Review: The Panasonic DP-UB150 is THE very best 4K 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 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Review: Best ever picture quality. - In the past I have always gone for middle of the range blu ray/ 4k players players thinking they were a good mix of picture quality and price. My aging Arcam CD player had just given up the ghost so after some research I wanted to see if I combine the two players. I prized my wallet open with a lot of sweating and hit the buy now button. From the outset I was not disappointed, unpacking it you could see and feel the quality, after an easy setup I placed a 4k lord of the rings in, the colours popped out of the screen hues were rendered perfectly, with even the fastest scenes tracking without issue and smoothly. When it came to dark scenes it pulled out so much information while still keeping the scenes inky black. Only one slight negative if you can call it that, is the menus are slightly slower than anticipated. Putting a CD in I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and depth of the sound stage. A worthy buy and I am happy I took the plunge. Needs decent equipment to bring out its fullest potential.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone found a way to change the display to full widescreen or am I stuck with 16:9**
A: 16:9 IS full widescreen.  

Although aspect ratios are more complicated that this, for your purposes the basic ratios are:

1:33:1 - 4:3
1:78:1 - modern widescreen tv
1:85:1 - traditional 16:9 widescreen 
2:35:1 - Cinemascope

If a film was shot in 1:85:1 it will cover the entirety of your screen (although if you look closely you’ll see very slight horizontal black bars at the top and bottom)

If a film was shot in 2:35:1 since it’s a wider ratio than the tv you’ll see much larger horizontal black bars than with 1:85:1 (and this is correct;  you should not attempt to change this to fit the screen as it will distort and lose information on the sides)

I’m guessing what you mean by your question is can you fit a 2:35:1 film to fit the entirety of the screen.  It may be possible by should never be done for the reasons stated in my last paragraph.

**Q: Can i connect an amazon fire stick to the usb connection on the Panasonic Blu-ray dp-ub820?**
A: Hello,

Thank you for your question and interest in our product.

The USB socket on the DP-UB820 would only be for data storage/playback, therefore an Amazon Fire TV stick which does not actually feature a USB connection but a HDMI connection, would be better connected to a television.

Sincerely,
Your Panasonic Customer Care Team

**Q: can it play 4k ultra hd movies as well as normal blu rays and dvds?**
A: Yes it will play 4k blu Ray's and normal blu ray & dvds

**Q: Is it normal for the player to have very faint clicking sound every so often when watching a movie? it's in a study room, so close to it when playing.**
A: It’s not unusual with some of the cheaper Panasonic players. I have a five year old bdt460, it’s done that from new and still works perfectly. It’s just transport noise from the player accessing the disc. My t180 multi region does it too, but my UB9000 doesn’t. You won’t find a more reliable blu ray player brand though.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant player, awful remote
*by A***K on 18 December 2025*

Within an hour of getting this player up and running I had launched Netflix, by accident, about 50 times. The netflix button is directly above the up button on the direction control. If you have finger nails longer than 0.5mm, it is very difficult not to push it when pressing up. I was ready to box it up and send it right back but decided to see if any after market remotes were available. There were, so I decided to spend an extra tenner to get a usable remote. It arrived next day and is just the job. It has a backlight too. The player itself is fantastic. I was using an Xbox One X as my 4k player but compatibility issues were popping up with certain discs so decided to splurge on a dedicated player. The interface is a bit archaic but it's virtually silent and a loads up discs much quicker. The picture quality from it on my LG C2 OLED is stunning. It blows the Xbox into the weeds. I would give it 5 stars but for the stupid remote.
