You might have a hard time stretching your memory to the Obama era, but back in 2013, Panasonic’s plasma TVs<\/a> were the critical darlings of the US market. They far outperformed their LED\/LCD counterparts at a time when OLED was little more than a pipe dream for most. Then suddenly, under enormous pressure from ever-cheaper LED panels, Panasonic halted all plasma TV production. By 2016, the company had left the US TV space entirely. Now, over 10 years after its plasma models reigned supreme in the US, Panasonic TVs are back, baby.<\/p>\n

Outside the US, Panasonic has remained a global leader in the OLED era. Rumors about a stateside return have been swirling for nearly as long as the brand has been away, but a global partnership with Amazon announced at CES 2024<\/a> kicked things into high gear. Today, Panasonic officially revealed the US launch of three premium TVs powered by Amazon’s Fire TV<\/a> smart interface: the flagship Z95A and \u201ccore\u201d Z85A OLED TVs, and the W95A flagship mini LED TV.<\/p>\n

All three models are available now in limited sizes, as Panasonic begins its slow walk back to competing against LG, Samsung, and Sony<\/a>. Here’s what you need to know.<\/p>\n
