*** 4K Player Thread ***

In my experience most game codes are cheaper.

For new or popular games maybe it's the preloading thing, being able to play them on day of release is worth it to some people.
 
Picture quality may be good but No Dolby Atmos, Dolby True HD or DTS Master Audio though it seems. Thats a big negative for me.

Still wouldnt buy it just dont like Apple products.
For me even streaming 4k I just still know its not the best picture quality I could get. I`ll watch it if there is no other way like Daredevil etc on Netflix but I still prefer getting the disc.
Its a bit like having a 1080ti that you got for half price but using it on a 60hz 1080p monitor. :) Its fantastic but you know you could have it better elsewhere.
 
Just a shame MS have chosen not to offer Dolby Vision on it.

Might ask Santa for one anyway and hope it gets added down the road.

Wouldnt hold your breath market for it is still too tiny. Probably not worth paying the dolby licence. Hardly any content or TV's that support it.
 
Wow Xbox x just got tore apart on HDTV test as an HDR player.

Well he didn’t even want to test and compared it to a stand-alone as it’s that bad.

Also seems there’s a patch comming to fix the problem.

Anyone know if this has affected the Xbox s?

Comparing the Xbox One X with the Xbox One S, I was quite surprised to see similar issues on the S;
I don’t remember the S looking quite so problematic when I looked at its 4K Blu-ray abilities in the summer of 2016.
Maybe something Microsoft has done since the console launched has made 4K Blu-ray playback worse?
 
Picking up an Oppo UDP203 tomorrow, but before I commit and hand over the cash, is there anything else I should be looking at? It's going to be paired with an LG OLED55B7 if that helps as to determining alternatives

Obvious choice is panasonic ub900 if you can get it. Unless your are after sacd it's still practically untouchable.
