Do you want to drift across the landscape in Horizon Zero Dawn, experience the adventure in A Plague Tale: Requiem, or enjoy Mexico in Forza Horizon? Currently, only OLED displays can provide the best picture. So why limit yourself to just one more gaming monitor tech. Panasonic OLED TV in its smallest version can be safely placed on the table and enjoy an uncompromising gaming experience.
Small TVs are usually used as monitors. In the case of OLED variants, it cannot be otherwise. OLED gaming monitors can be counted on the fingers of one hand and are not available worldwide. So if you’re looking for cutting edge display technology, you don’t have much of a choice. Fortunately, manufacturers produce models of reasonable sizes without sacrificing performance. Among them is Panasonic with OLED TV TX-42LZ980E.
Panasonic’s 42-inch OLED TV is the smallest member of the LZ980E series. If you want to place this model in a living room, for example, you will find that it is modestly small. However, it fits nicely on a table next to a polished gaming set. You will love the beautiful 4K resolution and especially the OLED panel.
The magic of OLED technology lies in the ability to turn off the backlight for individual pixels. So the black will be really black, not grey. Thus, the contrast ratio represents the absolute pinnacle among displays. OLED has other benefits for gamers as well. The response times of these panels are extremely fast in most cases. We can talk about tenths of milliseconds, i.e. an order of magnitude lower response compared to classic IPS monitors. Counter-Strike players will love this model due to its low response.
Panasonic’s OLED TVs also boast HDR10+, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos support. These certifications are not common for monitors, and HDR usage tends to be much better with TVs, for example. Ideal when you have completed the entire series in one day.
However, not all OLED TVs are suitable for gaming. Many of them still do not count on such use and do not offer a reduced input response. Fortunately, this is not the case with Panasonic’s OLED TVs. You can connect your game console through any HDMI port and enjoy automatically reduced latency.
Another important aspect is the refresh rate. The base 60 Hz for games is not ideal, since through the HDMI 2.1 interface you can use 120 Hz with a fairly powerful machine. The TV is not without support for variable refresh rates and AMD FreeSync Premium. This way, every frame created by your computer or console will be used in playback. At the same time, there will be no image tearing when FPS drops in more demanding game scenes. Even Cyberpunk 2077 will run smoothly.
There is also a special Game Control Board game menu, where you can adjust important TV settings in a few seconds. You will control the refresh rate, HDR settings, or picture mode. You can fully enjoy every game thanks to a pair of 15W speakers. At the same time, they are completely absent from a number of gaming monitors.
Another bonus when buying a Panasonic OLED TV for PC is the fact that it is a smart TV. If you want to take a break from gaming and watch Netflix, you will find a special application in the system. So you can turn off your gaming machine, save a few kr on electricity, and enjoy a movie without the noise of your computer cooling down.
Of course, the TV can also be placed on a VESA mount if you don’t have much desk space. Of course, a large mouse pad and a mechanical keyboard are preferable. After all, the diagonal is 42 inches, i.e. 106 cm, definitely not the smallest. The stand is still relatively compact.
With four HDMI ports, it’s no problem to connect other devices, ideally PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X consoles. Switching individual inputs is also quick thanks to the classic remote control at your disposal. Again, something that is not typical for gaming monitors.
Panasonic’s OLED TV really does offer a ton of benefits when used in place of a computer monitor. An excellent OLED panel, full HDR, powerful speakers, game mode and console compatibility make this a versatile model for every gamer.
