Panasonic UN-W700P-S Multimedia System with Skype

The Panasonic UN-W700P-S is a purpose-built multimedia system designed around effortless communication and light media consumption. Its 7-inch LCD touch panel serves as the primary interface, letting users tap through Skype video calls, Facebook and Twitter widgets, and DLNA media playback without needing a separate computer or tablet. The built-in 2.0-megapixel camera features an adjustable tilt mechanism, making it easy to frame yourself properly during calls regardless of where the unit is placed.

Portability is a key strength of the UN-W700. The built-in rechargeable battery and Wi-Fi connectivity free it from any fixed location, so you can move it from the kitchen counter to a bedside table as needed. Bluetooth support provides additional wireless flexibility for compatible accessories. As a DLNA-enabled device, it can pull photos, music, and video from other devices on your network and display them on its touchscreen. While the device was forward-thinking at launch, its reliance on Skype and a relatively low-resolution camera place it firmly in its era.
