Does Panasonic still make televisions?
Yes, but with a reduced product range and geographic presence. Panasonic has significantly scaled back its television business, which faces intense competition from Samsung and LG. The company continues to produce Viera-branded OLED and LED televisions, primarily for the Japanese and European markets, but no longer competes aggressively in the North American TV market. Panasonic has shifted its consumer electronics focus toward home appliances and the Lumix camera line.
