You should know that Panasonic introduced the first mass-produced 3D TV in 2010. The peak of sales of such TV sets was in 2011-2014. After that, 3D technology was considered unpromising, and only some TV models supported 3D until 2018. As of 2017, Panasonic stopped producing 3D TVs for the North American market. For the European market, the last 3D TVs were introduced in 2017.
How long did the era of Panasonic 3D TVs last?
- The first Panasonic 3D TVs were introduced in 2010; they were plasma TVs.
- In 2011, Panasonic LCD televisions with 3D support were introduced.
- In 2013, plasma TVs were discontinued; this was the last year of plasma TVs; Panasonic held the plasma TV market for the longest.
- In 2017, the last 3D TV model went on sale, and the era of 3D TVs ended. The last 3D TV was released in the North American market in 2016.
3D glasses for Panasonic Viera TVs
Because of the worsening TV sales crisis, Panasonic was forced to leave the North American market. But 3D televisions are still in use. And since TVs last longer than glasses, you may need to buy new 3D glasses to replace your broken ones. This article will help you find the suitable glasses model to ensure they work correctly with your TV.
Panasonic makes TVs with active and passive technology, so there are two types of glasses.
- Passive 3D glasses: have polarized plastic, and each eye sees its image, creating volume. By the way, this technology is used in movie theaters.
- Active 3D glasses: These glasses have polarized glasses with a battery built in. The glasses synchronize with the TV and alternately darken the glasses in the glasses. These glasses are more expensive and require periodic battery replacement.

You may need separate 3D glasses compatibility tables for Panasonic TVs. The model numbers of the TVs may be slightly different. For example, for the North American market, the TVs are made in Mexico and have some differences. In the UK and Ireland, TV models may also differ; TVs have features and built-in broadcast services that are not used in other countries. Using the Panasonic Viera 3D glasses and TV models compatibility tables, you can easily find the right 3D glasses for your needs.
