Customer Ratings & Reviews

Using an Xbox One S for 4k movies vs this player, Panasonic wins. HCX processor makes HDR really shine, and with the HDR Optimizer I can adjust picture quality through the player and not my tv. I'm not even mad about it not playing Dolby Vision. I'm using an LG Nano Cell and the fact that this player allows me to chose my tv type for optimal settings was just a bonus. I've watched a few reference disc and I was FLOORED. Black Hawk Down, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood all looked outstanding. Billy Lynn's Long Halftime in 4k 60FPS on this player is amazing. Words of Wisdom I leave my player unplugged when not in use since it does get a little warm when it's off. I have a Panasonic SA-XR25 receiver and that remote works for the DP-UB420 and vice versa. I'm using the coaxial for audio and PCM output is outstanding. Without upgrading my 6.1 system, I noticed the sound improvement. This player is a beast. I had a Panasonic Plasma TV and I loved it. Hooking this player up to my current TV, satisfied my 4k HDR needs. Now I need Panasonic to start selling more products like their TVs in the US again. Dedicated Panasonic Buyer

This was purchased as a gift for someone in a different household so my personal experience is limited. It was a replacement for an old unit. Installation wasn't too difficult, even for a non-techie type of person like me. It has been functioning as it should I am told. Some of the features haven't been used yet (streaming for example). Otherwise it seems to be performing as it should and seems to be a Best Buy.

The gentlemen who came out to set up our system - 75" TV, universal remote, sound bar, DVD player, and cable box - were amazing! They came in and got started immediately. They were so efficient and completed the work beautifully! They carefully gathered up all the boxes and materials and took it with them. Once everything was hooked up, they made sure Prime and Netflix were connected and then took time to show me how the universal remote worked. I can't say enough good things about this service

Super 4K Blu-Ray DVD player, excellent picture quality, sound, easy set up, would definitely recommend.

Simple to use, I have a 3-D TV and I have 3-D videos that look great!

Bought this to accompany a new 4K HDR tv and to replace my aging Sony UHP-H1 player that only offered 4K up scaling and not true UHD playback. So far I’m very happy! The menus are a little daunting(and coming from a Panasonic plasma, very familiar looking. Still better than Sony BDP menus IMO), with many options for tweaking the picture, but most of them can be left to factory defaults. Where this player shines is with the HDR Optimizer which on my low brightness television does a very nice job of tone mapping those super bright HDR highlights into something my TV can actually digest and display and without blowing out detail. You can even tweak the dynamic range to brighten the overall image on dimmer sets like mine while still retaining specular highlight detail, which is amazing. Makes a little noise on startup reading 4K discs but during playback it’s very quiet. The remote is annoying and you absolutely will inadvertently hit the Netflix button more than you should. Haven’t had one freeze-up or disc that caused issues with the player and the image quality is indeed an improvement over my old player.

Excellent accessory for my LG OLED 65" TV. Produces a sharp and highly detailed picture.

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.

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.

This Panasonic Blu ray 4K is just amazing, the capability of the features it have a long with the sound a videos,also affordable, I'll recommend this to anyone who loves to watch movies.

Very nice player. Will up convert dvd to 4k. Has dual HDMI. The reason why this review is not 5 stars is the subtitle activation. To get subtitle, you need to go through a maze of menu. Also the remote button setting is terrible. Constantly hitting the wrong button and getting Netflix in the middle of a disc movie. Why can't everyone use the same layout!

Absolutely fantastic. No problems with it so far at all. This is a solid player. The only thing i'm not too crazy about is the front face flip down. It just feels like a lot could go wrong with that. A simple tray would have worked just fine.

I love this 4k player it really elevates the movie and makes it feel more intense. I got it for my living room but I just might have to purchase another for my bedroom! It is amazing!

Very nice. Easy to use. Small and sleek design. Gives a very nice picture. Easy set up also

Sometimes, it can be overly complicated and feels chaeply made. Have an older LG 4K player and performs the same and It feels much more sturdy. it never runs hot. Seems like for the money, a nice component should be made of a sturdy material and easier interface.

This is a really solid middle of the road player. It doesn't have the Dolby vision that the 820 has, but it makes up for the lack by having much less sensitivity to tiny specks of dust and imperceptible smudges. Very happy overall.

easy to set up and operate. Performance is excellent.

I had to replace my 15 year old BluRay player, and this unit filled the bill.

Arrived safely, prromptly, and in perfect working order. Will be checking best buy open box listings for all my electronics! Oh and this blu ray player is great, 4k uhd and upscaling, easy to use!

I never had a blu-ray. So buying this one that takes blue ray and dvds and cds. Is great!!!
