After giving up on Sony, I went with the "fan favorite" Panasonic UB820. I haven't had any issues with it, and it just generally looks better with both 4K discs and upscaling standard blu-rays. Also something to keep in mind with the UB820 is that it's one of the Panasonic players that lets you bypass some region locks on Region B/C discs.
These players are just very hit or miss, some are good, others aren't.
If you buy, play some 4k discs during your return window and make sure ya got a good one

Another plus is the PQ looks better with all 3 disc formats.
Don't forget to turn on/off DV when needed, Sony states it's required.
"If you're also a gamer, it may be worth taking a look at the Xbox One S, which can play Ultra HD Blu-ray discs with HDR10, and costs just a touch more than the UBP-X700."
Hmm, that's an oddly not-glowing statement in an otherwise glowing review. You can get XB1S's used for $50 all over the place. No DV, though.
Almost always $160 for this thing. Not the greatest, not bad, I would wait for the Panasonic 820 which is the best

It's best for slickdealers to simply wait until they are $100 or $50, imo.
If everyone waited, prices would be much cheaper.
For now, 4K Blurays only make sense if one already wants or has a PS5 or compatible XB imo.

Don't think that is close to "exactly same thing"!
