Panasonic has revealed a fleet of new TVs for 2014 at its annual convention, with the pick of the litter being the introduction of a new 4K Ultra HD Viera AX900 series.The company was hesitant to reveal any specs and was instead intent on letting us know about its flagship of the moment, the Panasonic Viera AX800. Available in screen sizes of 50, 58 and 65-inches, the AX800 series will be arriving in stores later this spring.
Both series consist of LED LCD panels, confirming the demise of plasma. Offering a bleeding-edge 3,840 x 2,160 pixel resolution, the AX800 series uses a Hexa Processing Engine PRO chip to maximize the image quality for both native 4K content and regular HD material.
In terms of what 4K content you'll actually be able to watch, well, there still isn't really any yet. However, Panasonic also announced it has extended its sponsorship of the Olympic Games up until Tokyo 2020, by which time it says that 4K will be the adopted standard.
The company hasn't yet revealed pricing or a firm UK release date for the AS800 or AX800 series, but we'll update you as soon as we hear more.
