Producing stunning, OLED picture quality from a smaller screen, the Panasonic TX-42MZ800B delivers big TV performance in smaller spaces.
Small but mighty
The Panasonic TX-42MZ800B uses the smallest OLED TV screen size to deliver a premium viewing experience in smaller spaces. With its compact screen size, this Panasonic 42 inch TV is ideal for not just smaller rooms but also for use as a premium quality desktop monitor. Backing up the top quality screen is a full suite of HDR picture enhancements. These include Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and HLG – making sure you have every format covered. For expert delivery of your streaming services and ease of use, Android TV with Google Assistant is onboard. All this, wrapped by a beautiful, frameless design makes this TV a brilliant all-rounder.
See the difference that OLED makes
Rather than using standard, LED TV technology, Panasonic’s MZ800B range features superior OLED screen tech. With its individually illuminated cells, you get incredible contrast, with inky deep blacks and bright whites. Panasonic’s 4K Colour Engine PRO further enhances colour definition, while the Smooth Motion Drive PRO panel delivers super-smooth motion.
Multi-format HDR support for a stunning picture from all sources
Making the most of its impressive OLED screen, the TX-42MZ800B also offers multi-format HDR support, including Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HDR10 and HLG. Dolby Vision and HDR10+ both deliver scene-by-scene mastering for the truest, most accurate HDR picture technology. Each scene is optimised, meaning the maximum amount of detail is shown – even in the brightest or darkest moments.
Great for gaming
Continuing its all-round brilliance, the TX-42MZ800B is equally as impressive with gaming as it is with movies and TV. Select Game Mode and input lag is reduced, making your game play super-responsive. A further bonus for gamers is ready access to TWITCH via Google Play.
Android TV for smart TV – including voice control via Google Assistant
Android TV gives you effortless access to a vast range of entertainment streaming apps for near unlimited entertainment. Dive into favourites such as Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+ and YouTube or search out a few less well known apps from the Google Play store – the choice is near endless. What’s more, this TV also features the Google Assistant, meaning you only have to ask to locate content, change channel or adjust the volume.
Share with Chromecast
Sharing media from your smartphone or tablet is easy with Chromecast built-in. Simply pair your phone and cast what’s on your phone on to the big screen – wirelessly.
Dolby Atmos and built-in subwoofer
Compatible with Dolby Atmos sound, this Panasonic 42” TV creates a more enveloping sound. Thanks to its built-in subwoofer, you also get a deeper, more rounded sound than many of its rivals. For an easy upgrade in sound, simply link to a soundbar via wireless Bluetooth or the HDMI eARC interface.
Enjoy the sumptuous picture benefits that OLED brings, on a smaller screen, with the LG TX-42MZ800B.

Great picture, flaky operating
I've had this tv for about a couple of months. I can't fault the OLED picture quality - but there's a 2 things that make this tv REALLY irritating. First, the Freeview tv guide crashes regularly and the only way to get it back is to Restart the TV. THAT is very inconvenient.
And 2, it seems to refresh the picture at random intervals. It's like it zooms out and then resets. I've checked for software updates and can't find any, so beware!! Sadly you only find out about these things when you've had the thing for a while I.e. it's not things you notice in a tv showroom.

LOVE MY NEW TV
I bought this TV as my past one broke on me and I could not be any happier with my choice. The picture and sound are both amazing and I cannot wait to watch Wimbledon on it in the summer!

Panasonic needs to improve its TVs
Purchased this TV 5 months ago to replace a 12 year old Panasonic plasma TV. That TV gave excellent service hence I chose Panasonic again. Sadly, this was a huge mistake. Although the picture and sound quality are fine when it works, the TV hss been plagued by intermittant problems since purchase. It is slow to start, slow to change between sat. and other modes, picture and sound don't sink, it will stick, etc. etc. The situation is not helped by a wholly inadequate set of operating instructions. So fed up with it I only watch it when I have the patience to deal with its quirks and foibles. Panasonic need to iron out these problems BEFORE putting a product on the market. Avoid.

Superb
I'm so impressed with the picture, it's fantastic with some 4k Amazon prime etc. the user interface is easy to use and has all the usual apps (BBC, Netflix etc ). Can't really fault it, very happy! The stand is also much more convenient than the separate legs as I can set it on some hifi speakers.

Slow to respond
Pressing a key on the remote the TV slow to respond despite the remote being in front of the set
The program guide shows no information despite regularly powering off the set
The picture often jumps frames rather than smoothly going from a distant shot to close up or vice versa
This is an expensive TV which has great picture and sound quality but has lots of minor technical issues that make it a really poor choice

Good value tv
I recently purchased this television as an upgrade for an older tv.
For the price this model has a lot of features and is easy to use and setup, overall I am pleased with my purchase, I am slightly disappointed whilst watching sports though as there appears to be some “ghosting” when there is fast moving action.
I also keep getting an OLED panel warning when I turn the tv on, even though I turn the tv off in the way that’s suggested, I have looked through the settings and can’t seem to find a way to rectify this.
