region codes at the time. So imagine my surprise when I came home and realized they wouldn't work in any of my players. If you google Region Free Blu-ray player, this is one of the first choices. Not on here though it recommended best buy, but the same model. I checked the specs and it didn't say all region, but it didn't say it wasn't. Also as far as formats, it plays everything under the sun so I figured it would work. Nope! So I took that one back and found they only way to get the region free models was thru stores that mod them. I actually found this stores actual website before finding the Amazon store. I had some questions and their customer service was very prompt and informative. They assured me it was region free, and they were right. It plays all region dvds with no settings adjustments. To switch to region A, B, and C it there's an easy to follow instructions sheet to use with the remote. If you have any issues with any kind of playback error, you can reach out to them at any time for support. Would definitely buy again and recommend you do as well!

The Sony Ultra 4K X-800M2 player is a solid build and offers HDR10 and Dolby Vision playback capabilities, Dolby Atmos and DTS:X as well as hi-res audio support and a host of fantastic other features. Fayz Electronics shipped the player in less than 7 days and assured me that it was an original product from Sony with Multi region code free player that includes Netflix and youtube streaming, however prime video is missing. The player I received is original from the seller with a sealed box from Malaysia. On performance, the 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray discs and standard Blu-ray discs all lived upto its expectations and displayed onscreen HDR10 content. The player can play almost all audio files formats FLAC, ALAC and even DSD for audiophiles. Blu-ray/DVD upscaling is not that great, its not worth trying to upscale all your favorite old low definition movies on your 4K screen. Use the BRAVIA mode as the feature is optimized for BRAVIA Sony TVs. Overall, One of the best players from Sony with excellent image quality, and is a good choice if you are looking for a universal player over the Panasonic DP-UB820 which is a bit better, but more expensive.

I ordered this Sony Region Free BluRay Player through Amazon via Bombay Electronics during Stage 4 lockdown in Melbourne and it arrived in 5 days - amazing! Thank you so much for your incredible service and a fantastic product.

Thing of beauty to have a high end player that just works for different discs and regions with this level of functionality. Without even needing the button pushed it switches from region a to b. No problems and excellent picture and audio.
