Our take on the Panasonic DP-UB420

The DP-UB420 is Panasonic's mid-range Ultra HD Blu-ray player, built around the HCX processor that also powers its step-up models. It plays 4K discs with HDR10, HDR10+ and HLG, and its HDR Optimizer tone-maps bright HDR content for TVs that cannot handle it well. It also upscales DVDs and standard Blu-rays and handles Dolby Atmos and DTS:X bitstreams over HDMI. It lacks Dolby Vision, which the pricier UB820 adds, so it suits disc collectors with HDR10 or HDR10+ TVs rather than Dolby Vision owners.

Pros
  • HDR10+ and HLG support, rare at this level
  • HDR Optimizer improves tone mapping on mid-range TVs
  • Plays 3D Blu-rays and upscales DVDs and Blu-rays to 4K

  • Dual HDMI-style separation of audio and video via optical output
  • Wi-Fi plus Miracast and USB playback of MKV, FLAC and more
Cons
  • No Dolby Vision support

  • No Bluetooth, so no wireless headphones
  • Streaming apps are limited compared with a smart TV or stick
  • Build is light plastic at about 3.1 lb

Questions and answers

Does the DP-UB420 support Dolby Vision?
No. It handles HDR10, HDR10+ and HLG only. Dolby Vision owners should look at the DP-UB820 instead.
Is it worth it over the DP-UB820?
If your TV lacks Dolby Vision, the UB420 gives you the same HCX processing and HDR Optimizer for less. The UB820 adds Dolby Vision and analog outputs.
Can it output Dolby Atmos?
Yes, as a bitstream over HDMI to an Atmos-capable receiver. The player does not decode Atmos itself.
Does it upscale regular Blu-rays and DVDs?
Yes. It upscales 1080p Blu-rays and DVDs to 4K, and owners report clean results on DVDs.
Can I play files from a USB drive?
Yes. The USB-A port plays MKV, MPEG2 and AVCHD video, plus FLAC, WAV and MP3 audio and JPEG images.
Does it have Bluetooth for headphones?
No. There is no Bluetooth, so wireless headphones need a transmitter on the optical or HDMI output.
