I've read a few reviews, and some suggest the PQ is very slight better on the Panasonic - but at almost twice the price, is it really worth the extra?
Years ago, I moved away from playing actual discs and ripped everything to my NAS. In the last year, I've started moving away from the NAS to Amazon Video - but having just bought a 4k TV, the film's I want to buy are only HD on there and even if they were 4k people are telling me the picture will be better from a player. Plus it will give me something to unwrap at Christmas!
Most of my AV stuff is fairly high end which means I tend towards the Panasonic - if it did DV that would clinch it. But I'm in two minds - the Samsung is barely over £200 now which makes it very tempting - especially since I could buy all the 4k films I want over Christmas and still have change compared to the Panasonic.
