I owned a Panasonic Plasma prior to purchasing my existing Loewe Bild7.55 nearly 7 years ago.

I recently compared the Loewe Stellar against the latest Panasonic Z95B at a Loewe/Panasonic dealership (that is also a Meridian/Trinnov dealership).

The Loewe Stellar (at twice the price) wiped the floor with the Panasonic Z95B. The motion panning stutter on the Z95B was unwatchable/unacceptable compared to the silky smooth motion panning on the Stellar. Once you see the stuttering, you can't unsee it.

While Loewe sources their panels from LG, Loewe designs/installs their own internal electronics. The latest version of the Stellar has ditched the previous TizenOS from Samsung (without Dolby Vision) for the VidaaOS from Hisense (with Dolby Vision).

I completely understand if folk simply don’t have the budget for the Loewe Stellar - and that they believe that the Z95B is an acceptable compromise for the price. However, if you’re planning on keeping it for the long term, I highly recommend paying the extra funds on the Loewe Stellar.

Loewe has always had a leg up on everyone when it came to motion and panning. The scene from U571 with the sub moving down the channel was to go to demo when we sold Lowe's in the retail store.

Whenever I audition a Loewe OLED, I always prompt the dealer that my Wife is 'the customer’, as she is always the one who needs little incentive to buy a Loewe, who's more impressed than I, and to show her why spending so much on it is worth it.
