Sony"s $300 Ultra HD Blu-ray player will arrive in March

The XBR-X930E and XBR-X940E are at the top of the line, with a slim backlighting system that Sony claims can provide 10x the contrast of most LED-lit TVs and a more powerful processor that’s supposed to adjust the contrast on each individual object in a picture. In the middle are the XBR-900E with full array local dimming and a step-down processor, followed by the XBR-800E/XBR-X850E that drops the local dimming.


In terms of price, they go from a 43-inch XBR-43X800E that’s $1,000, to the top of the line 75-inch XBR-75X940E with a $7,500 pricetag. There’s no exact release date, but Best Buy is taking preorders, and they should arrive in March.


Sony UBP-X800 Ultra HD Blu-ray player


Whether you have one of these TVs or now, Sony is also getting ready to deliver its Ultra HD Blu-ray player (since there isn’t one in the PS4 Pro), the UBP-X800. It will also ship in March, with a price of $300, and is open for preorder from Amazon and Best Buy. Still, it’s a little harder to recommend, when there are other options like the similarly-priced Xbox One S, or Oppo’s $550 UDP-203 that adds support for future Dolby Vision HDR discs.
