Panasonic Viera DX902 4K TV review: Honeycomb-sweet picture quality

The big sell with the Panasonic DX902 (or DX900 in other regions) is that this 4K TV is about as close as you’ll get to a professional reference monitor in the home.

That’s a fairly lofty comparison, as reference monitors are incredibly expensive, designed to show movie directors what the action looks like in their Hollywood studios. And with HDR (high dynamic range) being the talk of 2016, the message of this year’s flagship TVs is that you’ll be watching what the director intended.

It’s a message you’ll hear from all sides, but in Panasonic’s flagship 2016 television that isn’t just talk. In many ways, it actually delivers on this promise, balancing wonderful performance with a tempting price, but there are a few shortcomings too.

Where the Panasonic DX902 – or Viera TX-58DX902B to use its full name in this 58-inch guise (there’s also a 65-inch model) – perhaps struggles to match its rivals is in design. Not the entire design – this is a premium-looking television, with minimal bezel and screen that’s edged in a very tidy textured aluminium band – but in thickness. It’s just a bit chunkier than some of the competition.
