Customer Ratings & Reviews

We bought this to replace an older player and because we had bought a new TV that wasn't compatible with the older machine. The picture and options are clear. It was very easy to set up and the remote from our Samsung TV operates the machine without having to use more than one. Nice and inexpensive machine.

I'm very happy with this player's performance and picture quality as well as the price. I only use it for watching movies so any shortcomings concerning music playback are of no concern to me. I also own two OPPO players and as far as I'm concerned the picture quality is equal and even better in some instances. It's a great value even at full price.

The video quality on Blu-ray’s and the up scaling on DCDs is excellent! The smart features are annoying as once connected to a smart TV this device continuously tries to take the system over. It reads that you turn the TV on and turns itself on and selects itself as primary source. Turn the power off on the device and try to select a streaming service on your TV, it turns itself back on and the TV switches to it again. The only way to stop the cycling is to unplug the Blu-ray player and reset the TV.

Easy to use with my LG 4K Smart TV. Image quality is excellent. Functions operate with no issues, though I would like better top menu displays. I’m very happy with this purchase.

Order!!!!! don't just grab the Sony in store it doesn't do half of what you get with this guy it's awesome

This player works great- picture is sharp with great color, lots of detail in dark areas with HDR. Some take issue with the lack of Dolby Vision in this player, but I haven't missed it, mainly due to the presence of a feature called HDR Optimizer. You can select the type of TV you have (by luminance) and this player handles the tone mapping, tailoring it to that type of TV. So no matter how expensive or cheap your TV is, you can get an excellent picture from this player.

I've really enjoyed this 4K blu-ray player so far. We've had it about 5 weeks and have watched about ten movies so far. 4K native movies look amazing and this player will allow you to max out the picture quality on many TVs (up to 60Hz refresh rate). Up-converted full HD blu-ray movies look excellent too. I've been using and enjoying the features on this player more than I thought I would. Confirmed that full HD and 4K discs are playing at higher bit rates than what we were able to stream them at due to bad compression and throttled/limited streaming bit rates from Netflix and Prime. This leads to a MUCH better quality viewing with higher detail level that was immediately noticable! I also appreciate the separate audio/video output option so that you can directly connect Dolby Atmos-level sound quality straight to a sound system.

Easy set up, good picture. Remote control is better than Sony's, but you can stretch to full screen old letterbox DVDs on Sony DVD players. Time will tell if it outlasts Sony players

Love the ease of use and the clarity! I have a Samsung tv, so the lack of Dolby vision doesn’t bother me.

Bought based on several review sites recommendations. My first Blu-ray player but we use DVDs frequently. Great image quality, audio decoding, HDR color rendition, 4K upscaling and at a decent price.

Fabulous Blu-Ray player. Could not be more pleased.

Haven't used often, but so the few times we watched blu-ray DVD's it worked fine. Remote is a little confusing, but I guess you can get used to it.

Nice budget 4K player. Got it on sale for $99 over the holidays. However... I wouldn't have payed full price (almost $200). Supports HDR10 plus and Dolby Atmos, but no Dolby Vision. Also just had to do an exchange for the player. Unit started freezing in the main menu once a disc would finish playing. Would have to eject the disc, and reload. It eventually wouldn't power off or eject the disc unless the unit was unplugged, and plugged back in. Eventually got it to play discs again, but decided to return for a replacement before the temporary return policy was up. I'm guessing it was a faulty unit. Currently awaiting another player. Hopefully this one doesn't do the same thing. Aside from that, the video looks great once the settings are dialed in. Worth it on sale, but not full price.

First went with the Sony x700 which is a pretty solid player and then ran across some videos on YouTube about this player and man what a difference! My tv is 4K but doesn’t get bright enough to take good advantage of hdr. Colors were some what washed out. Not with this Blu-ray player! Colors are much more vibrant and there is also much more control over picture settings within the player. There are several options for boosting brightness and contrast without overblowing the picture. There are 3 presets for changing contrast on the remote. The sound is also much better if that was even possible. Clarity is much better and bass seem to be deeper and more define. This is a solid player and is a must if you have a tv that is under 500 nits of brightness.

WORKES VERY GOOD AND EASY TO HOOK UP. SO FARE PITURE QUALITY AND SOUND IS EXCELLENT.

Excellent picture, but high price. Worth the cost though

Plays every 4k UHD video I can throw at it. This was one of the cheaper players and it works flawlessly.

This is my first 4K player and I am satisfied with it so far. After waiting years to purchase one I finally landed on this model. Mostly because of the reviews but also due to brand recognition and reliability. My Panasonic Blu-ray player which I bought over 10 years ago is still up and running. I’m not super technical so I can’t provide specs to make comparisons to other brands or models but Panasonic definitely makes a good product. I have had no freezing issues and the player runs quietly. One thing I did note in some of the negative reviews were freezing issues but when I looked around I found some suggestions. A decent hdmi cable & updating the firmware. Even though I had no issues I did both of those things right out of the box. This machine rests comfortably in between the more top of the line 4K players and the cheap off brand models. I really like how some of my Blu-ray Discs look on this player too. I do not use it for streaming. If you’re looking for the newest most advanced machine look elsewhere. If your like me who appreciates the reliability of older tech then this might be for you.

4k DVD is so much better than streaming. I have 0 issues with this player, besides maybe the unnecessary inclusion of optional streaming apps and wifi connection. I watched arcane and Dune and it was mind blowing how good it looked. 0 artifacting, great color, great sound.

Awesome replacement for am old Samsung 4k bd player. The rich HDR settings sre great. The upscale from DVD and BD is awesome also. Grest value for the pricr.
