    Very disappointed Glad i purchased Geek Squad protection on this product which didn’t work properly out of the box and with Best Buy’s Horrible Return policy of 15 days you don’t have enough time to troubleshoot the item. Would not recommend for the price I have read many reviews and this is supposed to be the best we can get for the price at this time. Good Luck

    Received a previously owned, not working item. I could tell because the Panasonic box it came in had telltale signs that the item had been opened. Not only that, the Geek squad told me they could not fix the issue; which was, the item would not set-up. Suggestion, order on-line, but pick up the item at the store. This way you will see if the item is new or used.

    Randomly stops when playing standard DVD, cannot restart without ejecting and restarting. Picture freezes and becomes pixilated. Quality when operating is good, however. Connected to LG 4K TV with 6 foot HDMI CABLE

    Brand new: set it up, turned it on, went through all the update prompts. What does it do? Gives me a blinking red light. Can’t do anything with it. Also, can’t get my dvd back out (absolutely nothing wrong with the one I put in, btw). This is UNACCEPTABLE. Charge me $250 for this? Garbage. Getting my $$ back and never buying Panasonic again.

    Ordered during covid. This is a low end player with a moderately high price tag. On some dvds/bds, it shakes enough to rattle the flip down door. I mistakenly thought it might settle down after some use but it has not. Also thought I'd let it work for a couple of months, again to see if the drive might quiet itself and if it did not, I'd return it. Ah... BEST buy... Short return period. I'd try another but have found my window is over by 6 days. Back to Amazon for me. By by best buy.

    I got caught up in the hype, this player is not worth $2700 - $3335 at all when I got my player from bestbuy it looked ok for the design not a wow! factor like you see comments throw out there. when I put in a blue ray disc it looked terrible, colors washed out, so I check the settings which you shouldn't have to do for a $300 player and the settings were set ok. so I put in another blue ray disc and it was terrible video quality. so I put in a HDR disc and check the HDR settings and it looked terrible to me. than I realize /remember that this player doesn't play Dolby Vision movies which I had a lot of dolby Vision movies and movies are still being made with dolby vision feature a lot of these comments mention HDR 10 plus to get you caught up in the fake hype. there are NO HDR 10 PLUS MOVIES! worthless feature! finally this player wouldn't connect to the internet at all. so I returned it to bestbuy the next day and I will wait until the price drops on the Panasonic 820 which is able to play both dolby vision and hdr. so until than I will enjoy my Sony x800 which supports Dolby Vision and HDR movies wonderfully!

    Geek Squad Failure

    While Product works, it's connection through Infinity remote not fully functional. Tried to have Geek Squad fix the problem the day after product was installed without success. Instead the Geek squad set up another appointment 8 days later (Dec 10). Today is Dec 11 and Geek Squad did not call nor did they show up for the appointment. On the phone now trying to reach someone to get this issue resolved.

    Not good

    Got a lot of good reviews but I don't understand why? Load times are terrible and watching a brand new 4K disc (Why Him) it locked up twice and got pixelated a couple other times. To be fair I had a high end Sony that keeps running into issues so maybe it's just my luck? I live in the country with terrible internet speeds so I need something that plays 4k discs without locking up...not sure why that's so difficult to find?

    Loud operation. I could hear the machine humming from several feet away. No digital coaxial output, which was the final crux for me.
