    What does this do that is $1,100 better than an xbox one s?

      Dolby Vision (Xbox only supports it streaming)
      HDR optimiser/tone mapping is huge

      The $650 820 model does the same though.

        HDR optimiser/tone mapping is huge

        It's probably huge if you've got a sh!tty kogan tv. Buy something with decent nits & this is a waste of time.

          Wrong.

          Actually it's the dead opposite. If buying a lower cost TV, and you probably won't miss the optimiser and any money spent on it would be be better invested in a TV upgrade.

          As someone who swapped my Sony X-800, I can't believe how big the difference is.

          Even via YouTube compression on a phone screen you can see the difference here:

      Beats me but if you do some research and comparison, you will find some answers.

      It’s like asking why buy a BMW X5 when you can buy a KIA Sorrento

      • Frayin on 25/05/2019 - 22:51
        +7

        So you buy the $1,300 (BMW) for that imaginary status symbol, cool, cool, got you.

        • netsurfer on 25/05/2019 - 23:43

          Basically, it offers HDR upscaling (that's not the correct term, but probably the easiest way to explain it). If you have contents which do not support HDR, it has the hardware to apply HDR to it. Its 1080p to 4K upscaling could also be better than XB1S/XB1X.

          It also does hardware audio decoding so you have 7.1 analog audio output (which XB1S/XB1X doesn't do - so if you want to do 7.1 speakers with XB1S/XB1X, you need a home theater system), but with this player, you could connect directly to speakers if you want to. Works with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa.

          Don't get me wrong, my only UHD player is XB1X and I don't have 7.1 setup. I also only have 2 UHD movies. However, when I visited my mate's place with proper home theater setup, I was very impressed. I cannot afford a home theater setup, but I don't see a need to tease this (even if it may not be good value for money for most people).

      So how will the Xbox One S connect to legacy high end home theater without proper analogue DAC out?

      Cool story

  • BellaWii on 25/05/2019 - 22:33

    Doesn’t the 420 model do the same?

    • choodi on 25/05/2019 - 22:52

      Nah, the 420 model just gets baked and eats munchies.

    • boredofficeworker on 26/05/2019 - 00:43

      420 has HDR Optimiser yes, however, it lacks Dolby Vision.

    Will wait for the 8K models..

      Will wait for 8K movies.

      • jv on 26/05/2019 - 01:42

        Same here… Not long to go…

          8K streaming will break the NBN

            @Elyxar: NBN breaks itself.

              @vlahka: After five years of virtually trouble-free FTTP NBN I would hate to go back to my old unreliable ADSL2+.

              This does seem like a lot of money to shell out for a format that will soon be superseded. I do wonder how long 8K will be around before the next upgrade comes along.

              But, if you have the cash and you spend a lot of time watching 4K content, 20% off seems like a good deal.

              @vlahka: Already broken.

          • xoom on 26/05/2019 - 20:45

            @Elyxar: Nbn need no such help.

      • FXx on 26/05/2019 - 20:15

        8k isn't even distinguishable on panel TV at regular viewing distances, waste of time. You'd never see the difference. Marketing ploy to get everyone to buy new stuff is all. A heap of tests on the web.

    Does this support Dolby Atmos like my Sony UBP-X800?

    • superforever on 26/05/2019 - 09:09

      Audio decode are from your AV receiver or sound bar

  • g12345567 on 26/05/2019 - 09:04

    Would go well with the new $1499 Sony 43" X80G LED 4K UHD Android TV.

    • superforever on 26/05/2019 - 09:08

      You should get at least 65" for 4K

      • FXx on 26/05/2019 - 20:18

        Yet at the regular 3-4m viewing distance, you get no better experience over 1080p anyway.

        Better off buying the best panel you can (OLED) and not bothering with 4k discs. On a projector, maybe. Panel TV, pointless. Pixel gain alone is BS.

  • zoomzoomzoom on 26/05/2019 - 09:21

    Honestly, it is over the budget for the average person. Most people will be thinking that. From what I can see it has really good analogue componentry but most people will only use HDMI. I am looking for a good deal on the ub820 as it has the dolby vision, etc and similar video processing as the 9000 but without the audio-file analogue and retains the older UI and remote but it is half the price.
