Since Ms. Killjoy brought it up I'll give my opinion from personal experience.

Main difference is DV and the extra adjustments with "tone mapping modes" are more for people that like to tweak their PQ, example are PJ owners.
Since PJ's can't do DV the 820 is way overkill.

The 420 processes HDR better than any player in this price range(it's the same as the 820).
Since DV is dynamic HDR you get whatever the transfer of the movie gives you.
Depending on that transfer, the HDR processing on the 420 can rival a movie with DV.

The bigger difference is upscaling to 4K, the 420 does that even better.
It does it so well that depending on the transfer of the movie, BD disc may rival 4k streaming.

This player will give you the best PQ from all three disc formats and no issues that people often bring up with other players.

If you have a home theater speaker set up, physical media is worth it over streaming. If you're using the speakers built into your TV or a soundbar, you won't notice much difference with blu ray vs streaming. The immense difference is in the audio quality.

Appears 820 has dolby vision. I thought it also had more HDR Tone Mapping modes or something extra in it's HDR Optimizer…

Better if you just have Samsung tv which doesn't do Dolby vision and just does HDR 10 and 10 +

I have Xbox series x. How does it perform 4k playback if compared with this 4k player?

Was wondering the same thing. Picked up the Sony, but now wondering if I should return and get this. My main TV does not have Dolby Vision, but I do plan on replacing it within the next two years to one that does. Not sure if the difference between HDR and Dolby Vision is that noticeable.
The one with the best upscaler probably matters most, as 99% of my collection is blu-ray.

I don't know if the quality has gone down hill but my first blue ray player I got in 2012 was a Panasonic unit and I am happy to report that it does last a long thing as mine died last week do to a power surge, so if you are concerned about how long this would last it will last you a long time.

I'm not a Blu ray collector and my ps5 and Xbox are more than enough for my few disc's. I stream 99.9%. If you are in the same boat get the nvda shield

Consoles don't have dolby vision support for blu ray playback

Even if your Sony TV has Dolby Vision, apperently you still need it for the blu ray too.
