Pros

This panasonic has 2 seperately assigned hdmi output ports, providing the audio and video signals to be seperate split as an option. Front panel has a usb 2. Back of unit has ausb 3. Great value for money from panasonic.

It's a lightweight player (mass wise) but these things sit on a shelf and do their job. Easy setup is straight forward. The interface is simple.

Panasonic *-ub420 is a great entry level 4k blu-ray dvd player. Auto upscaling function from blu ray to 4k, great setup and features. Reading blu- ray dvds is not snappy, but it's no worse than any other blu-ray player i've used.

Cons

User interface and remote control are terrible. If you pause a movie for more than 10 minutes it turns off and forgets your place. There is no setting for the auto turn off either, and it forgets you have captions turned on. For me too much a headache...  Read More

For only $220 or so it's a great choice because i believe you get a player that delivers a top-notch picture and audio when it ...  Read More


The gui looks outdated and it takes a bit to launch 4k discs but at this price point, i can't complain.

Packaging/appearance


The same dvd disk in the sony ubp-x700 displays the individual mp4's and plays them.


The box it came in was damaged until it was open.


My husband enjoyed the gift but i was disappointed how it came with no wrapping covering it to see what it was was, glad i saw ...  Read More

Competitiveness


Remote is medium sized and features direct track/chapter access numbers which is not the case with a competing brand player at ...  Read More
