I Measured The World's First Publicised MLA OLED TV! (Panasonic MZ2000)

This is hands down the best HDTV testing and reporting channel on YT. However, I have to make sure I'm wide awake before I watch. Your voice is so soothing, it relaxes me to the point of dozing off. And I mean this in the best possible way! Cheers and keep up the great work!

This anti glare coating or what this is on the mzw2000 Looks not good..i want black,not Gray.
Hope this is Not the finally Produkt..

I'm not sure if it's still true but the Pioneer Plasma team left to Panasonic. I wonder if they are still there working on stuff like this.

I learn so much from this channel... THANKS!!

You let your intrusive thoughts win in the first 5 seconds of the video ☻

Blade Runner on MZ2000 looked washed out with raised blacks in comparision with lz2000...

OMG what the hell with black levels... I see it's the same as with qd-oleds and that is why I still prefer traditional oleds and I hope they won't dissaper from tv market in next few years.

Just when I was getting into OLED, Panasonic pulled out of the Australian market.

It seems that the black level of the screen when hit by ambient light is far worse than the QD OLED of last year (that was one of the two minor issues on qd oled panels) that seems fixed on the 2nd generation of QD OLED panels this year.

For me, the best decision for Panasonic was the adoption of a QD OLED panel 2nd generation in conjunction with the new Pentonic SOC. I suspect Sony is delaying their TV presentation to reach that goal. If so, a big advantage for Sony also for the next years (having more background experience compared to Panasonic). At the end, only the new brighter MLA panel is the change proposed by Panasonic compared to last year while the QD OLED panel was already last year clearly better than WRGB OLED and with more margin of improvement in the next years.

Weren't the TV pictures swapped by error ? The left picture (must be OLED 2022) looks brighter in every scenario.

I wish to see more english spoken videos about one of (if not) the best oled brand outhere. Like, how is gaming on a Panasonic tv compared to LG? How is the last gen model compared to the next gen model (JZ2k vs LZ2k) for example. How many resolutions do Panasonic tv’s support (480p?) all these obscure details are very hard to find

MZ2000 vs Sony’s second gen QD OLED model cannot come quick enough

Love more innovation on oled.

Hello, a test of the Panasonic LZ1000 is planned?

(there is no test of this 2022 model equipped with a heatsink and at a very interesting price)

Very interesting! Soinds like I'll get a new TV this year!

I love Panasonic but no 77" MLA panel and claiming to focus on gamers but 2xHDMI2.1 in 2023 is disappointing.

Snake oil.. Sony qd oled 2nd Gen all the way

Panasonic back at it

Will OLED ever be able to produce 1000 nits full screen? For those of us who cannot afford a $30k reference monitor but still want to create HDR content that is color accurate, we usually have to choose color accuracy or luminance, but not both. Color is more important, so we can use something like an LG C-series OLED, which is a great option. But when mastering for HDR, the best we can do would be proper reference monitor, or possibly a miniLED for $6k or more, which will still sacrifice some color accuracy.

How do apply surfshark to my xbox?

So the new panasonic with mla looks like a led lcd tv due to the raised blacks making it a useless oled tv. Oled is about that beautiful contrast and blacks. If the g3 from lg with mla also has the saim raised blacks I cam go back to my original mindset of the qd oled version 2 being the only and best option this year after sansung has fixed their raised blacks for 2023. But lg has not. Maby lg also took off the poloriz off too or the lma is reflecting light the worng way when introduced from outside the room.

The biggest thing I would miss in my c9 is the lg magic wii style remote and the current picture settings I have remembered by heart and the clear picture setting. Samsung's remote had no input button and it's just a laggy experience.

Now an oled can be even more uncomfortable to the eyes! Closer to miniLed. Awesome! 😂

There's NO noticable difference in these OLEDS now, I'm glad I bought the Pana 55" Jz1000 it's perfect for movies and games, I won't upgrade now until Panasonic Finally make 8K QD or MLA OLEDs now, I'll let around 7-8 years pass and let Panasonic make afew 8K tvs then go for a massive flagship, As of now I'm Set for a long time

i cant believe turning off tonemapping on the tv is a new feature, how isnt this standard or an update to software for older tvs aswell, its mind boggling slow and incompetent TV software develoopment seems, i just cant believe it

I can only hope the new MLA LG tech gives the QD-OLED a run for its money because that will mean better competition and hopefully better prices for the consumer. Now I'll keep my fingers crossed that Panasonic comes back to North America.

lol dam think im gonna sell my lz1500 now then

Peak brightness of LG G3 is 600+ more than Panasonic MZ 2000. But how do the picture quality look side-by-side? LG's TV most likely needs calibration, has less hdr options and maybe not as good sound as Panasonic. I would really like to see a comparison between the two of them for sound, movies and gaming.

I realize I'm complaining about a "first-world problem", but I keep wishing that Panasonic would start selling their TVs in the United States again. Value Electronics was able to offer a small number of Panasonic TVs for sale from their store in New York last year, so maybe I'll get lucky someday and purchase one of those rare models. They're almost as scarce as unicorns on this side of the planet.

Every time I think I'm going to buy a new Tv and get ready for Prices to drop, the next years TV tech is so much better.

Is possible to switch off the “luminance control logo”? With my GZ1000 I can only set it to “min” and it produces an annoying dimming effect, to me is totally unusable for gaming. On LG oleds you can switch that control off, I hope finally Panasonic let us do the same, or even better would be if they find a way to dim only the zone where the static logo is displayed and not all the screen.

At last white that looks like white if it can fix oled biggest flaws I’m almost sold , but I’m still hoping for that lottery win for the micro led with a ref calibration equivalent

Now, use this technology to build me a 28" UHD computer monitor. 5K would be even better.

You need to compare the new MLA oled to the best of 2022 aka QD-oled (S95B n a95k) please! I believe this is what we have been waiting for!!

800nits are enough.

Am I just imagining it or was the MZ very washed out in terms of black on the shots of Blade Runner? Surely Panasonic haven't messed up HDR black levels in this model?
Edited: having now watched the whole video: I'm extremely disappointed! The raised blacks in ambient light are a HUGE step back in my opinion. Given how contrast works I'll put money on the raised blacks completely negating the increased brightness in any viewing conditions except a completely blacked out room (or at least very dark). According to SMPTE contrast is the 1st primary and most important picture quality metric. For the vast majority of users OLED has just taken a huge step backwards in picture quality. Given just how terrible the side to side is for the Blade Runner clip in terms of contrast and black levels (even allowing for the fact that the room is probably a little brighter than an average living room) I would never purchase a TV with one of these panels. It would be worse than going back to my old Panasonic plasma TV. This is a huge disappointment.

looked basically the same to me

As an American I'm punching the air because we don't get Panasonic TVs

Aren't we reaching a point where you should stop focussing solely on white luminance and start paying attention to color luminance? Everyone says how much better the colors are on Q-OLED... and yet none of the channels I've watched actually MEASURE for it. It's a complete fail (to me at least) if a TV can hit 100% of some color space my eyes can't detect half of and can generate 8 gazillion nits white light, and yet can only produce red at 89 nits...

Now I think I should get the G3 over the A95L

Doesn't MLA destroy perfect blacks at times though?

So will the new 45gr95qe 240hz MLA OLED will be brighter than LG C2 42? cause on my LG C2 42 in HDR, some scenes with bright highlights like the sun, it looks washed out and not punchy bright. Do you guys think new MLA OLED will fix that?

It's too bad I can't get a Panasonic here in the states.

Looks good for gaming got my eyes on Philips Evnia 42" 42M2N8900.

LG OLED most better than Panasonic

How would you compare Panasonic's models to the A95L?

Did Panasonic New model MZ2000e address and fix the problem with the LZ2000e model...the bass speaker rattles and the plastic casing vibrates when volume at normal anytime a movie or moderate bass is played...❓This is not an isolated case...there are others on the website avforums documenting the exact problem.

Does anybody know if the MZ980 or any of the 42" MZ series support black frame insertion (BFI) at 120hz?
