Peerless Adaptive Backlight Dimming
This screen pulls off deep blacks in dark scenes and rich whites in bright scenes, adding glorious lustre. This is down to the Adaptive Backlight Dimming, which analyses incoming pictures and continually adjusts light output to produce the optimum picture quality. Panasonic’s fluid system makes the panel all-the-more eye-popping.

Fabulous Full HD
The DS500 displays a picture that is crisp, clear and breathtakingly lifelike. Displayed in a 1080p, Full HD picture resolution, it creates an immersive and enjoyable TV experience which can be appreciated by all the family.

App-Filled my Home Screen
Panasonic’s Smart platform will be the base of your home’s media. Stream from the likes of Netflix and Amazon Video (subscription required, sold separately), play large-data games through cloud services, listen to your favourite music and even keep track of the weather with apps like AccuWeather. With such a seamless jump from TV watching to all-purpose Smart functions, this state-of-the-art set will reinvent your living room.

Slick Swipe & Share
With built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, you can easily beam Smart phone and tablet content onto your TV screen. Swipe & Share lets you 'throw' content from your devices to the big screen at the swipe of a finger. And connecting your smart devices to your TV is now easier than ever, too, thanks to the latest Panasonic TV Remote app.

Perfect partners
With TVs getting slimmer and built-in speakers getting smaller, choosing the right sound system is more important than ever. Soundbars enhance your TV’s sound quality and add that extra audio punch to all your movies, games and TV programmes. More affordable and easier to set up than a full size speaker system, they don’t compromise on quality either.

Don't forget...
If you want to connect your TV to a blu-ray player, games console, soundbar or soundbase then you'll need a HDMI cable.
