How does Panasonic stand out in a crowded TV market? When courting new owners of PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, apparently. The electronics giant unveiled its 2021 OLED TV, the JZ2000, and its centerpiece is an HCX Pro AI processor that not only improves image quality (more on that in a moment), but offers a huge boost to game performance .
The 4K suite promises a “much lower” latency that you will find on an OLED TV, says Panasonic, and this is due to the company’s customization, not just the panel. A new Extreme Game Mode setting will cut the delay, optimize the image and support the HDMI 2.1 variable refresh rate and high refresh rate options. It can also be ideal for a living room PC, thanks to HDMI Signal Power Link support that helps old computers and decoders to communicate with devices equipped with CEC.
