I own this player and for those who misunderstand it's purpose and benefits, let me explain:
1. It's primary benefit is its video processing features. Plus support for Dolby Vision, HDR10+
2. Second benefit: dual HDMI benefits when you have either a projector; or if you have an AV preamp/processor/AVR that does not support 4K HDR/DolbyVision. Send one HDMI to the processor/AVR, the other to the TV or projector
3. The multichannel analogue outputs benefited me for over a year whilst I didn't have an AV preamp/processor that could handle Dolby TrueHD / DTS HD Master Audio. I fed my outdated processor from the analogue outputs of this player
4. For superior sound quality for music, I found using the digital output of the Pana player to a high quality DAC (Matrix X-Sabre) produces awesome sound quality.
5. Integrated Netflix, Youtube etc is great with a dedicated remote button. Also good for smartphone screen share, casting from PC and DLNA.
How it sucks:
1. Plasticky. Light. And easily scratched.
2. Remote is a pain. With no backlight and cramped button placement, it's easy to press the wrong button. And when you just want to pause, or choose an option but land in Netflix whilst watching a BluRay... Very frustrating. Especially coz there's a delay switching between these modes
3. Analogue out quality is a bit harsh sounding, hence why I'm in the middle of upgrading my AV preamp.
4. No Spotify or Deezer. Very limited apps
