Overview
Not a streaming box or an Ultra HD deck, the Panasonic is a slim Full HD Blu-ray and DVD player that upconverts discs and plays files from an external drive over USB. One HDMI cable links it to the TV.
Its slim body fits narrow racks, and USB playback of lossless audio formats adds use beyond discs. HDMI-CEC lets the TV remote handle basic control. Owners of an Ultra HD TV will not get Ultra HD Blu-ray playback here.
Who it's for
Families with Blu-ray and DVD collections and a tight TV cabinet will appreciate the small footprint. Film fans chasing Ultra HD discs need a different player.
Pros and cons
- Compact body for narrow shelves
- Upconverts DVDs to Full HD
- Plays files from external hard drives
- Lossless FLAC, ALAC and DSD audio
- No Ultra HD Blu-ray playback
- HDMI cable not included
- Single HDMI output only
Performance notes
Picture quality from DVDs depends on the upconversion stage scaling standard discs to Full HD before the TV does. Audio passes as Dolby Digital over HDMI, so surround needs a receiver or soundbar that decodes it. USB playback depends on files using the listed formats.
