Panasonic 4K Blu Ray Player heating issue resolved

Very pleased with playback video and sound quality. It was getting very hot even when it was not on. However, Drake at Best Buy in Louisville helped me and suggested that I turn off the quick start feature to fix the issue. Now it is cool to the touch when off. Great product and customer service from Drake the salesperson!

This replaced a Sony player that was 3 years old and broke. Same price range. The Panasonic has many more custom settings both for sound and video. It may not be for you if you like everything to be automatic. Great picture and sound! Very quiet operation and nice remote control only lacking backlights so you could see the buttons in the dark.

4K Blu-ray player with hi-res audio

Panasonic - DP-UB420 - Streaming 4K Ultra HD Hi-Res Audio was easy to setup. Thankfully I had a spare high speed hdmi. At the time this player was cheaper than the other hi-res audio players. The biggest problem is ... the remote. The remote has a poor layout of buttons. The buttons navigation are situated too close to Netflix button and menus. Easy to misclick. There are some of the standard streaming apps. Doesn’t support Disney plus. I would recommend a separate streaming device.
4K blu-ray visually looks great. Quick loading too. The hi-res audio sounds fantastic when watching blu-ray and other media types.

I purchased this Blu-Ray from Best Buy before, and it works well with my Home Theather System. This is one of the reasons I purchased another one as a backup as Blu-Ray players will eventually go away "not" right away and it will not be available for repair/replacement. Compared to other Blu-Ray players in the market this is most economical in price and eventually will "no" longer be available. This Blu-Ray performs well in Home Theather System and I recommend it to anybody who is looking for a less expensive player.

Panasonic makes the best Blu-ray players on the market today, period. This one is an incredible value. The only thing it's missing from its more expensive siblings is Dolby Vision, front display, and a sturdier/heavier build. None of that mattered to me, so this was perfect for the price. The improvement from my Xbox One X is very noticeable. The HDR performance is superb on my JVC projector. Don't hesitate! Amazing picture.

A 3rd 4k UHD for our home. We love physical media and needed another unit. 4K Blu-Ray provide the best experiences. This one does all of the Dolby products, Atmos and Vision as well as HDR10. It makes older Blu-Rays look fantastic as well. A very excellent player. It has APS for streaming as well including all of the major ones, Apple+, Netflix, Disney, Prime etc

Excellent 4K Player for the budget conscious

Excellent 4K player at an unbelievable price point. This player may not have Dolby but don't let that cause you to not drop a couple Franklins on this player. It comes close to matching the capabilities of it's high priced cousin at a fraction of the cost.
The remote is somewhat cumbersome but the picture quality more than makes up for that shortcoming. The picture reproduction on a 77" S90D are amazing accurate with vivid detail, no lag noticed and no perceptible noise. As one of the few manufacturers still producing players, Panasonic has made a budget friendly, top tier player that checks almost every box.

one of the best 4k players out there. Image quality at the top with the best players. I also have the big brother 820. which I think is the best player around for the price. but this player and the sony x-700 are the best budget players you can buy. the 420 does not support dolby vision and the sony does. you will love this player.

Reliable stand alone 4k Blu Ray player. Plays much better than my Xbox did. No Dolby Vision but shouldn't be a problem if your TV doesn't support it.
What's the nice surprise??? Was open box model and it came with a free copy of Gran Turismo haha.

This is an easy user friendly equipment. Plug & Play! The 4K is making my TV set (also Panasonic) using high res-Audio DVD/CD/3D Blu-Ray player a blast! Super sharp and clear! Very vivid! And you can stream your shows with Rj-45 or wireless input, or surf the net, very cool indeed. We needed an upgrade and this is an impressive machine.

4K Player Produces Great Images

If you're looking for a solid 4K player that does it all, this is the one to buy.
It produces razor-sharp images and plays Blu-ray and DVD discs as well. It even up-converts DVDs to Blu-ray quality. It will even play 3D discs.
This is a true wireless streaming player. Just find your network and add your password and you can stream many apps.
My only complaint is that at this price point it should have had a time display on the front of the unit. Higher-priced Panasonic 4K players have this function.
The Panasonic DP-UB420 is great way to view not only your 4K discs, but other formats as well.

I really like Panasonic Blu-Ray players for their quality and versatility. I still own some 3D Panasonics from pre-2010 and they work beautiful. These are real workhorses and the pictures look awesome, even on my old ones. You can't go wrong buying one of these. One thing that I did find out is I don't recommend using the Quick Start feature as I found the player was continually warm. Almost too warm across the top even when you aren't using it. Once I turned that off in settings it's just as it should be. I highly recommend these players and I will buy no other brand.

MUCH BETTER THAN SONY

DVD (BlueRay) players aren’t as good as they were back in the 1990’s. A few years ago I bought a Sony BlueRay player that was awful!! I love Panasonic and when I saw this BlueRay player advertised, I immediately purchased it. It’s not perfect, but its MUCH better than the Sony. The Panasonic has power and ejection buttons that are mechanical and actually work (I don’t end up with discs stuck in the machine). When it starts up, it’s easy to navigate to what you want to do (you don’t have to wade through a huge list of streaming services just to get to the video option like with Sony. It’s FIRST on the list). I have yet to have the computer in it get “confused” about what it’s doing, like happens with Sony. The only negative experience I’ve had so far is one disc part way through stopped playing and the player did lock up. I had to manually eject the disc to resolve the issue. In fairness, it probably was a bad disc, not the player itself.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and feedback with us! We're glad you're pleased with our product! Regarding the disc playback interruption, it's possible that the issue was related to the disc itself rather than the player. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to enjoy using your player! -M
