The Xbox often has issues playing 100GB discs, so basically any newer 4K UHD discs.
The Panasonic will play Dolby Vision discs in Dolby Vision, xbox and ps5 wont.
The Panasonic will be whisper quiet compared to the Xbox/ps5 disc drive and fan.
Panasonic has an HDR Optimizer function for HDR10-only discs. It can help high peak brightness films look better on OLEDs with typical OLED peak brightness.
Sony X700 is also a good option but those tend to have a freezing issue
Even if you have a PS5 or Xbox remote, the interface for this isn't anywhere near as busy as those platforms.

Very minor, but if you have people in your household who are not the savviest with tech (older folks, kids, spouses), since this is a dedicated device, it's more easily navigable.
Even if you have a PS5 or Xbox remote, the interface for this isn't anywhere near as busy as those platforms.
The other option is the 420 version which is cheaper but avoids the downsides of the Sony (ended up giving it to a friend)

Some people say buying the 820 is "future-proofing" but I don't plan on upgrading the TV any time soon. I've got the much cheaper Panasonic 4K player, the $100 one (now $150), and it works perfectly for me (DP-UB154P-K).
