Released earlier this year, the UBP-X700U is an updated version of TechRadars choice for the best budget 4K Blu-ray player, the Sony UBP-X700 . It
regularly sells for $299.99, and has only once seen a discount this good, and that was during the last Prime Day sale in July.

The main difference between the Sony UBP-X700U and its predecessor is that
the new model loses the built-in streaming capability that most people likely didnt use since streaming is now a common feature on smart TVs. Like the UBP-X700U, it supports Dolby Vision and has dual HDMI outputs, one for audio and video and the other audio-only.
