Maybe technically true. But Panasonic launched the DP-UB450 in the US only in the last 12 months, even though the model has been available elsewhere BUT MALAYSIA. So mixed signals but at the very least Panasonic knows there's a market for a mid-entry 4K player.

You can buy them on Amazon US for RM760 and send it to Malaysia with free shipping (plus prepaid import tax). This is the one with the HDR10+, HLG and Dolby Vision.

Yes, UHD/4K BD player from Panasonic.
