Panasonic’s new flagship 4K UHD TVs will be out in the US next month!
Panasonic says the new 65-in and 85-in AX850 deliver the best picture performance of any of its TVs. Thanks to the direct LED array. This means that LEDs are spread behind the full area of the screen as opposed to just around the sides of the screen, as is the case with cheaper edge-lit screens.
Both the AX900 and the AX850 calibrate their output based on the brightness of the room in which they are being used. Light levels are detected and the picture is automatically adjusted to an optimal level for the ambient light conditions. Panasonic says the AX900 and AX850 use color management technologies that until now “have only been used to the same degree by professional studio monitors” and that the LCD panels themselves are highly transparent, allowing for better brightness and dynamic range.
The AX900 and AX850 are Panasonic’s first TVs to use the company’s quad-core Pro5 super-high speed processor, giving them the power to, for example, learn user preferences in order to display a list of content recommendations and to transfer live or recorded broadcasts to a smartphone or tablet.
Pricing yet to be confirmed.
