Customer Ratings & Reviews

this is so tiny and yet does it all and worth every cent ...my dvds look great and and hook up was a breeze and i love going into the store because every one in dover del store is so wonderful. My last Panasonic blue ray lasted forever and so when i went in to get another one i was delighted that it was so stream line and small . good job Panasonic.. it goes well with my Samson tv i also got at BB

I first bought the #820 Model. Great picture. Great everything. It was so good with my 75" series 9 Quantum Dot HDR TV that it was on 24/7. SO......I bought its little brother to give it a rest. (BUY EXTENDED WARRANTEES). Note: I do not feel sorry for people that do not buy extended warrantees, these things are made in China. (If it was made in the USA it would cost $1000.00 and still could fall apart.) Back to review...The little brother the #420 has the exact same GPU (guts inside). Same picture and same sound. I only use HDR10+ so Dolby Vision is not an issue. I also think that anything "Dolby" is like "THX". Just a brandname to charge more money. OH' and the remote is even the same. I got a small quiet fan to put in back, all these players run hot and caring for them, keeping the discs clean and wiping down with a anti-static will prolong the life for a long time. It has been 3 weeks with this player running 24/7 (my dog watches the TV) and ZERO problems. Cheers!

Have had for quite a while and zero issues. Great for the price compared to others.

I tried multiply 4k players and this is the best one....simply because the Panasonics optimizer feature is stunning.....gives HDR movies that Wow factor. Only downfall.....no Dolby Vision....if you want Dolby Vision, you have to step up to the ub820 and the price almost doubles. But, if you own a Samsung TV....then this is perfect since Samsung cant display Dolby Vision......makes this the best 4k player for all the Qled lovers !!

An expensive DVD/blue ray HD 4K player that so worth the money, makes my movies I'm watching enjoyable with color richness etc.

I bought this player on sale from the Best Buy website and had it delivered. It arrived on time, so I was very happy about that. Unboxing and hooking up the player also went pretty quickly. Once I powered the player on I did the typical plug and play settings that you do with most devices nowadays. I also performed a software update during this time, which did take a bit of time to complete. So far, I have watched 3 blu-rays with this unit. It performed very well with really great picture and sound quality. I have not tested or used the networking functions of this unit yet. My 4k TV has internet functions built in, so I stream using the TV itself. I probably won't really use the player's networking features for that reason. The small footprint of this player is nice, so it can fit in smaller spaces. Build quality is just ok, but I do like the design of the remote. I prefer the design of this remote over the one that comes with many Sony players. One feature that I really like is the ability to choose your own background for the home screen. While this player will not be as nice as many of the higher end Panasonics or Sony's, it is a great deal for those who want a player that isn't the most entry-level, but not so high end that it will break the bank. So far, I am pretty happy with this unit.

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

easy to set up and operate. Performance is excellent.

Besides this player being picky on playing video files I play from a USB drive, this is the best 4K Blu-ray player I've used. Plays disc content flawlessly and makes sure everything looks and sounds great.

Easily integrated into my home entertainment/theater center, as a replacement for my old Blu-ray player. Recommended by my son.

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.

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

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!

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

Great 4K player, amazing quality and ease of usage.

Tremendous 4K player, very impressive. One of the most impressive 4K players we've seen in a very very long time. It hits the sweet spot between quality and affordability.

This BluRay player delivers high quality performance as expected from a respected company.

The Blue Ray Player works perfectly. It is easy to use and I enjoy using it. I know it was an Open Box special and was supposed to be complete and inspected, however it was missing the HDMI Cable. That was a minor inconvenience because I was unable to use it as soon as it arrived. I had to borrow a cable from a neighbor until I was able to order an HDMI Cable from Amazon.

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.

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.
