Just starting to look for 4K Bluray player

I've never had 4K before, so I'm interested in all your experiences, for sound, for picture and features.

Thanks in advance.

After that the auto switching (to appropriate HDMI TV input) stopped working. Just purchased the new Sony X700 unit which is working fine. No complaints with sound/picture quality of either. I’m just biding my time with these entry level players until Oppo offers a player with the promised HDMI upgrade (2.1?) and MQA.

Works great but I couldn’t get ARC from my 4K TV to work with my receiver so I use the second HDMI out from the BDP to the receiver. Unfortunately in some cases this leads to audio sync issues which is pathetic given the cost of all this technology is well north of 10K...
