LG 3D Ultra High Definition Blu-Ray 4K Player with Remote Control, HDR Compatibility, Upconvert DVDs, Ethernet, HDMI, USB Port (Black) - NO WiFi

Absolutely the worst experience I have ever had with a device from a major manufacturer. So far this has failed to EVER PLAY A SINGLE DISC. Even in the initial menus, it begins with a series of random white flashes. Then during play (DVD, Bluray, and 4k) the white flashes continue, eventually becoming screen blackouts lasting a few seconds. I have tried different settings, different known good cables, nothing works. The unit has been sent back to LG two times. The first time they had it for two months. The second time they had it for six weeks. Both times it came back exhibiting the exact same behavior. I know its not a problem with my equipment because Ive tried a Samsung 4k player and it works fine. Also, Ive been reading the forums around the net specific to this unit and others have been having the same issues. Stay away from this LG.

Does not play 4K Blu-Ray disc as its not compatible with the LG "Deep Color" feature. This feature is meant to enhance the picture quality and play it at its optimal setting but when the TV turns the feature on, the disc stops playing. Thought this was strange as they are both LG units. My TV is an LG UHD 4K TV and I dont understand why theres an issue. I can turn the feature off, but when I start playing the disc again, the feature turns back on and Im stuck in a loop.

Movie turns off every 15 minutes. The power on the unit is on, but the TV screen switches to screen saver. Tried correcting in the menus and it still doesn’t work. The TV is not set to timeout due to inactivity and neither is the blu-ray player. I do not recommend this unit bc it’s extremely frustrating to turn the movie back on every 15 minutes. Tried hooking the unit up to multiple HDMI ports and other devices work fine. This player is nice - in 15 minute intervals. This unit is hooked up to an LG OLED 4K TV and it’s firmware was updated - another annoyance bc it has to be hard wired for updates.

I bought this in spite of having read a LOT of negative reviews here. I like the features of no bloatware "apps" on the player----all that stuff is already on my TV. Some reviewers whined about the remote, but I had no problem with that. HOWEVER,.......I wired it to a dedicated HDMI port on my week-old 4K-OLED TV, using an HDMI cable advertised as passing HDMI-2.1 qualification, playing a brand-new 4-K DVD. WELL, it performed exactly as many of the 1-star reviews predicted: it would freeze to a black screen randomly and recover after a few seconds, but then after about an hour of that nonsense, it locked up and powered itself off. Restarted the unit, fast-forwarded to just before the freeze and hit run, and it played perfectly right through the point where it froze, then 5 minutes later started the same nonsense. Having read of similar issues with the Amazon reviews, I packed it up and returned it after one full day of ownership.
