Original Coupon Deal

This is an amazing deal for a 4K 65" OLED TV. The HZ1000 is the 2020 model which they've been trying to clear out and is a fantastic television (I now own 2, a 55" for the bedroom and a 65" for the Lounge).

Price is $2999 + 5% off with XMAS Coupon making it $2849! This is the lowest price I've seen and I've been watching it for quite a long time. It appears there isn't much stock left based on the Noel Leeming website, so get a great deal if you're in the market for an OLED!

Only downsides: It is not VRR (Variable refresh rate) or 120Hz if you care about that for gaming, and doesn't have HDMI 2.1 if you care about that (which is mostly just used for VRR and 120Hz).

    Highly recommend Panasonic OLEDs for movies. If you can get past the stand design, this is the best deal lowest priced ever seen. Also, IMHO Panasonic UI is not the best compared to the competition but this can be fixed by Apple TV or Nvidia Shield which will make the UI way better (read powerful and intuitive) than any other TV's built in ones.

    How does it compare to the Sony x90j which is $2600?

      • SrsSarcasM on 06/12/2021 - 12:56

        You seem really knowledgeable on the subject, I've got an old 55" Sony LCD. In our lounge there's loads of sun (no direct sunlight but more Ambient light) and the screen is hard to see during the day.

        Old LEDs were generally considered to be worse than LCDs in terms of visibility during the day, although I know that varies from model to model.

        Does OLED combat the room brightness issue or is this still prevalent?

          • Jaxson on 06/12/2021 - 15:29

            @RainField: In a previous life I would have been all about performance in a dark room for movies et cetera, but I am hanging out for a quality traditional LED that suits lounge use during the day as well, and ideally with wider viewing angles and low reflections as well.

              • Kanwaldeep on 07/12/2021 - 17:55

                @RainField: The problem with the QN90A is that the panels here I'm pretty sure are mostly ADS(IPS). The sony x90j is cheaper than the Samsung and looks better because it has a VA panel.

                  • Kanwaldeep on 09/12/2021 - 13:44

                    @RainField: the qn90a with a 'VA' panel is 100% better but most panels in New Zealand are ADS(similar to IPS) they compared the qn90a with a VA panel against the sony x90j with a VA panel so technically it's almost a totally different product.

      • SrsSarcasM on 06/12/2021 - 13:33

        Also per https://www.trustedreviews.com/reviews/panasonic-hz1000-tx-6…

        Where the size doesn’t do the picture quality as many favours is the upscaling, at least for HD broadcast TV. It’s still a very good performance but it lacks sharpness. It makes up for it with colours that are bold in description, well-conveyed skin tones and what noise there is barely registers.

        Most content would be upscaled to 4k so this concerns me somewhat!

  • Kanwaldeep on 05/12/2021 - 14:33

    How bad is burn-in on this model?

      • ABCDEFG on 05/12/2021 - 19:14

        The first thing that comes to mind is hours of gaming with a static health-bar graphic in one corner. This would be a pretty common occurrence of that exact scenario, no?

          • ABCDEFG on 05/12/2021 - 20:12

            @RainField: Thanks for this reply, you really thoroughly answered my question.

        • Jaqqour on 06/12/2021 - 15:14

          Even top tier models get burn in, sometimes within a year. There are heaps of videos on youtube where people have swapped to a OLED (LG C1) and experienced burn in. They look nice sure, but if you are going to have static hud elements (or windows task bar etc) on that screen whenever you are using it then be cautious. The amount you pay for these TV's you want them to last a while, unless money isnt an issue XD

      • Kanwaldeep on 06/12/2021 - 13:49

        Does this have a letterbox burn-in?

    • brownie1 on 05/12/2021 - 15:41

      Burn in issue is basically the same for all OLEDs. You can't just use OLED tvs like regular tvs. You can't keep the screen constant, you have to always be conscious about it. It's the price you pay for that sweet sweet blacks you get.. Different make and models have different strategies to try and minimize it but all in all most panels have similar amounts of risk. I have walked into Noel Leeming, Jbhifi etc and at numerous times played the "RGB test" video on YouTube and showed the sales person that their demo tv is so fudged from burn in. I've done this to all makes. Look into a projector or non OLED tv if you don't want any burn in risk :)

    That's an amazing deal period. I've been keeping track of OLED prices for the 65" in for years. That's the sort of price you pay on TM second hand.

    It's pretty much a no regrets purchase with an Nvidia shield or Apple TV.

      • Banto on 05/12/2021 - 20:02

        I feel for you while looking at my 4.5k$ LED TV I bought about 3-4 years ago.

  • Makmak on 05/12/2021 - 14:51

    I have the 2019 model and it's still going strong. It did have an issue with burn in. Don't leave the TV running on a still screen whilst the sun is shining on it. However, this was fixed by doing a maintenance routine through the settings

    The TV itself is extremely heavy. Make sure you have something sufficient to hold it's weight

    The OS of the TV is terrible. Run a Shield or Google TV.

    Get sony flagship led x95j or get a80j oled from Sony 2021 model around similar prices if you can be patient and wait till boxing day and if you care about picture quality, motion hdmi 2.1 for gaming.

    • Jaxson on 05/12/2021 - 23:12

      I’m pretty much thinking along same lines.

      Not keen on needing to run an external box just to get a decent UI

    • Kanwaldeep on 06/12/2021 - 17:36

      How much do you reckon a80j or c1 75" will be around boxing day? I'm pretty new to this tv space and don't really know much about how their prices change.

      • Mustapha Jaffery on 06/12/2021 - 17:43

        At least 3500 for sony in 65 inches c1 comes in 77inches that should come to 5500 at least but you will benefit from a sony oled a80j if picture quality is your main concern.

  • BabySeaClown on 05/12/2021 - 18:40

    I have the FZ (2018) model and no issues at all with burn in. Just use it sensibly and there isn’t much risk.

    As previously stated, the UI on Panasonics is terrible, but easily alleviated with an ATV or shield (which I would be using on most flagship TVs anyway)

    OLED is worlds above anything else for most content. I’ve not once been disappointed with the brightness, or for that matter, any aspect of my TV. Slight judder on motion but this has apparently been greatly improved on the more recent models.

    I’m in a funny position where I’m almost wanting my TV to fail because the new additions are greatly appreciated - Dolby vision support being the big one, and HDMI 2.1 / VRR on the most recent models. But cannot justify spending to get what is actually inevitably going to be a relatively minor upgrade.

    I like to chime in on these posts because hey, i sell TVs for a living

    hz1000 and hz2000 are bloody goood TVs ; they're not particularly good as smart tv's, but honestly i'd rather run an apple TV or chromecast TV into them and mitigate the issue entirely

    This is really cheap too, this is staff buying demo stock cheap. The oled here is an LG made panel, the obvious benefits to oled being the great deep blacks and really vibrant colours (especially here)…

    What dont you get?

    No HDMI 2.1, so no 4k 120fps VRR for your xbox or ps5; you get 4k 60 as the max i/o (but what few games will be 120 anyway?), The stand is a little cheap for the price, it's solid but doesnt scream value… Panasonics software is painful and the remote is cheap shit..

    It's still night and day, especially considering the same money in samsung gets you an edgelit qled that's just on a different level to the TV entirely.

      • CheapThingsAreNice on 05/12/2021 - 19:40

        Do they offer the metal plated remote with the panas now?

    • fsmith on 05/12/2021 - 20:01

      nvidia shield i highly recomend when you need LOSSLESS audio support for your disk remux rips

      • Saint on 05/12/2021 - 20:38

        Can i stream files from my pc to nvidia shield? I.e VLC player etc etc

        • fsmith on 05/12/2021 - 21:54

          i use plex for that purpose.

          • Saint on 05/12/2021 - 22:00

            @fsmith: So will plex directly cast to Shield in lossless quality? (ethernet)
            Lets say if i play high bitrate hdr 10bit files.

            • fsmith on 06/12/2021 - 08:54

              @Saint: I do that all the time. So yes

    • Saint on 05/12/2021 - 22:01

      What is the difference between hz 1000 and 2000? also the jz versions?

  • cheeseballz on 05/12/2021 - 22:27

    Dang should have waited to get this over the 55 C1!

  • kiwical on 06/12/2021 - 22:33

    As much as I would love it I think my lounge would only realistically fit a 55.
    Do you think $2500 for the 55 HZ1000 is a good price or should that reduce more yet as well?
    Not offered on market but other retailers have that deal going.
