The best Panasonic TVs of 2024: Rating screens, audio, features and value

Our top pick for the best Panasonic TV right now is this TX-55MX800B 55-inch model. It's not an OLED panel, but thanks to Panasonic's stellar picture technology and other bells and whistles, that's not the focus here. What we do have is one of the most comprehensive TV specs out there. Firstly, that LED panel is bright - and that follows through with the brand's own HDR Bright Panel Plus technology. That extra light translates into finer HDR colour separation and refinement. With HDR10+ and Dolby Vision (both at the higher end of the HDR standard), this TV is a treat for the senses when it comes to brightness, contrast and colour.

Plus, this is Fire TV, so you won't find a shortage of apps and other content - especially if you're an Amazon user. And of course, being a Fire TV, you get Alexa included for voice assistant functionality. Sound comes courtesy of Dolby Atmos for surround effects, and to top it all off it'll support a variable refresh rate and Game Mode for seamless, lag-free gaming. Just an awesome all-round package on offer here.

It might be said that any 43-inch TV is a bit of a budget-buy. And normally, that wouldn't be too far from the truth. However, this isn't just another small-ish TV - it's a Panasonic TX-43MX610B. And, naturally, that means it's packed with the company's best tech. 43 inches is a brilliant size choice if you're looking for something that is still comfortable to view from a distance, but not so big as it hogs the room.

Here we have all of the top-line support for HDR – including Dolby Vision – and loads of apps and streaming content. Again, there's surround sound from Dolby Atmos, and that panel is super-bright, making it a good choice for viewing in brighter rooms. You have your choice between Alexa and Google Assistant for voice control and low-latency mode for gamers. All that for a lot less than £400? We're amazed too.

Despite its reasonable price point, Panasonic's TX-65MX650B doesn't lack clever post-processing software, gorgeous detailed images and excellent build quality. This is yet another Panasonic television bursting with Dolby-optimised picture, along with some HDR goodness, the TX-65MX650B is simply excellent at its price - with natural images looking the best and brighter whites not being quite as crisp as a full-fledged QLED television as you'd expect.

Design-wise, the TX-65MX650B is slim and solid. The screen bezel is narrow, the stand is wide, yet thin and minimalistic - it's a design that brings the best out of the screen. Looks aside, there are one or two nitpicks for us with the TX-65MX650B- namely, its user interface and panel tech. The OS is AndroidTV which, in our opinion, is a little lacking compared to some other brands. An OLED panel would have been nice-to-have, but considering the budget price we're happy with LED. Yet, besides these minor points, Panasonic's TX-65MX650B is a television we wholeheartedly recommend for its size and the raft of features inside.

Panasonic does, of course, have other TVs in its range that come with Amazon Fire TV OS - but this one takes the crown here due to its size. Sharing most of the features of its smaller cousins, like Dolby Atmos, Dolby Vision and HDR, this 2023 model is a whopping 65 inches. We think this is the ideal size for a well-proportioned lounge and will quickly become the centrepiece of the home for all Amazon Prime subscribers.

What better screen to enjoy all those streaming and on-demand shows and movies on – like The Boys, Gen V, Fargo, or Reacher. And of course you still have access to Netflix, Disney+ and other leading subscription services. Game Mode ensures that this is a fully capable 64-inch TV that won't fail to impress.

Perhaps one of the best gaming televisions on the market right now, Panasonic's TX- 55MZ700B is spectacular in everything from design, to picture quality and, of course, response times. Along with Game Mode and of course, that gorgeous 4K OLED screen, this Panasonic television is mind-blowing for gamers. Starting with that 120hz OLED screen, you can enjoy unparalleled black levels, shadows and sheer contrast. You can bet this will make those night-time scenes in your favourite horror games just that much more intense and realistic.

As for the Panasonic 55MZ700B's design, it certainly doesn't disappoint – the screen is only millimetres thick at its thinnest point - giving the screen a refreshingly ultra-modern look. Dolby Atmos, low latency mode and VRR will keep your gaming sessions running smoothly and responsively. Gamers, cinephiles and television binge-watchers alike will be hard-pushed to find a better 4K OLED gaming television.

The star feature here is, naturally, that gorgeous OLED screen. While we normally recommend OLEDs on TVs with larger screens, we think that 48 inches is a brilliant size for most living rooms - and just because it's not a 65-incher doesn't mean it hasn't got some serious tech inside.

Panasonic has ensured that this TV is brimming with cutting-edge picture enhancement features and smart TV functionality. The enhanced colour range is there with several flavours of HDR, including Dolby Vision. Surround sound comes from Dolby Atmos for immersion, and the TV refresh rate here is a smooth 120Hz; that means that serious cinema fans, sports fans and gamers will be wowed as they watch or play. Game Mode Extreme tailors the TV to gaming for low latency and more, and you even get Google Assistant for voice control. All inside a 48-inch set. Amazing stuff.

Small TVs from major brands are few and far between these days, much to the lament of those who have very small bedrooms, kitchens (or even caravans) to put them in. Thankfully, Panasonic is still looking after you here - with this 24-inch model. It's super-affordable too, even with the Panasonic brand and build quality attached. What you won't find is 4K, OLED or anything else from the rest of the line-up - this is fine in our book; features like that are a little wasted on a screen the size of a small tabloid.

But let's look at what this can bring to your small space: 720p (half HD) resolution, HDR, Surround Sound, a headphone out socket, HDMI port and it's even wall-mountable. If you have movies on a USB stick, the port on the TV-24S50AEY will play back those files too. Best of all, it even as Smart functionality, meaning as long as you have an internet connection you can stream all your favourites and not be left with just what's on the built-in Freeview.

At the pinnacle of the size tree for the MX800B series is this 75-inch TX-75MX800B. So, much like its siblings, this has the same array of tech features. But let's examine how that 4K LED panel and its image enhancement capabilities translate onto 75 inches of screen real estate. Well, in short, it's stunning. Of course, any larger screen will always have an impact - but here the inclusion of Panasonic's multi-HDR support, HDR Bright Panel Plus technology for brighter images, and Dolby Atmos for sound make for a truly cinematic experience.

And the price? Well, it's the best and one of the most affordable 75-inch TVs out there. While we would (of course) love to have this in an OLED format, the 4K LED panel is excellent, and that brings this in at just over the £1k mark. Astonishing for the money.

However, the only downside we can see with 75-inch TVs is just that - the sheer size and scale of the device. If you're thinking about a TV this big, always factor in the comfortable viewing distance. It may hang on your wall, but can you sit and watch it comfortably? If you can, you're in for a jaw-dropping televisual treat.
