As there are already fine professional reviews detailing its superior specs and performance, and similar fine buyer reviews at this page, I'll discuss my own impressions, a couple usage tips, and some findings regarding the 4K UHD BluRay disk media which any buyer would use with this model.
UB9000 is my second 4K player. (The first, other, model, I'd bought days prior from a local big box, then returned as defective as it failed to play 50% of my BluRay disks with some erroneous message about unknown media type, all of which played flawlessly on my Oppo BluRay player.) Didn't plan to go as costly or high-end for my 4K UHD project as UB9000, but after reading its high praise reviews, noting its beefy build quality, and viewing online demos contrasting its superb output against other 4K models, I chose it from Amazon and so far, impressive build quality, stability, stunning output. Very happy with everything about it other than a separate software quality control issue with early 4K UHD BluRay disks from the film studios.
So here's my cautionary tale about 4K BluRay studio releases, which pertains regardless of 4K player model or brand. The maturity/reliability of 4K UHD media is "almost, almost" ready for prime time. User forums describe this issue: the high specs required to read the extreme data density of 4K UHD media, tend to make such disks especially vulnerable to microscopically tiny flaws, oils, dirt - which can result in pixilations, skips, loss of audio. As others describe, 4K UHD media ships inside plastic molded cases, some of which are NOT fully cleaned of factory oils before packing disks for sale, so buyers find the need to preview their 4K media and ritually clean the disk to eliminate invisible gums and tars that thwart a seamless playback, after which many users then store the cleaned disk into a fresh paper or archival envelope. Also, a very few such disks apparently cannot be fixed by mere cleaning.
I don't recall this problem over years of buying/renting hundreds of conventional BluRays. However my first 4K BluRays tested on two separate 4K BluRay player models in recent weeks confirm it's common enough. One forum poster even described giving up entirely on 4K BluRay purchases for this reason. I'm not giving up, personally; I love 4K media, and the best releases are stunning. But yeah, media does need to play properly without loss of audio/video.
Sample checks of a first few 4K UHD titles showed a few fail points. Your mileage WILL vary. These were just my own disk results.
• The Ten Commandments - stunning visuals. Pixilation and loss of audio in two scenes sampled. Used microfiber cloth cleanings, a method suggested in user forums. Result: full movie played with no errors, 100% fixed.
• Vertigo - stunning visuals. Same fail, but more stubborn to fix. After hand washing with Dawn dish detergent multiple times (another suggested method) I gradually reduced the fail points till they were no longer visible and the full movie played properly. 100% fixed.
• The Wizard of Oz - breathtaking visuals. Spent 90 minutes in multiple cleanings (Dawn dish soap/ eyeglass alcohol wipes/ spray bottle with isopropyl alcohol) which improved but never resolved the first failed section from 0:21 to 0:23 nor a later scene. Ultimately returned the disk as defective. Reordered the title. Replacement 4K set was completely flawless.
• The Lost Boys - gorgeous transfer, noticeably better than 4K playback from a subscribed streaming channel. Two short disruptions (at 0:46 and 0:47). Hand washing with Dawn dish detergent followed by cold rinse, gentle paper towel dry, completely fixed all errors.
• Yesterday / • Casablanca- stunning visuals. So far my sampled portions played without fails.
• Singin' in the Rain - gorgeous transfer with absolutely no flaws, from start to finish.
I love to invite friends over for movie nights, always insisting on showing seamless films without technical fails. Gradually gaining confidence with UB9000 as a 4K program source for guests, which was part of my plan, but it's too early to feel fully safe due to this somewhat common read fail with 4K UHD media. Unless I fully screen the movie first for no serious flaws.
Never needed to prescreen conventional BluRays before inviting guests for a film. In fact we've now had several guest nights showing standard BluRays on UB9000 - and it is a superb upconversion player. Zero flaws with conventional BluRays so far, and depending on the transfer quality, many are substantially improved by UB9000's beautiful upconversion, greatly better than viewing on my older Oppo BDP-93 conventional BluRay player.
* A TIP * Regarding Universal Studios films (BluRays and 4K BluRays)
You will likely need to disconnect your internet connection from your UB9000 or else follow this forum tip I found online. This simple tip rescued my Universal Studio disks, all of which were failing and getting stuck at the spinning "Universal" logo, without even launching the film or any menus.
[Quote:] "I wrote Panasonic about some Universal Monster blu-rays not loading unless I disabled wi-fi. I just got this response: 'Please try to solve this by turning off the BD Live feature: Home – Setup – player settings – network – network settings – BD-Live internet access – select PROHIBIT.' "
* A TIP * Add a dedicated streaming box to your 4K home theater
UB9000 streaming: minimal streaming channels, with vintage (2013) interface. No worry, add a small Roku or other streaming player to your home theater.
I love Panasonic. Loved my 2013 "Viera TC-L55WT50" TV before I upgraded to my 4K set. That old Viera running 2013 firmware, supporting a 2013 streaming interface and minimal streaming channels: is the very SAME streaming experience used on today's UB9000 running at the most recent 2023 software level. Ten years have passed with no visible updates to Viera streaming. Little wonder a couple buyers complained about inadequate streaming with only Netflix, Amazon, YouTube, a few other unheard of oddball channels, and that's it, apparently can't expand that list to add more. Having read those streaming complaints, I expected nothing - and was not disappointed. Evidently 4K player manufacturers are market-driven to add a rudimentary streaming feature as a checklist item, but clearly it doesn't have to be great, it just has to answer "Yes" to: "Does it offer streaming?"
How then to watch great streaming? Just as I did with my 2013 TV with same limitations: don't stream from the Viera device. Just add a small, dedicated streaming puck to your home theater. Or use the streaming built into your newer smart TV. Why bother to double-duty a fine 4K media player as a streamer, if it doesn't shine there? Treat yourself to a cheap amazing Roku Ultra from Amazon, or other great streaming player. A UB9000 plus Roku Ultra, make a great partnership in a 4K home theater setting, each its own "best of breed" solution.
Hope this helps you! Enjoy your shopping!
Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2022
My skepticism proved unwarranted as this device made a dramatic difference to specular effects, perceived contrast ratio and a host of other visual enhancements on my 120" screen. It feels as though I upgraded my projector! Much closer in PQ now to my OLED in the other room.
I'm using an ht5550 projector, x4800h AVR and a 7.2.4 HSU/Klipsch set up.
The clarity and tones you get from this player are remarkable.
Cons:
Slow Start up
Menus and web apps are pretty terrible on it.
If you are building a dedicated theater then this is a great option for you.
