Note that most glasses are proprietary to a particular brand of TV — please consult your user manuals prior to purchase. Note that there are select 3D-enabled computers that may be available with "auto-stereoscopic" displays — these are displays that allow the user to view 3D without the use of 3D glasses.
These displays may not be able to offer full p quality. Some people who seem to have normal every-day depth perception may have trouble viewing filmed content in 3D. If you have had trouble seeing 3D images in theaters, you may not be able to see 3D at home. Please see your 3DTV manufacturer's instructions for additional guidance. To viewers not wearing 3D glasses, the 3D image on the screen will appear distorted. There is currently no technology that allows a single 3DTV to display both 2D and 3D content simultaneously without glasses.

This mid-range Sony is a bit more capable - and a bit more expensive - than those at the budget end of the market.
While it lacks a display on the player itself, its feature set more than makes up for it. It even has Bluetooth, for streaming audio to a pair of wireless headphones - a godsend for late-night viewing. You have to manually enable Dolby Vision for supported content, which is a bit annoying it should just happen automatically , but this player's superb performance still makes it easy to recommend. Making a Blu-ray player for such a low price is no easy feat.
Making a good Blu-ray player at this level is more difficult, and a great one harder still. If you can live without the 4K Blu-ray playback, the Panasonic is perfect for any entry-level home cinema set-up. Detail levels, colour balance and motion handling are all excellent for the money. Its dynamic delivery is exciting to listen to, voices sound clear and the whole presentation is pretty balanced. There's no shortage of excellent 4K Blu-ray players to choose from at the premium end of the market, and the UBP-XES also deserves to be on the list.
Its picture is anything but, though. The Sony serves up a balanced, natural and nuanced image, which displays great depth and an impressive amount of detail. It's a musical player too, with excellent timing and a fine sense of rhythm with music and movies alike. The DP-UB is another player to throw into the mix if you're in the market for a premium machine. Nestled between the Pioneer and Cambridge in this list, the Panasonic is a feature-packed option with excellent picture and sound quality.
Its menu system is a little overcomplicated, but once you've got the Panasonic set up for your particular display, it serves up an entertaining and attention-grabbing image, bursting with colour. There's a great sense of depth and realism to 4K images that makes you sit up and take notice. Soundtracks are delivered with plenty of weight and power, which is just what you want from a premium player like this. The Pioneer just about pips it for outright musical ability, but the Panasonic DP-UB is still well worth auditioning.
Some home cinema set-ups demand a player with even more focus than the more budget-friendly machines higher up this list. At this level, premium build quality and high-grade components are par for the course, as is the attempt to bring you the best picture and sound possible. Feed the player a 4K disc and the picture that greets you is breathtaking.
It paints a balanced picture, packed with sensational levels of detail. And the Pioneer sounds as good as it looks, displaying weight, power and a fine sense of musicality and timing. There's no smart functionality, nor is there a set of multi-channel analogue outputs for legacy AV receivers, but if you've got the budget and a suitable home cinema system to play it through, this 4K Blu-ray player will blow you away.
The only trouble is that the LX appears to be out of production. As such, prices are absurd. Best home cinema deals Dan is a staff writer at What Hi-Fi?
