Our take on the LG UBK80 4K Ultra-HD Blu-Ray Player With HDR Compatibility
The LG UBK80 is a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray player that also plays standard Blu-ray and DVD discs and supports HDR10 on compatible TVs. It has two HDMI outputs, so you can send video straight to a 4K TV and audio separately to an older receiver. It has no built-in Wi-Fi and no streaming apps, so it is a disc-first player rather than an all-in-one media box. Buyers who mainly want sharp disc playback and a simple wired setup get the essentials; anyone who wants apps or wireless streaming should look at players that include them.
