Compare: Panasonic Z95B vs Haier Q80FUX

Panasonic Z95B is equipment that makes it hard not to raise your eyebrows in delight. From the very first moments, it's clear that we're dealing with an absolutely exceptional screen, capable of bringing out the best in films and games. The black levels are perfect, brightness in HDR is stunning, and the colours – whether in movie mode or gaming – show that the factory calibration at Panasonic has reached a level that other manufacturers can only aspire to. Add to this the fantastic sound from the built-in soundbar and excellent viewing angles, and you have a television picture that, in terms of image quality and overall audiovisual immersion, seems to be complete. But the longer we used it, the more the impression grew that we were encountering a device that was somewhat split. On one hand, it acts like a reference monitor, perfect for assessing video material and enjoying films or series, and even for gaming; on the other hand, it's a television that can disappoint in its everyday functionality. FireTV in its current version can be frustrating, there are far fewer apps than competitors, some won't install at all, and the system can easily stumble. There are also strange system problems like the lack of support for basic subtitles in films from USB – these may seem like minor details, but they contribute to the overall impression of a device that is far from ideal in daily use. And this is where the biggest paradox of the Z95B appears. It's a television that probably offers one of the best images currently available in showrooms, while also being one that is hard to recommend as a typical "television" without reservations. The competition, although often visually slightly weaker, tends to be simply more user-friendly and costs significantly less. Therefore, the Z95B is a proposition for image purists, for those who seek a reference screen and are willing to accept all the compromises related to the non-functioning features. For them, it will be a dream device. For others – a demonstration of Panasonic's strength and more of a curiosity.

The Haier Q80FUX television is one of the most schizophrenic propositions we have had in our editorial office for a long time. On one hand, we have a solid piece of equipment: a VA panel guaranteeing deep blacks, as expected for this segment, and a QLED quantum filter that can indeed generate juicy, eye-catching colours. This is the foundation on which a truly competitive mid-range receiver could have been built. Unfortunately, all this potential of the matrix is systematically undermined by the software, which is a real anchor for this model. The biggest Achilles' heel of the Q80FUX is its total capitulation in dealing with HDR10 materials. The electronics seem to completely misunderstand how to interpret the signal, resulting in it consistently blowing out the brightest parts of the image, turning them into a flat, milky spot. Adding to this is the Google TV system, which – while functional – is unstable, full of bugs and annoying oversights, giving us an image of a raw product that clearly reveals the producer's lack of experience. Just when we were about to write this model off, we discovered its surprising niche. After connecting a console, the Q80FUX undergoes a transformation. It turns out that this television offers remarkably low input lag, fully supports VRR, and can handle a 120Hz signal in Full HD resolution. In the gaming world, where responsiveness is everything, these parameters put it in a very good light. So we are dealing with a device of very narrow specialization. It is not a universal living room television – it lacks stability and, above all, any correctness in handling films. It is rather a budget, large-format monitor for gamers, who can consciously forgive it all the software flaws in exchange for those few key attributes for console/PC at a relatively affordable price.

The black level and contrast in the Panasonic Z95B can be summed up in one word – perfection. As with every OLED TV, the panel controlling individual pixels allows for complete dimming of parts of the image, resulting in absolute black. This means the Z95B offers perfect separation between bright and dark elements of the scene, with no visible halos, brightenings or halo effects on the screen. Even in the most demanding sequences, where other LCD TVs reveal their limitations, the picture here remains clear and readable. In practice, it’s hard to imagine that in this category OLEDs could improve any further, as the technology of self-dimming pixels simply has no weak points when it comes to contrast. The Panasonic Z95B follows this trend and demonstrates that when it comes to black levels, there is no room for significant improvements – it sets a reference level that is hard to surpass.

I must admit that approaching a TV in this price range, one instinctively crosses their fingers, hoping that at least the black won't be a grey blotch. Meanwhile, the Haier Q80FUX, specifically the 55-inch unit we have in our office, can pleasantly surprise in this regard. Its secret lies in the use of a VA panel, which tends to generate high contrast by nature. And these are not empty promises. During screenings, in the majority of film scenes, the contrast reported itself at levels ranging from 5000:1 with commendable regularity, often reaching as high as 8000:1. These are really strong results, considering the fact that this TV has no, not even minimal, form of local dimming. Translating this into couch-side experiences: for its price point, the Q80FUX offers solid black levels. Of course, it isn’t that perfectly velvety depth that makes the screen disappear into darkness. When we conduct a viewing in total light isolation, we can see that in the darkest parts of the image, the black betrays its budget origins, subtly shifting towards a bluish glow. However, this is a defect that is easy to mask – just a bit of light from a lamp in the corner of the room is enough for this nuance to become invisible, and the image regains a satisfying depth.

The HDR effect quality in the Panasonic Z95B is among the absolute best. Thanks to the latest generation panel, named Primary RGB Tandem OLED by the manufacturer, the television can achieve over 2000 nits of brightness in movie scenes. The effect is impressive and can amaze with its intensity of light, giving a sense of contact with the screen that goes beyond previous experiences. Similar feelings were only experienced during tests of the LG G5, Samsung S95F, or Philips OLED910. Of course, there are moments when the device's algorithms decide to limit luminance – this especially applies to full-screen bright sequences, such as the ending credits in the movie The Meg. Even then, the Z95B maintains a level of around 1500 nits, which is still an extremely impressive result. Thus, it can be said that HDR in this model has been brought to a masterful form. A significant step forward is also visible in the reproduction of the colour palette. The new tandem OLED panel does not yet match the best QD-OLED screens in terms of gamut coverage, but the gap between these solutions has significantly decreased. When watching films, the differences are subtle enough that under normal conditions it's hard to notice them, and the colours remain vibrant and saturated.

Alright, let's move on to the topic that really sparks discussions, which is the capabilities of the TV in HDR mode. Let's be clear from the start: the Haier Q80FUX is certainly not a brightness demon. The panel of this set can generate about 350 nits at peak, which in today's reality is an absolute minimum to even talk about the presence of HDR expanded dynamic range. On the plus side, this brightness is at least stable – regardless of the test pattern or film scene we used, measurements consistently hovered around 300-350 nits. These are at best adequate results, definitely far from the dazzling display of capabilities that we know from more expensive models. Fortunately, there is one aspect where the Q80FUX makes up for these shortcomings and does so considerably. We are talking about a QLED TV (or more precisely PFS LED), which means that thanks to the quantum dot filter used on the panel, it can generate truly juicy, vibrant colours. These are not empty promises – covering nearly 95% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut is an impressive result and directly translates into very pleasant, saturated colours for the eye.

The factory colour reproduction in Filmmaker mode, my dear friends, is a true phenomenon in the case of the Panasonic Z95B. I'm talking about our test sample, but the results were so good that it's hard to believe. The only detail that one could nitpick is a slight lack of blue in the white balance, but apart from that, the television straight out of the box presented an image like we have never seen in factory mode. Colour palette tests, Color Checker – everything indicated values below Delta 2. This is a much lower result than the threshold of human eye perception, which means, to put it simply, that the viewer has no chance of noticing serious deviations. It looks as if Panasonic actually calibrated this model at the factory stage. Of course, we cannot exclude the possibility that we got an exceptionally well-set specimen, but the result still makes a stunning impression. We are very strict when it comes to assessing factory calibration, and here our jaws simply dropped.

Factory settings for movie mode are seldom perfect, but in the case of the Q80FUX, we encountered a noticeable imbalance. In SDR content, the image was definitely too warm, due to an excessive amount of red in the white balance, giving the overall picture a slight sepia tone. Conversely, in HDR materials, the television fell into the other extreme – an excess of blue caused an unnatural, cool effect in perception. However, it wasn't the fickle white balance that was the biggest issue with this TV. The real culprit, responsible for the previously described problems, was hiding deeper. It turned out that the Q80FUX has completely miscalibrated gamma values and, crucial for HDR, a poorly executed EOTF curve. It was these erroneous factory settings that caused the notorious clipping of the brightest parts of the image, imposing that characteristic milky filter over them. Thus, we found the source of the problem. This situation led to general, significant colour inaccuracies that were easy to catch even for an untrained eye. Like every television we tested, we decided to calibrate this model as well, and you can find the results of these adjustments in the next paragraph.

The colour reproduction after calibration on the Z95B is a topic that’s hard to elaborate on, as there wasn’t much to do here. A slight adjustment of the white balance was enough to eliminate the lack of blue, and at that moment, the picture jumped to an almost reference level. It must be said that we haven’t had such a small range of adjustments in a long time. If any of you are particularly perceptive, you might notice minimal deviations in the EOTF curve, but this is more related to the functioning of the dynamic tone mapping feature we mentioned earlier. In reality, this isn’t a flaw, but a characteristic of this solution, which intentionally alters the brightness profile depending on the scene. In summary, we are extremely impressed. The Panasonic Z95B is a television that looks great right out of the box, and after calibration, it reaches a level where we really struggle to find anything to improve.

The results of our calibration procedures must, unfortunately, be regarded as twofold. Generally speaking, the picture is undeniably better than before the adjustments; however, the biggest winner of this process has been SDR content. It is precisely here, after correcting the gamma curves and white balance, that we achieved results that can safely be called very good. Once set up, the Q80FUX truly shines in standard dynamic range, displaying only slight errors in the most challenging skin tones. Unfortunately, the weakest link remains HDR content. And here's the paradox: even though we managed to calibrate the white balance to near perfection, the overall colour errors still remain at quite a high level. The reason is that the television still interprets the static HDR10 metadata "in its own way," stubbornly enforcing that unfortunate image clipping effect, which inevitably leads to significant distortions. Although we successfully eliminated the factory excess of blue, due to this electronic interference, the screen can still veer into somewhat too cool tones. That’s just how this television is.

Posterisation, or colour banding, was the Achilles' heel of Panasonic's flagship last year, the Z95A. In the new Z95B, it's clear that the manufacturer has made an effort to improve this issue related to gradation, and the problem has largely been corrected. In most scenes, colour banding is no longer visible, and tonal transitions are smooth and look natural. However, this doesn't mean that the problem has completely disappeared. In extremely challenging sections, especially in very dark scenes like those from the film Green Knight, some imperfections can still be detected. Nevertheless, it's gratifying that Panasonic approached the issue seriously and made a significant step forward, as the difference compared to the previous model is truly noticeable.

Analysing the ability of the television to handle subtle tonal transitions, or "banding", leads us to some interesting conclusions. The Haier Q80FUX seamlessly blends adjacent colours in most scenes, creating a smooth, cohesive image. However, this process is not without its flaws. During our tests, we noticed minor issues and imperfections in each of the test scenes we used. These may not be errors that aggressively jump out and ruin the viewing experience, yet their presence is worth noting. Interestingly, this receiver does not exhibit any particular weaknesses or strengths in this regard – it handles this challenge in exactly the same way, regardless of whether it is displaying delicate gradients of a bright sky or dark transitions in shadows.

Let's start with what works well. The upscaling in the Z95B is at a very high level – the image in lower resolutions is clear and sharp, and the only minor shortcomings are slight banding in some areas of the picture. It's also important that the television doesn't crop the material in any way and maintains its proportions, which is not always an obvious fact even in 2025.

The situation looks worse when it comes to digital processing. Features like "gradation smoothing" or "block noise reduction" essentially do not work – the tested material looked identical regardless of the settings. We might as well say that this feature simply doesn't exist. It's a bit disappointing, especially since Panasonic heavily promotes its HCX Pro AI II processor, boasting the presence of artificial intelligence improving image quality. Meanwhile, in such a basic matter, the television does not deliver a real effect and it looks weaker than one would expect from top-tier equipment.

If there's one area where Haier clearly shows it still has a lot to catch up on compared to the market leaders, it's digital image processing. The upscaling, well... it's just okay. And that's really all that can be said about it. It does what it's supposed to do: ensures that lower resolution signals don't scare you with harsh pixelation on the screen and don't look like a forcibly enlarged postage stamp. However, it's far from the finesse and "intelligent" sharpening that more experienced players in this market have developed over the years. The biggest issue with the Q80FUX software is the almost complete lack of additional "cleaning" and smoothing features for the image. The receiver offers no noise reduction mechanisms or gradient enhancement. This means that with older or highly compressed materials, we simply have to accept that all the imperfections in tonal transitions or colour blending, which we mentioned earlier, will constantly accompany us during viewing.

The OLED panel with very high refresh rates already provides an incredibly sharp image even in dynamic sports scenes, such as football or basketball matches, and the Z95B is no exception. It's also very important that the television is equipped with the proprietary motion smoothing system 'Intelligent Frame Creation'. Among the available sliders, the most crucial one turns out to be the one called 'film smoothness', as it allows for adjusting the motion to personal preferences with 24-frame content, meaning films – from a more 'choppy' appearance to a smooth, almost theatrical effect. It's a bit disappointing that Panasonic didn't opt to push the latest OLED panel to 165 Hz, as Samsung did with the S95F or LG with the G5, because we know that the panel is technically capable of it. On the other hand, it mainly benefits PC gamers, so in everyday viewing, it's not a significant drawback as we are limited to 120Hz.

The issue of motion fluidity and blurring is largely predetermined by the use of a 60Hz panel, which naturally makes it difficult to recommend this receiver to enthusiasts of very dynamic content. Fortunately, in the Q80FUX, we find a few options (although, as will soon become clear, really just one) intended to enhance the experience with older film productions. There is a "De-Judder" slider available, which indeed affects motion fluidity and allows us to adjust it to our preferences: from raw, cinematic frame rates to a more theatrical, smoothed presentation. However, a true surprise awaits us right next to it in the menu. There is also a second slider, supposedly dedicated to removing blur – this is a feature we typically encounter in 120Hz panels, aimed at combating blurring in sports. As we expected, recalling memories from testing the K85F model, here too this slider is merely a façade. Its adjustment contributes absolutely nothing to the picture and simply seems to be an oversight by the product engineers who left a non-functional option in the software for this type of panel.

The Panasonic Z95B is fully equipped for gaming. Two HDMI 2.1 ports with a full bandwidth of 48 Gb/s guarantee support for everything you can expect from a modern screen. It features VRR frame syncing, an automatic game mode (ALLM), and full compatibility with HDR formats used in gaming. The TV supports both Dolby Vision for Xbox and the popular HGiG, which in this case has been implemented correctly, so it actually works as it should.

Although the brand is mainly associated with home cinema and equipment for filmmakers, there’s also space for gamer conveniences here. Onboard is the Game Bar (or rather Game Circles) – it looks a bit unusual visually, but it does its job and allows you to quickly check the most important image parameters. The only thing missing for complete satisfaction is actually having four HDMI 2.1 ports instead of two. It’s a minor detail, but with a TV of this class, one could expect a full set.

Entering the realm of gaming, the Haier Q80FUX proves to be quite a good companion for the "casual gamer." It is equipped with some highly sought-after features today such as VRR (variable refresh rate) and ALLM (automatic low latency mode). However, the biggest surprise is something else. Even though we don't have a 4K@120Hz panel here, the television can accept and display a 120Hz signal at a lower resolution (Full HD). This is a very useful feature, allowing you to consciously switch the console to a lower resolution mode in exchange for significantly higher fluidity, which is a perfectly acceptable compromise in the gaming world.

We won't particularly complain about the lack of additions like the "Game Bar," as it's just a nice extra. However, the most concerning issues arise when we enter the world of HDR in gaming. Due to the fact that the television continuously adapts the signal "in its own way," setting the brightness on the console according to the HGIG standard is almost impossible to accomplish according to the instructions. Worse still, in Dolby Vision mode for gaming, the input lag increases to around 50 ms, which is a high enough value that essentially makes this mode unusable. Generally speaking, we still wouldn't recommend gaming on this television in HDR mode, so these aren't that serious shortcomings. What’s most pleasing is the presence of 120Hz in Full HD, making the Q80FUX quite a cool television for the occasional gamer.

Regardless of the content being watched, the input lag on the Z95B is exceptionally low – even in Dolby Vision the TV operates at 120 Hz with a delay of less than 5 ms. This result places it at the very top of the screens for gaming. If we could, we would comfortably give it a score of 11/10. 😉

If there is one category in which the Haier Q80FUX absolutely shines and shows its claws, it is input lag. In this respect, the TV presents downright outstanding results. In 120Hz mode (achieved, let's remember, at a lower resolution), input lag drops below 10 ms, which is an excellent value, worthy of top gaming monitors. Only slightly worse, but still at a very good level, is the classic 60Hz mode – here, measurements consistently indicated around 12-14 ms. These are results that much more expensive, dedicated gaming constructions would not be ashamed of. The only, but significant, stumbling block is the Dolby Vision mode. As we established earlier, its activation raises input lag to an unacceptable level, so we definitely advise against using it during any interactive gameplay.

The Z95B can easily be connected to a computer and used as a large monitor. Sure, with the WOLED pixel arrangement, the fonts don't look as perfectly sharp as on typical monitors with IPS panels, and this can be noticed during office work, but it's hard to consider it a serious problem. Not many people buy such a TV for Excel. 😉 When it comes to gaming on PC, there’s nothing to complain about. The 144 Hz mode works brilliantly, and we have full support for G-Sync and AMD FreeSync, so frame synchronization works flawlessly with any graphics card. Despite minor issues with font display, it's hard for the Z95B to struggle in this role – it performs simply phenomenally as a gaming screen.

We also checked how the Q80FUX performs when connected to a computer. Here again, we were pleasantly surprised – it handles this really well. The most important thing is that the fonts are very readable, so nothing blurs and you can work normally on it. Additionally, just like with consoles: we can set a lower resolution here to achieve a high refresh rate of 120Hz in return. What’s crucial is that in this mode, G-Sync started correctly and functioned well. This just confirms that this television is truly a successful and efficient piece of gear for gaming, also on a PC.

In this respect, the Z95B performs really well. The drop in brightness at an angle is just 11 percent, which is exactly what the best QD-OLED panels and the previous generation MLA from LG Display are recording. This means that even when watching the TV from the side, there’s no impression that the image becomes washed out or difficult to read.

Colors do fade slightly at extreme angles and aren’t as stable as in QD-OLEDs, but it’s hard to consider that a serious issue. The picture still looks great, and you can be confident that when watching the Z95B from a large angle, everything remains clear. It's also worth noting the swivel stand in terms of viewing angles, as this practical solution allows you to easily adjust the screen so that everyone in the room has the best possible view.

Anyone planning screenings with a wide family group must be aware of the fundamental compromise that Haier has decided upon by implementing a VA panel in this model. This technology has indeed provided us with deep blacks and high contrast, but an inherent characteristic is also a noticeable narrowing of viewing angles. It’s enough to sit a bit further to the side of the couch to immediately notice how the colours start to lose saturation and the image fades. It’s simply a classic trade-off – we gain something (contrast) at the expense of something else (angles) – and the Q80FUX fits perfectly into this scheme.

The year 2025 is the time when it can be confidently said that OLEDs are suitable for viewing even in brightly lit rooms. The new generation of WOLED panels, used in the Z95B, can achieve truly high brightness – the average value for the Z95B in SDR mode is as much as 623 nits. This is a result that just a few years ago was beyond the reach of this technology. Of course, it is not at the level of the best LCD televisions designed for bright lounges, and the panel itself, glossy with a gentle filter, handles glare suppression moderately well. Nevertheless, it’s hard to have major objections. The Z95B easily copes in most daylight conditions, and you can comfortably watch TV or movies even when a lot of light is coming into the room.

The receiver's clash with the daily challenges posed by a bright lounge is quite decent with the Q80FUX, although it's certainly hard to talk about perfection here. The panel itself is equipped with a coating that effectively manages to suppress most reflections and glare from the surroundings. Equally important, even in more challenging lighting conditions, the screen can maintain pleasantly saturated colours. However, the weakness of this construction is revealed when backlight brightness comes into play. The previously mentioned, rather moderate maximum brightness (around 350 nits) means that in confrontation with intense natural light coming through the window, the screen often struggles to "break through." On a sunny day, the image might simply lack the necessary expressive strength.

Smart TV: Amazon FireTV

Panasonic's Z95B uses the Fire TV system, which is a platform created by Amazon. This is a significant change because just two years ago the company relied on its own Linux-based system. At first glance, everything looks good – the interface is clear, and the operation is quite simple. Additionally, we have AirPlay, which allows you to stream photos or videos from your iPhone, as well as screen mirroring from both Windows and Android phones. The TV also works with Amazon Alexa voice assistant, but here a rather strong limitation quickly arises. In practice, only a few of the most popular languages work well, such as English, while Polish is still not available, and there’s no indication of when it will be.

Classic Features

Here things become at least strange. During testing in the editorial office, the TV refused to find any channels – neither satellite nor terrestrial. As a result, we couldn’t check the functionality of PiP or the operation of the tuner itself. The only certain thing is USB recording, as right after connecting a USB drive, the TV immediately asked if we wanted to format it for this purpose. The remote looks quite classic – it’s large, with a full numeric keypad, and a plus is that you don’t have to aim at the screen since it operates with RF technology.

Everyday Usage Issues

The biggest disappointment, however, arises with the apps and system stability. Some apps are simply unavailable in Poland, others can be found but cannot be downloaded as they are tied to specific markets. On top of that, there are strange bugs, untranslated menu elements, and occasional "freezes," which can effectively diminish the enjoyment of using such a good screen as the Z95B. So, it can be said that while the Z95B impresses with its picture quality as a "monitor," as a smart TV it can be frustrating and disappointing across the board.

SmartTV on Haier Q80FUX: GoogleTV

First up, let's take a look at the smart layer, which in the Q80FUX is managed by the Google TV system. This is theoretically a huge advantage, providing access to an incredible library of apps, making it easy to cast from mobile devices, and offering convenient voice search. Unfortunately, like in other models from this brand that we've tested, the implementation of this platform leaves much to be desired. It’s not even about drastic freezes or delays in navigation, but rather a festival of minor bugs, shortcomings, and terrible translations in the menu. Because of this, it's hard to consider "Google TV" in Haier's version on par with what we know from Sony or TCL receivers, even though the same, proudly sounding name is on the box.

Classic Features

Moving on to the classic, functional features of the TV, the device's performance does not improve at all. The only thing worth praising is the presence of Bluetooth connectivity and an unusual but handy relic of the past in the form of an analogue headphone jack output. Apart from that, it's hard to find anything that would excite us. Due to the problematic software, the receiver (like its predecessors in our tests) was unable to find any terrestrial TV channels, even though other TVs connected to the same installation had no such issues. The remote control is also strange – its design may appeal to some, but due to the lack of a numeric keypad and the absurd placement of some buttons on the side edge, it definitely cannot be called senior-friendly.

Here we also encountered another issue with the Fire TV system. The built-in player handles popular audio and video files without any problems, so at first glance, everything seems fine. However, the problem starts when we want to enable subtitles in movies. We were unable to launch any format – neither .srt, nor .sub, nor .txt. Regardless of the settings, the subtitles simply did not appear. So if you have a film with a separate subtitle file, you are forced to watch it in the original language unless the subtitles have been permanently embedded in the image. Considering the quality of this television, it's quite a disappointment and further proof that Fire TV still has plenty of shortcomings that can ruin the joy of use.

We must admit that after a series of setbacks we faced in assessing the overall implementation of the Google TV system, we approached the media player test with a fair bit of caution. Meanwhile, in this one specific aspect, the Q80FUX served us a real surprise. The built-in app for handling files from USB drives works simply brilliantly. This software component seems to be completely immune to the issues plaguing the rest of the system, opening practically all the most important and popular video file formats that we threw at it.

The built-in audio system in the Panasonic Z95B is truly impressive. The manufacturer has added an extra soundbar that completely changes the audio experience of the television – this time, it can confidently be said that no external equipment is needed to enjoy full and dynamic sound. The bass is clear and surprisingly strong, dialogues remain intelligible even during louder action scenes, and the television can play quite loudly, reaching levels of up to 91 decibels. Another positive is the full support for Dolby Atmos, so if you’re using films or streaming services that support this format, you can expect spatial and impressive sound. A certain limitation is the lack of support for DTS:X – if someone plans to connect a home theatre or Blu-ray player with this standard, they must consider that the television will not play it, but this shouldn't be a major concern looking at how all manufacturers approach this standard. I suppose we have to come to terms with that.

When it comes to "acoustic experiences," the Haier Q80FUX seems to adhere to the principle that sound is simply meant to be. And it is – that's about all that can be said for it. The built-in speakers produce sound in an extremely flat manner, lacking character, and most importantly, they are missing any clear bass foundation. A slight consolation is the fact that the television supports the Dolby Atmos format. However, let's be honest: to realistically take advantage of the benefits of this codec and hear the promised space, passive decoding capability is simply not enough. Connecting an external home theatre system or at least a decent soundbar is not just a recommendation in this case; it's an absolute necessity.
