![]() The new units we did add come from Sony and LG, and the Sony model actually has a great streaming platform built in (as do some others on our list), so you could reasonably use it as your primary cord-cutting device, as well. What's more, it seems that Panasonic has pretty much left the game entirely, offering no new models and rendering the last players they produced more or less unobtainable. We were able to find only a pair of new models worth including on our list, as more and more users are turning to streaming boxes to get their content fix. To say that this market category has stalled would be something of an understatement. It can even stream in 4K, though it doesn't seem to be able to handle UHD Blu-rays. ![]() Of course, if budget is a primary concern, the Sony Streaming BDP-S3700 remains a viable choice. Now, we're only so many months removed from the release of their next generation of consoles, but if you don't want to wait or fork over the obscene cost that's being projected, this makes a wise selection. One of the cool things the company has done in this and the Sony UBP-X800M2 is to design a chassis that all but eliminates unit vibrations caused by the spinning of the disc or even the rumble of a subwoofer in your sound system, which can keep a potentially annoying rattling out of the experience.įor anyone looking for an all-in-one solution, the Xbox One X is still a fantastic choice. The Sony UBP-X1100ES 4K, for example, is a model that continues to push the boundaries in terms of both video and audio performance. While it seems like a lot of major companies are diverting resources away from these types of players and toward the hardware that supports a continuing cord-cutter revolution, some are still finding ways to innovate. ![]()
