    All the cheaper, Panasonic televisions aren't Panasonic. They are by name only they are made of inferior electronics and not Japanese electronics like they used to be.

      Not particularly helpful information. No one would expect top notch components with that price. Also who cares since Japan hadn't been making TV panels for years?

      • Frisky Grandma on 19/11/2025 - 09:20

        You’re not wrong …. But you’re also a little wrong!

        I was a tv salesperson back when Panasonic started doing Google tv for the first time on shit models like jx600 (the kinda tv where the audio would sound better if it was coming from a car stereo driving past than from the tv itself) and we sold MANY based on the Panasonic brand name. There’s a lot of loyalty in the older folks of New Zealand… and for good reason! Old Panasonic’s are tanks and lasted forever. I have an ex display one that is in the 6k+ hours and it’s only now, after moving across the country and taking some impacts starting to show minor backlight issues

      That reminds me of Toshiba brand as I was looking for dishwasher recently.

      If you didn't dig through the spec, you wouldn't know that Toshiba branded dishwasher is actually Midea with Toshiba brand.

      • pdevonporf on 19/11/2025 - 09:38

        Exactly, a lot of these companies have gone, broke or sold their branding or been swallowed up by corporations like Philips and AEG, which went bankrupt years ago Panasonic similar they've had financial problems for years and have sold their branding rights to a lot of their products.

        • spam on 19/11/2025 - 09:51

          Talking about this also reminds me the good IBM & Lenovo.

          My first laptop was IBM Lenovo which still has IBM logo on it as I believe was their first year of merger.

    • Makmak on 19/11/2025 - 10:09

      IDK about that.

      I have a Panasonic 65" OLED for 2019. Still going strong, and the best TV I've owned in regards to clarity and performance.

      It'll be a sad day when that bites the dust.

      • richms on 19/11/2025 - 10:17

        Higher end panasonics are different. It's all the low end stuff that is just branded from one of the big chinese manufacturers and has the OS skinned and remote codes set up to respond to panasonic remotes. Could very well have come from the same factory at at another time is churning out veons and similar.

        • pdevonporf on 19/11/2025 - 10:31

          Yes, that's right. Those Panasonic have high-end Japanese components and are made in a Panasonic factory. There's nothing wrong with buying low quality televisions because of price but the retailer is using a high-end name to sell low end televisions. I have a veon and after six years, it's jiggered I have a Sony 12 years old made in Japan still going strong.The Sony cost $2000 55 inch and the veon 47 inch cost $300 you get what you pay for.

            @pdevonporf: Panasonic OLEDs use panels from LG (Korean) and are manufactured by TCL in Europe or Asia (certainly not Japan)

            I don't know where those mythical "made in Japan" models would be coming from

            • pdevonporf on 19/11/2025 - 16:23

              @Zyo: Panasonic no longer produces its own TVs in-house since 2021, never said the televisions were made in Japan. I was agreeing with Makmak who purchased his OLED in 2019 they use high-end Japanese components and also Panasonic R&D, quality control on their OLED televisions, which everybody knows that Panasonic does not make OLED panels since it gave up producing plasma screens it sourced its OLED panels from LG but it looks as though TCL is going to buy the whole television business from Panasonic in the future instead of Panasonic outsourcing the manufacturing of most of its mid- and low-end TV models to TCL. The Panasonic that was made in Turkey was not a Panasonic It was just branded Panasonic .The television division of Panasonic is virtually broke it loses millions of dollars every year.

              • Zyo on 19/11/2025 - 23:09

                @pdevonporf: A mid range OLED nowadays will probably be miles better than a plasma from 5 years ago.

                You do you but for me the panel makes the most difference, a couple of "high-end" Japanese components are negligible in overall picture quality, otherwise you would've known them by name.

    It's funny that this popped up today cos last night I was looking at TV's under 1k to replace my parents old samsung, which is starting to get backlight issues after 10yrs, and this 55" Panasonic was the one I tentatively settled on. The $1k mark seems to be a bit of a sweetspot cos it's where you start to get mini-led's with local-dimming that I expect offers a decent picture quality bump over even slightly cheaper displays. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. There are very similar offerings around the same price from TCL and Hisense, probably using the same panel, but the Panasonic seems to review better than them. If there's any better option very close to the 1k mark I'm all ears though.

      I'm looking at this to replace my Dads old Panasonic TV: https://www.harveynorman.co.nz/tv-and-audio/televisions/lg-5…

      • CheapSkate69 on 19/11/2025 - 16:20

        I did look at the NanoCells early on, but I eventually decided to bump up to the 1K range, as the TVs I mentioned seem to be a cut above and are still within my budget. My folks don't really care tbh, but I do spend some time watching their TV so it'll make me happier lol

      This looks decent at $948 with a bonus $250 gift card. Making it effectively $698 for a MiniLED
      Hisense ULED MiniLED 55 Inch U6QNZ PRO 4K QLED 144Hz Smart TV

      • CheapSkate69 on 19/11/2025 - 20:44

        Oh wow that's an excellent spot, thank you. I did look at that TV but didn't notice the gift card at all. Will look at this TV seriously now but the offer runs out on friday so will have to act fast.

    I bought the 55' and it's great, especially for the price. It's probably not OLED level quality but it's a great TV and for $7-800 less than a 42' OLED it works for me. There is talk that the processing components are the same as the Panasonic OLED model so up scaling etc. is pretty good.

  • Dingardo on 23/11/2025 - 12:25

    If one were to pick between the Panasonic TV-65W95BGZ or the Hisense 65U6QNZ PRO which would be the choice? Both seem similar specced, but it has been a good 15+ years since I last looked at a TV.
    Mind you the Hisense $250 gift card has ended (would have been a no brainer then), but the price has dropped a further $100.

    • GreenGarnish on 24/11/2025 - 12:07

      I was choosing between those two and decided to go with the Panasonic one. I have no experience with Hisense but when I was doing my research, the Hisense was generally not recommended over the Panasonic.
      I am very happy with the Panasonic one (upgraded from Sony KD-65X9000F), I think it's a no brainer for the price.

  • mpc on 25/11/2025 - 13:40

    It's now $899. If you paid more jump on their chat service and they'll refund the difference in a NL gift card.
