If you’re keen to get the best possible picture on your UHD TV, but equally keen to get it without the price tag of a flagship 4K Blu-ray player then the Panasonic DMPUB300EB is ideal. Panasonic, understanding the need for an entry-level Blu-ray player have added this cracking piece of kit to its UHD range.

The Panasonic DMPUB300EB 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray Player with Dolby Digital Plus is a great Blu-ray player that offers brilliant audio and video performance (via HDMI), despite its incredible entry-level price. At just £129, the Panasonic UB300 will undoubtedly promote awareness of 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray beyond the AV aficionado crowd, creating greater mass market appeal – and making 4K TV viewing affordable even for your 2nd TV!

If you’re looking for a cheap UHD Blu-ray player then the Panasonic DMPUB300 obviously fits the bill with audio and video performance that’s comparable to Panasonic’s other 4K Blu-ray players. You’ll also find a great range of features, including hi-res audio support and 4K HDR streaming services. There is one HDMI output, no built-in Wi-Fi and no optical digital output and no built-in Wi-Fi but if you don’t need those, then this Blu-ray player is an incredible product at an incredible price.

The Panasonic DMPUB300EB delivers pictures with stunning colour and detail and it’s all down to the 4K High-Precision Chroma Processor. Technologies from the Panasonic Hollywood Laboratory, their base for Blu-ray Disc Research & Development, are applied to Panasonic’s unique “4K High-Precision Chroma Processor.” 4K image colour signals are ‘translated’ into 4K by a multi-tap Chroma process, giving natural textures, true-to-life colours, warmth and depth.

In essence, the Panasonic UB300 will deliver awe-inspiring cinema-quality entertainment to your 4K TV – at a fraction of the cost of what I’d expect to pay; it’s little wonder that this budget Blu-ray player was awarded Best Buy from the European Imaging & Sound Association.
