Panasonic Z95B (2025, UK)
Built-in far-field microphone
Has micThis model has a built-in far-field microphone, which is the hardware hands-free voice control uses.
Panasonic's UK launch announcement identifies the 55-, 65-, and 77-inch Z95B family and explicitly says it has far-field voice control for hands-free Alexa use from across the room.
Automatic content recognition (ACR), including over HDMI
Runs ACRThis model runs Panasonic's ACR feature (branded "Automatic Content Recognition"), which analyzes on-screen content — including over HDMI — to identify what's playing.
What ACR is and how to turn it off →
This model runs Fire TV, and Amazon's own official Automatic Content Recognition help page — not Panasonic's — describes the feature directly: when enabled, it fingerprints content "through connected devices, such as a cable set-top-box" (not just Amazon's own apps) by sampling audio or pixels and matching against a database, and can be managed at Settings → Preferences → Privacy Settings → Automatic Content Recognition. Amazon's page doesn't state whether it's on by default. Enabling it on one Fire TV device doesn't enable it on others.
