Sanyo, Toshiba, Renesas, Fujitsu, Hitachi, JVC, Panasonic, TDK, Wacom etc...

Audio Technica
Fostex

And on the non-consumer end of things, Japan also makes a lot of industrial tech that's world-class, from companies like DMG Mori, Okuma, etc.

Another niche, if you count them as tech, is watches. Seiko and Citizen make great and often innovative products, but are frequently "forgotten" since they're mostly at the low end of the market.

Music gear is a good category too. Korg and Zoom are a few more examples.

nippon chemi-con produces decent capacitors

Is Roland not good anymore?

Sony audio, TV, sensors

>>55720422
Technics/Panasonic, Sanyo, Fujitsu, Sony, nichicon, Elna, NEC, Toshiba, etc.

Consumer electronics wise there isn't much to discuss in terms of Japanese

Still plenty of good industry and enterprise companies

Why Japan so good at technology?

Why not Poland?

Toshiba's hard drive division is hot shit.

>>55723697
um. That's the same company.

>>55720422

Nippon Chemicon

Without them most of your PC parts would last a year at best and not handle 24/7 uptime at all.

>>55727802
poland got invaded by germans and then proped up by soviets
japan got BTFO'ed and then proped up by the americans

Why did Sony go to shit

>>55720422
ARM

Panasonic, Fujitsu, JVC, Hitachi

Softbank

Kyoto Animation

>>55720422
Anything audio electronics related from Japan is quality. It's like the only thing Sony kept caring about.

>>55730507
Sony cares about lots of things but like most Japanese companies they only release the best shit domestically.

http://www.consumerreports.org/lcd-led-oled-tvs/why-you-might-be-having-a-tough-time-buying-a-panasonic-tv/

plasma screens were always superior to LCD/LED (might still be better than OLED) and didn't seem to do well. Panasonic/Toshiba TVs have typically been my favorite but theyre all but gone in the US... Toshiba TVs became some kinda weird Best Buy only brand, and every other TV is a fucking screen-lottery Samsung or used-to-be-generic Vizio. LG's are aight, I guess, but seems the worst Koreans somehow BTFO the Japanese in more than one major consumer market for the West. How??? I have no clue. Aliums?
