Panasonic follows on the CES 2020 launch of the flagship HZ2000 OLED TV with the announcement of three OLED and three 4K LCD TV series for 2020, all offering Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos and HDR10+ support.
The OLED TVs-- the HZ2000, HZ1500 and HZ1000 series-- support both Dolby Vision IQ and a Film Maker mode with Panasonic "Intelligent Sensing" to bring what the company claims is "Hollywood-level" HDR performance in both dark and well-lit living rooms. The HZ2000 and HZ1500 series TVs also feature built-in upward-firing speakers capable of pushing immersive Dolby Atmos audio, and all OLED models have the same fine tuning by Hollywood colourist Stefan Sonnenfield as well as UHD Premium certification.
A followup to the PSVR headset makes sense. After all, the PS5 promises to be backwards compatible with PS4 games, providing it with a ready library or VR-enabled software. One also has to keep in mind the original PSVR headset was a success, with sales reaching over 5 million units, meaning consumers should be ready for a more powerful version. That said, no details are available regarding the capabilities of such a sequel, but the 2017 "CUH-ZVR2" model hints at features such as better cable management, a slimmer connection cable and an updated processor box with HDR passthrough support.
