However, Panasonic TVs are mostly no longer sold in U.S. markets. It is still possible to come across them occasionally, especially refurbished ones, but Panasonic TVs are not nearly as prominent in the U.S. TV industry as they once were.

The Panasonic TX-55DX650B model’s display has a resolution of 3840 by 2160 pixels. It features two full-range speakers with an output of 10 Watts each. The television features a range of smart TV features, including a voice assistant and voice guidance, the Panasonic Media Center app, and the Firefox web browser. This model is advertised to use an average of 115 Watts of power while on with an average annual energy consumption of 160 kWh.

Panasonic TVs are large, rectangular displays. They are relatively thin and commonly black in color. They have the Panasonic logo somewhere on the device, usually on the front center, just below the screen itself. Panasonic TVs are designed to sit on a TV stand or entertainment center or attach to a wall mount.
