Rich HD Ready Display
On a medium-sized screen like this, HD Ready 720p gives delightful compact detail. Delve in the crisp visuals of this backlit display, and reap the bill-busting rewards of a greener home with its efficient energy consumption. Panasonic’s display has an exceptional brightness and colour range, so you’ll get a full spectrum to enjoy a spectacular viewing experience.

Adaptive Backlight Dimming
The screen delivers both deep blacks in dark scenes and plenty of punch in bright scenes. This is all down to the Adaptive Backlight Dimming that constantly analyses incoming pictures so that they can adjust their light output to produce the optimum picture quality.

Freeview Play
This Panasonic TV features Freeview Play. Combining catch-up TV, on-demand services and live television, watching what you want, when you want, is now easier than ever. It’s free from subscription and is compatible with existing broadband services too. Services such as BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, All 4 and Demand 5 are also available without having to open specific applications. This gives effortless scroll back so you never miss a second of your favourite shows.

Intuitive Smart Platform
Powered by Firefox OS, ‘my Home Screen 2.0’ provides quick and intuitive access to the content you want. With regular updates, it will ensure that you stay on track with all the latest technology developments and content. Use a variety of apps from the ES500’s customisable home screen. Cloud services let you easily use fully-fledged, large-data games and a wealth of content services, so you can quickly switch over from watching TV to playing games, and it's compatible with Netflix, Amazon Video and Youtube.*

USB Recording & Playback
Once you plug in a USB to this TV, you can record live TV straight on to it. This way, you can load up shows or movies that you missed and take them anywhere. Furthermore, you can playback personal music, photos or videos on the big screen – just plug in and enjoy.

Perfect partners
With TVs getting slimmer and built-in speakers getting smaller, choosing the right sound system is more important than ever. Soundbars enhance your TV’s sound quality and add that extra audio punch to all your movies, games and TV programmes. More affordable and easier to set up than a full size speaker system, they don’t compromise on quality either.

Don't forget...
If you want to connect your TV to a blu-ray player, games console, soundbar or soundbase then you'll need a HDMI cable.
