Editorial note
The Panasonic TX-42LZW984 is a television that stands out for its OLED technology, offering exceptional picture quality with vibrant colors and rich contrasts, thus ensuring an immersive viewing experience. Additionally, its compatibility with HDR formats such as Dolby Vision IQ and HDR10+ allows for detailed images in both dark and bright areas, enriching the content being watched. The my Home Screen 7.0 operating system also ensures intuitive navigation, making it easy to access features and multimedia content. However, this model has some notable drawbacks. The lack of Smart TV features limits access to streaming apps and the Internet, which may be a drawback for some users. Furthermore, its relatively high weight of 17.5 kg with stand may make installation and transport more difficult. Finally, its typical power consumption of 212 W could lead to higher energy costs, which is something to consider for those looking to minimize their energy impact. In summary, the Panasonic TX-42LZW984 is an excellent choice for visual quality and immersive experience enthusiasts, but limitations in smart connectivity and considerable weight may deter some buyers.
