Panasonic TX-50EXR700 50 "

A TV from the Land of the Rising Sun stands with one foot on the steps with models of the medium diagonal, and the other tends to fall into the line of representatives of the large diagonal. The point is that the screen of the Panasonic TX-50EXR700 is based on a 50-inch matrix, which is a kind of transitional link between different sizes.

Features in appearance

The visible part of the TV screen is framed by the thinnest frames (on all sides except the bottom edge). Moreover, the body of the model rests on a stand, in which the distance between the legs can be changed in a wide range. From a practical point of view, this increases the convenience of choosing a position for installing the TV on flat horizontal surfaces. If you want to see the model on the wall, then for this mounting method you will need to get a VESA mount with a size of 400x200 mm.

HDR content

The MVA-panel of the TV reproduces content in resolutions up to 3840x2160 pixels, and also does an excellent job of displaying images in a high dynamic range. Moreover, it supports two HDR specifications at once: HDR10 formats (used in movies and Blu-Ray disc images) and HLG (broadcast television programs). By the way, terrestrial and cable broadcasting TV programs can be recorded on USB media, for which 3 corresponding ports are provided onboard the Panasonic TX-50EXR700.

smart shell

The main problem in interacting with the model may be the termination of support for FirefoxOS, on the basis of which the Panasonic TV software platform was built. The company is doing its best to keep the smart shell working under the new name My Home Screen 2.0, but the user should not count on the release of timely system updates and numerous compatible applications. But the "OS" works quickly, and its interface will be understandable even to people who are far from close "friendship" with modern technology.

Peculiarities

Functions for the soundtrack of the broadcast are thrown on the shoulders of two broadband 10-watt speakers — not the most bass and rather mediocre. Also, in the category of minuses of the model, many write down an outdated remote control with an inconvenient arrangement of some keys. However, these parameters do not belong to the category of critical ones, because the acoustic component can always be “pumped” by an external audio system, and the unchanging image of the remote control can be easily justified by maintaining the usual arrangement of controls.
