Better reproduction of our legacy DVD and BluRay discs, as advertised. Reasonably convenient to set up. Have not yet discovered how to access the disc menu, but I just need to RTFM.

This Panasonic does it all. Love the concept of this equipment. I can use it for multiple things.

clearly: “This Panasonic DVD player was advertised as supporting Amazon Prime Video, but the app is completely non-functional. I bought this specifically for streaming and feel misled. Panasonic support was not helpful. Be aware before purchasing.”i was able to login but it kicked me out. We exchanged the player and stilk didnt work.

This is a good option for playing back 4K and Blu-ray Disc. The only complaint is the interface which seems 20 yrs behind, lack of apps in web services. Hoping Panasonic releases a firmware update to improve functionality and options.

Super easy set and was compatible with my Samsung soundbar and Sony tv.

Bought at a best buy store on 16 March and returned less than 24 hours later. If you want to use any configuration other than the most basic or a "typical" setup good luck. Overly complicated interface (some of which is labelled in a non-intuitive way), horribly written manual, and worst of all THEIR SUPPORT IS USELESS! I wanted to was use the optical port to route the audio to my DAC which is why i got this model since it had an optical port. Easy right? LOL!!! After reading the manual to troubleshoot and do the up-up-down-square-circle-ctrl-alt-delete to get the settings supposedly right it still didn't work. Tried to use chat support which was ABSOLUTELY, UTTERLY USELESS English as a second language? Try English as a 5th language and the chat support person who must have been handling 5,000 other calls besides mine based on response times. I tried explaining the issue 4 different ways without success. She went on about how my DAC needed to have ARC support which made absolutely no sense considering a) arc support is for HDMI DACs and 2) the audio worked during initial setup and if I play a file from a USB drive it also works. Firmware was up to date. I asked 3 times to just walk me through the setup to make sure I didn't miss something from the garbage manual but she went on useless tangents. I asked for a phone number so I could do phone support and after going through the prompts on phone support the automated ESL voice said they no longer provide phone support for blu ray players!!! I feel bad for people who spend their hard earned money on their high end gear. Returned this useless junk to the store and got a different brand for $100 less and the optical port worked right out of the box! Amazing! I used to trust Panasonic as the 55" plasma HDTV was an absolute workhorse so I expected quality and support from them. I see now they're no better, if not worse, than any of the brands I used to consider "3rd" tier. The fact they can't get an optical port to work on their product and have less than zero support tells me everything I need to know about ever considering another one of their products. Never again, Panasonic. Never again.

Easy to connect. Delivered as promised. Plays DVD and Blu ray.

Horrible player. Just one problem after another since I got it. Can't handle discs that a standard Blu-ray player plays completely fine. One day, it wouldn't even play video -- just audio. (Yes, I tried multiple HDMI cables, including one that had worked fine with it before.) Overall very glitchy and would not recommend, especially at a $250 price point.

Works well with new pristine discs. If you have any older discs or used discs it will lock up or skip. Discs must be spotless. Very little error correction.

After a year, the player has more trouble booting to the home screen each time I use it. I have to spend minutes turning it off and on and unplugging it and plugging it back in before it will display the home menu.

Hardly ever used it. Bought it in 2020. Bought a four year warranty for it also. Not sure if it’s still good or not. Today I turned it on and an update popped up. When I tried to move the thing to say yes, it didn’t respond. In fact everything I tried to do on it didn’t respond. Now this is a piece of junk. I hardly ever used it, and when I tried it was dead in the water. Don’t buy one!

I purchased this unit Feb 12 and after hooking it up it seemed to be fine. After playing a standard dvd for a while the screen would go black and then come back on. I thought at first there was a glitch in the dvd but it started doing it more frequently. I then played the dvd in another bluray player and it played fine. I guess I ended up with a defective player. Weather permitting, it goes back to the store tomorrow.

Cannot resume any blu-ray. Player will read a blu-ray at first and if one turns it off and tries to resume, not working anynore

Have to unplug it two times a day to keep it working, it locks up
