There are two big changes for Panasonic TVs this year.
The first is that the company has switched from its own My Home Screen smart TV interface toAmazonFire TV.
Sound is also a standout Z95A feature.
The Z95A has two HDMI 2.1 ports with 4K 144Hz support.

But the magnificentSamsung S95Dis available for alotless, so you oughta want its particular mix of sound and visuals.

Sound quality is given special attention on the Z95A, which features ‘360 Soundscape Pro tuned by Technics.’
Motion handling is also impressive on Panasonics top OLED TV.
The Z95A’s picture is bright enough for viewing in well-lit rooms and it has an anti-reflection screen.
The Z95A has an impressive array of input and control ports.
On the control side, it has an Ethernet port and IR blaster output.
Panasonics remote control is disappointing given the Z95As otherwise premium build quality (and price!).

The Fire TV Ambient Experience is a recent addition, and its one of the platforms most appealing features.
If anything, there may be too many options provided for tweaking the TVs picture and sound.
A nice gaming feature on the Z95A is its Game Control Board pop-up menu.
The Z95A’s circular swiveling stand.
The Z95As input lag as measured with a Leo Bodnar 4K Input Lag meter was 12.6ms.
Thats a perfectly good result, although the best TVs for gaming typically yield a result under 10ms.
Ultimately, the Z95A ranks the same for value as its flagship OLED competitors.
Panasonic has switched to the Amazon Fire TV smart interface for its 2024 TVs.
