Panasonic may not be as well-known in the US for its TVs as it is in other parts of the globe, but that’s starting to change. The company has a solid lineup of high-end TVs that are available through Amazon, one of which is selling at a great price right now. Its 65-inch Z85 OLED TV with Amazon’s Fire TV software built-in is $997.99, a whopping 45 percent off its original $1,799.99 price when it debuted in late 2024. That’s a good deal by itself, one that’s made better with a bundle that includes the aforementioned TV plus Panasonic’s wireless neck speaker for just $2 more (totaling $999.99).

The Z85 features HDMI 2.1 ports on two of its four HDMI ports (through which it can display 4K resolution at up to 120Hz), plus Dolby Vision and HDR10 Plus support. It ships with other bells and whistles that most people are looking for in a premium television (especially gamers), like variable refresh rate (VRR), plus adaptive sync via AMD’s FreeSync Premium and Nvidia G-Sync. Not bad at all for under $1K.

I looked up this model on RTINGS, a resource that I use for technical breakdowns that put TVs advertised specs to the test. For the price, this TV fares pretty well, but not as well as most brands’ flagship models when it comes to brightness or handling glare.
