Just seen this listed on amazon :- 4K Ultra HD - The Premiere Collection

https://www.amazon.co.uk/4K-Ultra-H...=1473697454&sr=1-20&keywords=4k+ultra+blu+ray

Ive got 2 of the 6 films listed and not really interested in the others . Not bad for someone starting out tho. £15 a film

Seems the Bourne films are out 28th November. Will wait for a review to see if it's worth it. Seeing as you get get the 3 film box's set £12 or less on blu ray

It has support for Dolby Vision and SACD playback which is not available on other uhd players that have already released.

hmm now that has my interest peaked ... is that an official uk release or import ? Should be able to flog the panny for about £500 I hope

official, although the price is 'speculative' and it probably wont support vision out of the box, but that's a minor thing really.

Don't care about the vision part. Although sacd and dvd audio is nice.

Just took advantage of the great tesco bundle to upgrade my old X box one to the new S. Planning on getting a new 4K HDR capable TV in the next couple of months and will also need a new AV reciever. Anyone got any decent recommendations? Budget between £300-£400

I love my 4k Samsung 40" that I paid £400 for. But be aware you will get compromises. If you like sport you might be disappointed. Motion blur might be an issue.

Any other improvements? Will update later

Well it seems the Panasonic UB900 can be had for £475 on the rainforest site. Damn bargain imo

So sell them to CEX or something? You'd essentially get the other 3 for free or close enough.

I can't see them being individual cases. So selling might be a problem. I've got 3 of them but will buy at this price and keep for a mate who might want them .

TALON1973 · 20 Nov 2016 at 14:20

At the same money it would be insane to go for the 700.

Urm, again in English? Think you have a bit of a typo in there so not sure what you're recommending.

Actually it now seems I may be able to get the Sammy for £132 so I think I know which way I'm jumping

Yes a minor typo lol . Where can you get the Sammy? Could use a spare player

Panny 900 now £414 for me.

I'm seriously tempted to say "**** it" and get the 900 - if I'm spending at least £240, why not just go the whole hog and get the best model.

That will probably be the Oppo due out now. But it's closer to £600 . With the one drawback for some of it doesn't do Netflix or amazon. But seeing as most investors will have that on a 4k telly it doesn't matter.

TALON1973 · 24 Nov 2016 at 11:56

Oblivion, the huntsman and lone survivor are £15.99 at on amazon

TALON1973 · 24 Nov 2016 at 18:36

Yeah ordered them earlier and there actually £14.99

TALON1973 · 24 Nov 2016 at 18:57

Always a good reference point for the 900

TALON1973 · 5 Dec 2016 at 17:45

Ok......got Suiside Squad . Loved it . Only seen the 4k version. But why in damnation is the extended version only on the blu ray disc ?

I thought The Revenant was the reference UHD on the market by all accounts.

I think that got beaten by Pacific Rim ..... And from all accounts the 4k player on a xboxone is pants .... Its no game changer like the ps3 was for blu ray , which is a shame .

TALON1973 · 12 Dec 2016 at 20:34

Well the martian is actually 2k.... I love it myself tbh . Not many of the initial batch of releases this year are full on 4k. In regards the xboxone as a 4k player just Goodleigh reviews
