Polaroid is a historic American brand originally famous for its instant film cameras. While the original Polaroid Corporation went through bankruptcy in the early 2000s, the brand name survived through licensing agreements. Today, Polaroid-branded televisions are typically produced by third-party manufacturers like Empire Electronics or specialized Chinese original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) who license the name.

The brand's intellectual property is currently owned by the Polaroid B.V. group (formerly Impossible Project), which successfully brought the iconic instant camera brand back to its roots. However, the consumer electronics line, including TVs, continues to operate under distinct licensing models varying by global region, with production primarily centered in major manufacturing hubs like China or Turkey (via Vestel).
