Isnt the image quality not as good as some of the real 4k blu-ray players as well?

I guess its cheap... but if it doesnt play all discs, and it does it worse than products designed for it... oh well.

Real UHD players have (ultra) superior sound quality and better picture quality and don't make as much noise. The ub900 upconverts chroma using a dedicated processor and special logarithms. Shadow detail is remarkable when your TV is calibrated correctly, which is kind of a deal maker or braker.

A wrongly set up TV (start at putting it in cinematic mode) ie not able to show the finest details, especially if the blacks are crushed. Or everything is way to vibrant (to much contrast or blacklight) , artificial sharpened  (put that value at zero) or fuzzy (to much gamma or brightness). Usually put color at warm or warm 2, since the standard tv's colour temperature tends to be too low/blue.

 

When those values are set up correctly which can be done using a blu ray from pixar like wall-e and look at extra's. The difference between players should become visible especially in scenes that demand subtlety.
