Is the Panasonic S65C a smart TV?

Yes. Fire TV is built in, so Netflix and other streaming apps run on the set itself and the remote has Alexa voice control. You do not need a Fire TV Stick.

No. The panel is 1920 x 1080 (1080p) Full HD. It accepts HDR content but cannot show 4K resolution.

Can I connect a console and a soundbar?

Yes. There are three HDMI ports, plus optical audio, AUX, USB, Bluetooth and Ethernet. A soundbar can go over HDMI or optical.

Is 60 Hz good enough for gaming?

It is fine for casual and last-generation console play. Competitive gamers wanting 120 Hz will need a different set.

How wide is the viewing angle?

Panasonic rates it at 178 degrees, so the picture stays visible from well off to the side, which helps in bedrooms and kitchens.

Does it need a wall mount?

It can sit on its stand or be wall mounted. The set is about 2.9 inches deep, so it sits fairly close to the wall.

Our take on the Panasonic S65C 40" Full HD QLED Fire TV

The Panasonic S65C is a 40-inch 1080p QLED television with Amazon's Fire TV built in, so streaming apps and Alexa voice control work without a separate stick or box. Its QLED panel and HDR support aim to lift color and contrast beyond plain LED sets at this size, and the 178-degree viewing angle keeps the picture usable from the side of a room. Three HDMI ports, Wi-Fi, Ethernet and Bluetooth cover consoles, soundbars and wired networks. It suits bedrooms, kitchens, dorms and small living rooms where a 4K panel would be wasted; shoppers wanting sharper 4K or high-refresh gaming should look at larger 4K Fire TV models instead.
