We know that not everyone can afford to buy a big, beautiful HDTV this season. Thankfully, Panasonic knows this, too. However, just because you aren't getting a new TV, it doesn't mean that you can't get (and give) some new, shiny electronics this season.
Panasonic just kicked off its "You Pay What We Pay" promotion. That means that for a limited time, consumers can pay the same prices that employees typically enjoy. The company is actually discounting prices on everything including big TVs, Blu-ray players, and much more. We actually found the Panasonic DMP-BDT110 Blu-ray 3D player and the DMP-BDT210 Blu-ray 3D player on sale for just $107.49 and $119.99, respectively. Sweet prices all around!
The DMP-BDT110 is Panasonic's entry-level Blu-ray 3D player. However, that doesn't mean that it's skimpy on the features -- not even close, in fact. This player does support playback of Blu-ray 3D discs. It also allows viewers to control the level of 3D effects, via the 2D-to-3D conversion feature and 3D Effect Controller. Just remember that you will need a 3D TV and 3D glasses to access the 3D functions. However, even if you don't have those yet, this still makes for a great 2D Blu-ray player. It can do Blu-rays, upconvert DVDs, and even play CDs. If you're looking for additional entertainment (and who isn't?), the DMP-BDT110 also has VIERA Connect. This provides on-screen access to Netflix, Hulu Plus, Amazon Instant Video, Facebook, and much more. The BDT110's network connection is wired only (standard RJ45 network jack), though you can add WiFi capability via an optional adapter or a standard wireless bridge.
We got to play around with this player back in the spring and said, "it's one of the most affordable out there right now, especially considering what it's packing." Read our full Panasonic DMP-BDT110 Blu-ray 3D Player Review if you need more information about this unit. That said, the MSRP on this model is $149.99, so it's definitely a nice discount. That even includes free shipping! Just know that to see the final price, you'll need to add the DMP-BDT110 into your shopping cart.
For a slight step up, the DMP-BDT210 is also on sale. This player has everything that the DMP-BDT110 has, but also adds in touch-sensitive controls and the option to control the player via Panasonic's free downloadable app. More importantly, the BDT210 adds integrated wireless networking (802.11b/g/n WiFi) which is alone worth the price bump. The DMP-BDT210 has an MSRP of $200, so this is certainly a sale price that you're going to want to check out:
To see both of the above discounts, you will need to add the respective Blu-ray 3D player (or both!) into the shopping cart. Once you do that, you'll see that these discounts also include free shipping. If you want to take advantage of Panasonic's promotion, you'd better do it soon! These prices are only good through Monday, November 28, 2011.
