A Panasonic OLED TV for under £500? No, I'm not kidding!

We were starting to think we'd never see the day that an OLED TV would be available for less than £500, yet here that day is.

The 48-inch Panasonic MZ800 is now available for an incredible £499 at Hughes.

To get that price, you need to add code EXTRA100 at checkout. But be quick – we've no idea how long that voucher will work!

We haven't tested this specific TV, and it is a 2023 model, but we think it could be worth a punt given the super-low price. It launched with a price tag of £1399, but it's now cheaper than any other OLED available right now, as you can see from our list of the best OLED TV deals.

While we haven’t reviewed this model, OLED pretty much guarantees a certain degree of quality.

The fact it is a Panasonic TV is also a good sign. The brand focuses on delivering picture and sound “as the director intended”, meaning it has a pretty authentic approach to picture quality.

The MZ800B supports Dolby Vision as well as HDR10 and HLG, so you’ve got plenty of options when it comes to HDR content, and the Android TV operating system will grant access to lots of streaming apps – though it’s possible that BBC iPlayer isn’t on board.

There are also only three HDMI sockets and the TV doesn’t support 4K/120Hz or VRR. This means the model is not going to be a great choice for hardcore gamers, but if you are more of a casual player, it could be the model for you.

If you want to snag an OLED TV at a killer price, get this deal while you can.
