Customer Ratings & Reviews

So far product is working great. Compliments my sony a95l really well

Beautiful Picture and great having the dedicated 2nd HDMI port for older receivers. The price is the only downside but I wanted one with DolbeyVision. Great player if you can part with the cash.

Works great and easy to operate. No complaints so far.

Fantastic 4K player! Video is amazing, no issues with skipping or freezing ever! Worth every penny

All the features I wanted in a player. The menu is a little elementary but it doesn’t the trick. No Disney, Amazon music or other mainstream apps. The picture is amazing and that’s why I picked this player. Happy it did not disappoint.

I bought this model based on many of you tube recommended reviews. What a great player what really knocked me out is it’s ability to upscale not just blue rays but DVD’s just amazing. What a great 4K player worth every penny imho.

Everything is Great: Video Quality, Audio Quality and it does too little noise! I don't use it to stream stuff but I only tried it once with Netflix and it had no problems playing a 4K video.

Looks nice and works well. Picture quality is great. Disc loading can be audible, but playback is essentially silent. Lots of settings to customize things like display brightness in various modes, etc.

After finding out the new Xbox and Playstation could not support Blu-Ray 3D payback, I was thankful to find this Panasonic locally at Best Buy. Currently running this through my AWOL 3500 PRO on a 120" wall mounted screen and the Panasonic has worked flawlessly in both Blu-Ray 3D as well as 4k. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a standalone 4k player with Blu-Ray 3D support, especially since Playstation and Xbox have no plans to support Blu-Ray 3D anymore.

Haven't spent enough time with this player to do a truly comprehensive review, but so far it is really impressive. Judging by the settings and specs -- this is a very capable unit. Although I haven't done a careful side-by-side with another player, I am immediately impressed by the picture quality of this Panasonic. Even when viewing an old, standard DVD (i.e., not Blu-Ray or 4K disc), the level of fine detail is evident. I look forward to future viewing and to investigating the audio-specific qualities of this player. The one knock I have is with the layout of the remote control, which is very similar to another Panasonic remote that I generally think is just about the worst remote I regularly use. It is not worthy of association with this Blu-Ray player.

I bought this platter for the Dolby Vision and the hdr optimization it does. I did a lot of research and I am glad I went with this one. The display picture is great.

I received my player a couple of weeks ago. The Panasonic UB420 is an excellent unit. Great picture, excellent sound and a very easy set up. Dolby vision is incredible. I love it and it is worth every penny.

Best player in the market ! Works as advertised no issues what’s so ever , Dolby vision and hdr look amazing, it’s automatic optimization makes any hdr tv meet it’s full potential, very pleased (Using a lg Cx at the moment )

Amazing 4k player. The upscaling on this model is really good. Don’t regret buying

One of the BEST 4K Blu Ray Players around, supports Dolby Vision & Atmos automatically, no need to turn feature on and off, great player the movie fanatics, also upscales DVD AND Blu ray discs along with Netflix

4k Blu Ray player's picture and sound are excellent.. The player is easy to set up. Has only 3 streaming apps, but those are the only ones that I use anyway. does Dolby Vision; fairly expensive, but worth it

The gold standard for a 4k player. Watch LOTR 4k on this and your mind will be blown.

I got this before I got a 4k receiver its analog outputs sound excellent and really helped me out when I was saving up. Its media playback is pretty good it is one of the few that allow you to stream surround audio tracks! It does not allow you to search and play which is kinda bad. It can natively play 50Hz content or resample if your TV does not support it like how my TCL does not support 50Hz at 4k (which the device scales flawlessly to 4k). It has good options. It supports HDR10, HDR10+ and Dolby vision it can work with any brand of TV. The audio only HDMI is great for Receivers that don't support 4k pass thru. The options to see the metadata from the disc and the what your TV receives is so nice. I use it all the time.

I still like physical discs, streaming just does not match the bandwidth available on physical discs so for the big blockbusters they still look much better on disc with a good TV. I was using an Xbox X for playing my 4k discs, but more and more 4k UHD titles are on triple-layer BD100 discs that were having layer transition issues with the Xbox. This has not had any hiccups yet, everything we've viewed so far has played straight through, and the video quality has been fantastic.

I've been a long time user of Oppo DVD/Blu ray players. However, I discovered that my Oppo 203 wouldn't send the increased color Ultra blu rays are capable of to my Sony 385ES projector when using the Oppo's tone mapping (SDR2020). I discovered that many projector owners were using this UB820 with great results, and were able to overcome the "bug" in the Oppo or Sony which made you choose between full color, but no tone mapping in the player (relying on the projector instead to less than ideal results), or superior tone mapping, but only rec709 color or 8bit color. The Panasonic has at least as good, if not superior up conversion of less than 4K resolution, and the sound quality is every bit as good as the Oppo. So, I sold the Oppo and am enjoying the superior picture quality the controls allow. The only thing I miss about the Oppo is the superior back lit remote control (motion activated) and build quality. Both of those are remedied by the Panasonic 9000, if you want to spend the extra money. Picture quality should be identical however.
