I use it to play DVDs and it does that well. The user menu system for the player offers many features. The buttons on the remote were small for my hands so I switched to an Onn universal remote.

When I purchased I assumed players these days would be mostly priced under 80.00 because of streaming and most don’t use physical media, unfortunately I should have educated my self a bit more before purchase.
To be fair the player does what it should.
I have had no issues playing any Blu-ray or DVDs and the picture quality is very good on the q series tv.
When plugging in with the Beni cord the tv automatically knows what it is and connects with no issues.
The sound and picture are noticeably enhanced from when I’m watching TV or streaming something.
As for size it is very small and compact so it fits in the area well.
The device connects to WiFi easily and updates with no issues.
You can stream apps like Netflix on the device as well but I have not had a need to try any streaming through this device as it is available already on the Samsung tv as well as the Apple TV and PlayStation.
The drawbacks that I have found using this device -
The Home Screen.
I have not purchased a player since Blu-ray started because I always used the PlayStation for that however the dvd players I have owned over the years all had much better home screens. This feels extremely basic and almost feels like it’s a you get what you pay for vibe and goes with the inexpensive 75 price tag.
My biggest and only major complaint is how loud this device is! If you are attempting to watch a disk with the tv volume down you will be unhappy. This device starts up loud and the spinning of the disk is loud at all times during use, so much so that I would have returned this had I not foolishly discarded the box so quickly. This is the one thing I could not find any reviews on prior to purchasing and I wish someone had mentioned this in a review.
It is the only reason for the low review of this item. I did not expect upscaling or any high end functionality with this device with the price I was looking to spend, I simply wanted something to play DVD and Blu-ray Discs
With this player set in a bedroom for me the sound of the disc playing is relevant especially if my wife is trying to sleep and I have the sound very low.
If the sound of the player while in use does not bother you and the home screen doesn’t mean anything then you should be content with this player at its price point.

Panasonic Blu ray player is a good brand name. . Compact, easy to use. The buttons on the remote are a little cramp. good for small hands. Takes a little while to load disc. but once it loads , the picture is excellent. I'm happy with the purchase.
Thanks Best Buy for selling me this Open Box item. I appreciate the savings.

Great Little BluRay Player

I picked this up over the Black Friday deals. Nice small size and its a Panasonic which has always made great BluRay players in the past. This one doesn't disappoint. Was easy to set up to my WiFi and the Netflix button on the remote is perfect for the wife. Plays BluRay disks relatively quickly. My only downside is that it only has HDMI output. Not a deal breaker, but I wanted to use it with an old TV to add Netflix but without the audio/video outs, I couldn't use it on that TV. Other than that, nice little unit.

Even though I didn't need the extra functions, it was an easy setup. It connected easily to my home network, should I have need of those services. The only reason I didn't give it an excellent score is because the firmware update took almost two hours.

For the price point this is a good no frills wi-fi blu-ray player. On the cheaper side of wi-fi capable sets. Very simple but as long as you don't need anything more than movies and Netflix it works great! We needed a second player for the bedroom/travel and this is perfect for that.

My first wireless Blu-ray

I wanted a wireless Blu-ray player so that I could stream YouTube and Netflix. It was easy to install. I have had a few issues streaming Netflix from time to time & I've gotten a tad frustrated with the remote buttons, but overall it's been ok for the lower price I paid. Plenty of features (some I haven't used yet). My Blu-ray movies play great in it. I had to replace an old, broken non wireless Blu-ray player I had, so this one suits my needs fine as a replacement.

Love this bluray player! I’ve been meaning to upgrade for a while given more physical copies are moving to bluray. There’s a lot of options when using it but easy to use for simply playing movies like I got it for. Definitely a great purchase

A Must Own for Versatile

I purchased this machine as a portable blu-ray player to take with me when I travel and/or visit stay with family/friends, and this small machine delivers in a big way.
The single HDMI hook up allows you to take less wires to use the machine, while maintaining clear video/audio reception. It's size allows you to throw it into something as small as a book bag and still have room for everything else you need to take with you. And the quality is more than I expected based on the size. Not To mention is has wi-fi capability, allowing you access to all of your major movie streaming services.
Overall, this is a very good, functional and portable machine which should be used for that purpose or for a child's room.

Good quality price-wise. The remote is too small and busy. Somehow I am unable to update the firmware via Wi-Fi. I don’t have a chance to play Blu-ray Disc but I did not find much difference in comparison to my old dvd Sony player that I purchased in 2001.
The main reason to buy was price and my old dvd player was burned down by a storm lightning surge. Overall it is a good player.

Panasonic Blu-ray Disc Player DMP-BDT100

I bought this Blu-ray disc player to go with my 55" Panasonic plasma TV. As the TV did active 3D, I wanted a BD that also would play 3D BDs. As is typical of BD players, this one will play a wide range of discs including BD-R, BD-R DL, DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RAM, DVD-ROM, DVD-RW, BD-RE, BD-RE DL, CD, CD-R, and CD-RW. It also has various built-in audio decoders: DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD decoder, Dolby Digital Plus, and Dolby TrueHD. This BD player will also up-convert a standard DVD to 1080p.
Connections include Ethernet (to connect to the internet to update its firmware), as well as HDMI output, LAN, USB, audio line-out, component video output, composite video output, digital audio output (optical).
It loads BDs in about 30 seconds, which is fairly quick. I have played many of the disc types in this player without any problems. My Panasonic Plasma TV displays the output from this BD player as only a plasma TV can. The player and the TV are a perfect match.
I would highly recommend this player to anyone thinking about upgrading to Blu-ray disc technology. This BD player is fairly large measuring 16.9 in wide, 8.1 in deep, 2.3 in high and weighting a very light 4 1/2 lbs.

I like it, it plays well, no problem with burned discs or DVDs, haven’t tried an CD, and I like using a USB drive to watch videos.
The price was OK, it was the cheapest in the store but twice or more than I used to pay fora DVD player.
It is compact and fairly quiet although it does seem cheaply built, this however is not a dealbreaker and I will buy another for the other rooms in the house. The only thing that I don’t like is the remote, it has a Netflix button that I don’t use and is terrible location that I keep accidentally pressing.
