<\/p>\nThe 50-inch Panasonic TX-50MX800 is ideal for small spaces or as a second device in the bedroom.\u00a0Panasonic MX800 is a mid-range series equipped with\u00a0Edge LED\u00a0backlighting , Fire TV, HDR standards and a fast tuner.\u00a0The Panasonic MX800 series is available in 6 sizes.\u00a0In this review of the Panasonic TX-50MX800 4K HDR, we will try to identify its strengths and weaknesses in order to understand whether the MX800 is worth buying.<\/p>\n
The 50-inch version of the MX800 from Panasonic was chosen for review.\u00a0The series is also available in larger versions with diagonals from 43 to 85 inches.\u00a0The TV comes with two screw-on metal feet, a power cable and a remote control.<\/p>\n
The TX-50MX800 is slim and has a high-quality appearance.\u00a0The remote control is a bit big and looks a bit “over-engineered”.\u00a0On the other hand, it has all the necessary buttons for control.\u00a0If you need to hang the TV on the wall, you will need a VESA 200 x 200 mm wall mount.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In terms of features, these models predominantly use Amazon’s Fire TV OS as the central operating system.\u00a0Anyone already familiar with the Fire TV Stick will get the hang of it right away.\u00a0When you turn on the TV for the first time, the system will first want to pair with the remote control.<\/p>\n
The remote control can also be used as a microphone for voice control via Alexa.\u00a0Voice control works smoothly right away.\u00a0Whether it’s switching programs, adjusting the volume, or navigating streaming services.\u00a0It is unlikely that any other TV can be controlled so conveniently by voice.<\/p>\n
Owners of smart video doorbells can use the command: \u201cAlexa, show me the front door.\u201d\u00a0After such a command, a small picture-in-picture window will open and you can see who is behind the front door.\u00a0The Fire TV operating system also offers a good selection of apps and streaming services.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Amazon Prime Video, Neflix and Disney+ are already pre-installed.\u00a0They can be started by pressing a button on the remote control.\u00a0However, you will have to do without the SkyQ application.\u00a0The Panasonic 50MX800 TV responds instantly to commands.\u00a0This also applies to the TV tuner.<\/p>\n
Changing channels takes no more than 1\u20132 seconds.\u00a0If you use a suitable USB storage device, you can record the current TV program.\u00a0The TV tuner is designed for all types of reception (DVB-T2 HD, DVB-S2, DVB-C).\u00a0It should also be noted that not all Panasonic MX800 TVs are equipped with the Fire TV operating system.<\/p>\n
For example, TVs in this series supplied to Malaysia have the Google TV operating system based on Android.\u00a0Their markings will look like this: Panasonic TX-50MX800K.\u00a0That is, the letter \u201cK\u201d will be added at the end.<\/p>\n
For a TX-50MX800 TV in this price category, the sound quality is quite satisfactory.\u00a0This is a regular pair of speakers with a power of 10 watts per channel.\u00a0Expecting rich, cinematic sound from such a speaker system would seem like a utopia.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But the acoustics are set up well.\u00a0Even if you turn up the volume, the sound remains clear.\u00a0There are no noticeable noises.\u00a0In addition, the device has excellent dialogue intelligibility.\u00a0The TV also supports\u00a0Dolby Atmos\u00a0.\u00a0For surround sound lovers, it is usually recommended to connect a soundbar to your TV.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Panasonic TVs are generally known for their high picture quality.\u00a0The MX800 lives up to this reputation as a mid-range model.\u00a0However, its peak brightness does not exceed 450 candelas per square meter.\u00a0Of course, the TV will not be able to compete with expensive OLED and\u00a0Mini LED\u00a0models , but this is to be expected.<\/p>\n
In its price range, the Panasonic TX-50MX800 TV has image quality no worse than its competitors.\u00a0Panasonic TX-50MX800 supports all static and dynamic HDR formats such as HDR, HLG, HDR10+ Adaptive and\u00a0Dolby Vision\u00a0.\u00a0Despite limited peak brightness, images become more dynamic.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The contrast and brightness of colors increases noticeably.\u00a0However, the image falls a little short of the full HDR effect that is inherent in such content.\u00a0Most TVs have difficulty playing analogue TV channels in SD quality.\u00a0The Panasonic MX800 TV does an excellent job of scaling and displays everything beautifully and clearly.<\/p>\n
Therefore, you can do without an HD+ subscription and also watch YouTube videos in lower resolution.\u00a0The TV delivers the best picture quality with native 4K HDR content on BluRay discs.\u00a0In this case, it creates a crystal clear and perfectly clear image on the screen.<\/p>\n
Although the Panasonic 50MX800 TV has a slower 60Hz panel, the picture is impressive with its clarity and harmonious presentation of moving images.\u00a0This means you can enjoy a football match or a Formula 1 race without splutter.\u00a0The 50-inch TV features\u00a0a VA panel\u00a0with Edge LED backlighting.<\/p>\n
Matrices of this type have excellent intrinsic contrast.\u00a0The best image is achieved when viewed in a dark room.\u00a0On the other hand, without adjustable lighting zones, white objects in black areas of the image may produce blooming.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The disadvantages also include limited viewing angles.\u00a0Panasonic amazes with its natural color reproduction.\u00a0It reproduces colors accurately in both the SDR and HDR ranges.\u00a0This is noticeable both in landscapes and in faces.\u00a0Everything looks pretty realistic.\u00a0From the factory the image is already almost perfectly adjusted.\u00a0However, there are also manual settings for picky purists.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The MX800 TV offers a variety of connection options.\u00a0The patch panel contains 4 HDMI 2.0 connectors, 2 USB 2.0 ports, analog video input, 3.5 mm headphone jack, linear Internet connection, optical digital output, and antenna connectors.\u00a0Wireless connections include Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.<\/p>\n
The MX800 demonstrates a good image with realistic colors, high contrast and clarity. The TV also offers extensive Fire TV features, Alexa voice control, and a fast tuner.\u00a0Of the minuses, it is worth noting the limited viewing angles.\u00a0Overall, the 50MX800 has a very good price-to-quality ratio.<\/p>\n
