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.

Catch-up TV Apps may vary by region. The function and availability of apps is not covered by the manufacturer’s or Richer Sounds’ guarantee.

All round great product.
My old Panasonic was over 15 years old so an upgrade was on the cards. Because I had not had one problem with the old one I thought I would stay with the same brand. What a difference , the picture and sound quality is light years better and compared to much more expensive T.V.s I found that there was no difference. I can only highly recommend this T.V. . Don't believe all the hype you get with other more expensive manufacturers.

Good all rounder
A very good TV however, i did have a little trouble connecting play station to hdmi (just touch connection and would go off) working now so see how it goes. Apart from that I was impressed with the service I received from the Chester branch.

Panasonic TV with Sound Bar
Purchased instead of an LG and can’t fault the picture. Clean and crisp with excellent blacks and great sharpness in motion. Sound Bar exceeds my expectations with atmosphere and bass. This is coming from someone who has a Yamaha 1030 with B&W speakers!

Looks good but set up not easy
Looks very good so far. Pictures A1. Soundbar also looks OK but manuals dire - which seems to be the case for Panasonic (and others). Richer Sounds, as ever, excellent - very helpful, honest and well priced . Who could ask for more?

Great picture, great features
Bought this to replace an old Panasonic Plasma for my parents and the difference in picture quality is amazing as expected. The unit has far more features than they will ever need as they basically watch all their viewing through Sky Q. Easy to set up with the basic options, didn't explore the Android section as little point for them.

Technophobe no more !
My new 55 OLED was simpicity personified , it could have just as easily been set up by my 7 year old grandson!
The set up wizard did the majority of the work and all I had to do was press the ok button, and on one or two occasions navigate a key board through the remote to log into google and the internet.
Fitting the stand was straightforward , It really was almost a plug and play. Both The picture quality & Sound outstanding.

Fantastic picture and sound
Only had it for a week to replace aging Panasonic plasma TV which was 15 years old. Great picture from OLED screen and sound is superb due to internal sub woofer. Instructions not great as only basic set up described with no description of all the settings which effect both picture and sound. Another point is that it doesn't tell you the 2 standby options 1. Long press powers TV down 2. Short press goes into standby - recommended as TV goes into maintenance mode to remove noise from OLED panel essential to ensure long life of screen - led trashed during this process. Other than that a great buy and comes with 5 year warranty.
