5.0 out of 5 stars Great starter player for 4K

2026-02-11    -Nintendo Cat

The bottom line on this, IMHO, is that it is a good starter 4K disc player with very good upscaling of blu ray and DVD, especially blu ray. It is not a $1000 4K disc player. It is not a $500 disc player.Regarding compatibility with a 4K TV, I can only speak about my experience with my large QLED samsung TV. I had trouble with dark scenes looking good through this player, even after using the Disney blu ray calibration disc. Otherwise, Ready Player One 4k looks great. Guardians of the Galaxy blu ray is superb. Star Wars Episode V DVD upscales very, very nicely. But every dark scene in my setup just looks so muted.This player seemed to do fine with sending Atmos and 5.1 surround sound tracks to my sound system, so no complaints from my ears, but perhaps there is more out there.I suspect this player with some TVs will simply be spectacular. With others, maybe not so great. At a price of about $100 (I paid a little over this), it can get you going.I have owned mine for roughly one year, and I have concluded I need to try another player. The mid range Panasonic just went on sale, so I will try that one. I will have to update my review in a month or so with comparison notes.---------------UpdateI stand by my statement that this is an excellent starting 4K disc player, and still think this will perform awesome with some TVs.I will now compare to the Panasonic UB820. The Panasonic wins on HDR features. Easily adjusts my picture brightness, noticeably so, and that made me super happy (see above comments).The LG wins on audio setup with my equipment, using a Samsung atmos soundbar and no receiver. The less expensive LG for whatever reason could pass atmos and picture flawlessly through the ARC and back. With the Panasonic, I went through many iterations of setup before compromising on optical audio between the QLED TV and soundbar & having confirmed atmos on a direct HDMI from the disc player to the soundbar. I had to have atmos from the discs, and having the picture and sound together is just so enjoyable. 5.1 Dolby digital from other sources (Roku, antenna, gaming) was acceptable to me.Netflix is available on both disc players and both have better Netflix picture and audio than through my Roku Premiere (all equally connected by ethernet), but my Roku remains my go-to streamer.

Fantástico!

Recebí hoje meu player e estou maravilhado pela nitidez das imagens, HDR exepcional sem mencionar o Dolby Atmos.. O conectei no meu receiver com cabo HDMI 2.1 e assisto meus filmes e documentários em 4K nativo na minha TV OLED C1 de 77 polegadas que é um espetáculo a parte e, me sinto como se estivesse numa sala de cinema!PERFEITO!

4.0 out of 5 stars It does what it’s supposed to do

2026-02-04    -S. Barr

First off, the picture is fantastic. I use upgraded HDMI cables through a sound bar to my LG brand TV and have watched DVDs, BluRay and 4K discs and can’t complain about the picture quality. The player also has an audio only HDMI out so if I decide to connect through my Onkyo stereo (rather than use the sound bar) I have that option. It is nice to be able to view my old DVDs without having to connect a separate player as I did with my old machine.The player does not have any sort of screen saver, so if you walk out of the room with a disc on pause, the picture will still be there no matter how long you’re gone from the room. This could be a problem with some TVs. It also has no memory - I had to go through the menu every time I returned to the disc after turning the machine off (watching a multipart series). It did recover after a power glitch, however.Nothing special about the remote, it is not very ‘intuitive’, doesn’t have a great feel, and it needs to be aimed directly at the player. The TV controls at the bottom do work with my LG TV with no additional setup which is convenient.In the setup, I turned on the English subtitles. I’m not sure what this was supposed to accomplish as I have had to turn them on for every disc I have watched. Oh, and the background screen is amazingly bright white, which will light up the room and get your attention if nothing else if you have a larger TV, especially in a darkened room.Overall, it’s does what it’s supposed to do, it plays discs, and does a good job of it. Just make sure your discs are clean as the player is very unforgiving of the tiniest smudge and will hang/skip when it finds one on the disc, and if you pop the disc out to clean it - you get to find you place by going through the setup and menu… again.

Excellent Blu-ray for the money

Simple to install and simple to use. Bought this blu-ray to play blu-rays and DVD’s and it does exactly that with perfection. The image is incredible and it does a superb job at improving the picture quality of my DVDs. I’m very satisfied with my purchase. Highly recommend.

I already have one of these on my main tv. I chose this one for a secondary tv. It’s not the newest 4k player and it doesn’t offer the HDR10+ to match my tv but it is a great player. It has a very basic but clean interface. It gets the job done.

Ótimo aparelho, funcionamento muito bom, mas, o defeito é não possuir visualmente marcação das músicas, tempo e outros itens.

2026-02-06    -Andy from FL

Very happy with this 4K player AFTER I got the right hdmi cable. I had tried multiple cables even ones that were supposed to be rated 4K compliant. Figured I'd give it one more try and bought this cable https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CLUXVB6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1Worked perfectly.Lesson? If you buy a 4K player, be forewarned that your current hdmi cables might not work.The symptom I kept running into was that it would play dvds and blu rays perfectly but if I inserted a 4K dvd my TV would turn on HDR and the screen would go black. Hope this helps

5.0 out of 5 stars Great 4k hdr player

2026-02-12    -Juan aguilera

I got this LG to go with my Vizio p series. The picture quality is wonderful for hdr10 and Dolby vision it runs quiet. 1080p looks good, DVD films not so much. I do have one grip is that when I fast forward a DVD disc for some reason the entire player freezes I have to unplug it in order for it to work again still hunting for solutions, since I don't watch many DVDs nowadays it's not that big of a problem but if you have a big collection you might want to hold off on this particular player
