Overview
A living-room TV shelf is where this Panasonic player belongs, with a USB connection and a compact, light body. The specifications list 1080p Full HD output and Blu-ray media, while the model number reads like a DVD player.
Buy it only after confirming disc support with the seller, since the listing is thin on features. The limitation is the contradiction between the DVD-style model number and the Blu-ray media field, and the absence of any port list.
Who it's for
Shoppers with a simple TV setup who want a basic disc player may find it adequate once the format question is answered. Anyone who needs streaming apps, a port list or guaranteed Blu-ray playback should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Light and compact
- Full HD resolution listed
- Disc format claims conflict
- No port list
- No streaming features listed
- No power details
Performance notes
Picture quality depends on the output resolution and the disc type, and the listing names 1080p Full HD. Which discs actually play is unclear, because the media field and the name point in different directions.
