Community Reviews
The Panasonic Z8 OLED stands out as a 77 inch set with strong picture quality, excellent processing, and unusually good built in sound, with some calling the audio good enough to skip a soundbar. It also gets praise for gaming at 144Hz and for handling HDR10 plus and Dolby Vision, while the larger size is a clear upgrade over smaller TVs. The main cautions are that it shines best in dimmer rooms and that the brand's future ownership has raised warranty and long term support questions. A compelling option if you want a big OLED with serious audio.
Movie watchers in moderately dim rooms who want strong built-in audio, because the picture is praised and the speakers can be good enough to skip a soundbar.
Viewers who prefer a large 77-inch screen, because the size jump is immediately noticeable and the bigger panel feels worth it.
Console and PC gamers who want 144Hz support, because it handles gaming well and the refresh rate meets expectations.
Home theater buyers who want HDR10+ and Dolby Vision in one OLED, because it supports both formats and can preserve detail in mixed HDR libraries.
Buyers comparing against the strongest competing OLEDs for pure picture value, because it is repeatedly weighed against cheaper or better-scoring alternatives.
Shoppers with very bright living rooms, because the panel is described as best in rooms that are not very bright.
People who want a lighter TV to move or mount alone, because the set is reported to be extremely heavy.

The sound though really seals it. No need for an additional soundbar and that setup . Built in stuff works so well!
Does it make sense to buy them if they're not gonna be making them anymore? What happens if the TV breaks down?
BTW the licensing to Skyworth will not cause manufacturing to cease. It's just a change in ownership.
Here is my short list of TV's. Leaning toward the TCL for size and Samsung for price.
Mixed Usage
TCL QM9K - 8.4 - $1999
Samsung S90F OLED 8.7 $1620
LG C6H OLED 8.8 $2300 with soundbar and other perks.
Hisense U8QG 8.4 $1649
FWIW S90F outscored the Z8 Mixed Usage 8.7 vs 8.3
I've watched quite a few comparison videos on YouTube now as well. I can not personally tell the difference between most TV's the reviewers are comparing side by side OLED vs QM9K.
Concerned about OLED burn-in. In the end the size 85 inch is bigger than 77" and the pricing may sway.
I wish this came in a 65-inch version though. 77 is probably too big the room. But they seem to have discontinued the z95b from last year as that can't be found anywhere

I'd say in most ways the Samsung is better. But it really comes down to whether you have a feeling one way or the other about matte vs glossy. I refuse to go Samsung because I have one of their OLED monitors and it's the last time I ever go matte on an OLED. I love glossy. So if you feel strongly about it one way or the other, it makes the choice easy. Samsung if you like matte, this is you prefer glossy.

With that being said if you have edu/partner account the s90f is the best deal if it's still available.
The TV is amazing. The picture processing is great and it's brighter than the B4 I came from since my living room is brighter than my previous house. FireTV isn't bad but I turn off network access and use a Shield Pro. I haven't had issues with it and it's really heavy. 98lbs I think. The sound is amazing for a TV but I'd gather most people buying this have a home theater solution. I have no complaints about this TV and the price point for me made this a no brainer. I don't like QD-OLEDs overbright saturation of certain colors when I watch movies. So the Panny is wonderful for watching things in more reference or neutral tones and it excels in color and image processing on that front. I have a cheaper Panny blu-ray player without the image processing the 450 I think. I opted for that since it plays both HDR+ and Dolby. The 420 does one and the 820 is out of my price point. Both do image processing BUT this TV and my setup is now all cohesive. A main draw besides all the advantages I listed above would be that this TV is one of the ONLY OLEDs that can display HDR10+ and Dolby Vision. Now I can watch everything in the best HDR in my moderately dim room and not miss details. I think it was posted somewhere else that this stands above the C4, I'd say it's worth it.
Its in my cart and waiting. The 10% AI video and coupons don't work anymore. Seems to be very limited stock so I may be SOL.
