PanasonicDP-UB450EB-K 4K Ultra HDBLU-RAY with HDR10 - & Dolby Vision

Quick delivery.Have not yet used the player extensively but tested a 4K film and the sound and image quality seems impeccable (further tests on more films required).Physical and software set up were quite easy and fast.Batteries come included for the remote, but the set does not include any HDMI cable, which is a shame considering this is a premium product sold at a premium price.Ideal device to be used with a good home theatre system. Just make sure your TV has enough HDMI ports (including eARC) to take full advantage of everything.

While I was researching for the most capable (and affordable) Blu-Ray player that would enhance the performance of my LaserTV Projector and ALR screen, the Panasonic DP-UB20EB was the obvious choice. Its 4K high-precision Chroma Processor produces outstanding colours, bringing natural images to the screen. The images are vibrant with exceptional detail, creating a visually immersive experience! I was pleasantly surprised at the rich quality produced by the automatic upscaling of Blu-Ray (HD) content. Even some basic DVD discs resembled high-definition.The player made my projector’s Dolby Atmos sound richer and more captivating than ever before! I was particularly excited about the bass as it is now much clearer and well-defined. Furthermore, the ‘Dialog Enhancer’ feature makes it easier to hear speech without needing to raise the volume too high. Though the player’s Remote Control works well, I replaced it with the Panasonic DP-UB9000 Remote Control (bought separately) as I preferred its layout and it has a backlight for use in a dark room.Admittedly, the Panasonic DP-UB20EB is a considered purchase, if you are on a budget. But after assessing its overall amazing picture and sound quality, upscaling capabilities, HDR processing, and its smooth, uninterrupted playback, I can only conclude that this award-winning product delivers as promised. This beast offers sensational performance and I can confidently recommend it.

The Panasonic player model ub150 works well. I've only tried using it with a very basic tv but the picture is way better than streaming to that tv via a mobile... I assume with a better tv the picture (& sound) would be better.No direct connection to a sound bar/system is possible as there is only 1 hdmi port. Connection would have to be via the tv. I didn't realise this from the product description.A bigger issue is the size of the buttons on the remote control:, I can only access most of the buttons by using a finger nail, this player would be unworkable by someone with arthritis.Photo with a mobile phone to show scale.But I can watch my DVDs again, so reasonably pleased with the purchase, but I had to buy a further dvd/blueray player I would pick one with (at least) 2 hdmi ports..

A brilliant 4K Blu-ray Player

Believe me when I say this - the Panasonic DP-UB150 is THE very best affordable 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray player on the market. This was the first player I bought for 4K viewing, and can confirm that is by far the best. Playback is both solid and reliable, so you can purchase with confidence. The player is nice and compact too. Remote is also of good size and quality, and always responsive.Playability is phenomenal. The picture & sound quality are second to none. Really quite impressive.I've tried and tested the model which come along after this one, and it wasn't a patch on the DP-UB150.Oh, and Panasonic 4K players beat Sony's efforts, hands down (my Sony 4K player barely lasted a month before it packed up working!).The Panasonic DP-UB150 is recommended 100% 👌Picture Quality ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️Sound ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️Overall rating ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

This 4K Player has great picture quality on both Blu- ray and DVD, 4K Blu-ray is great as well sound is also very good, now for the negative the interface for the [Limited] apps is very old looking Panasonic has not changed this in years if you have a smart 4K TV the apps will be up to date most times, The 820 has Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video [Not Sure about Iplayer] The Netflix & Prime Video apps are not up to date for example Netflix is you subscribe does HD on the app but not 4K HDR the player supports 4K for 4K Discs and HDR if your TV has HDR but not the app reason I know this is because we subscribe to Netflix 4K package at the moment it works fine through the Virgin Media TV360 box Netflix app with HDR, but not on the Panasonic 820 Netflix app some might say it's not a problem but HDR makes a lot of difference to the picture quality on 4K more depth so you would think Panasonic would have updated the apps?? Something tell's me Panasonic won't. So all in all the player is very good so I can recommend this player if you just use it as a player and not the apps.

Great player
