Panasonic DMR-PWT655EB PVR/Blu-ray Player Combi Review

What is the Panasonic DMR-PWT655?

This multi-functional device combines Blu-ray and DVD playback, Freeview HD recording and Smart TV features in one box. The PWT655EB is Freeview Play branded, meaning you get all the catch-up content from the stables of ITV, Channel 4 and the BBC, as well as a time-travelling, backwards scrolling guide to, hopefully, make finding all the previously aired programming easier to find, There’s a one terabyte (1TB) hard drive built-in, which according to Panasonic allows for the recording of 684 (nice & precise) hours of high definition recording and it’s also capable of playing networked and locally stored content in Ultra HD, as well as scaling content to 4K resolutions. Note, the DMR-PWT655EB is not an Ultra HD Blu-ray player, for that you will need to look at Panasonic’sUB8900. With current (June 2016) online prices of around £229/$343, this combo device looks like representing very good value, let’s see how it fares in action.
