Each of these sets has a plastic enclosure bolted to the rear of its super-slim OLED panel, but Philips’ Ambilight tech, combined with a surprisingly large rear-firing subwoofer, make this enclosure both wider and deeper than that of most rivals. Information about the maximum vertical viewing angle, within which the image on the screen is of acceptable quality. Memory size (Flash): 16 G, the actual available disc space may differ (dependant on e.g. (pre-)installed apps, installed operating system, etc.) The 8506 series is Philips’ affordable range of TVs aimed at the mainstream buyer. They’re available in many sizes and carry some of the premium features seen in the TVs above.

HDR Personal is brighter still, but offers a distinctly cooler image, with a bluey tinge that we found off putting and overly stark. The longest time for my TV I’ve seen is 522 minutes before the OFFRS above and 254 hours before the JB, so that’s around 8 hours before needing the 10 minute refresh - does that fit with your on time?The sharpness holds up almost eerily well, too, when objects are moving around on screen or there's a camera pan to deal with. Philips' motion processing can remove essentially all motion judder and blur. The only problem with this is that films tend to look like soap operas, and also suffer from a few distracting unwanted side effects. Information about the minimum amount of time, in which the pixels change from one color to another. Very often the manufacturer provides the response time for transition from grey-to-grey (G2G). Sizes:43-inch (43PUS8506), 50-inch (50PUS8506), 58-inch (58PUS8506), 65-inch (65PUS8506), 70-inch (70PUS8506), 75-inch (75PUS8506) For the time being, the OLED+935 continues through to 2021 with its successor likely coming in the second half of the year. The OLED+935 has the 4th Gen P5 AI processor with its dedicated AI Machine Learn Sharpness function, and improved versions of the AI Smart Bit Enhancement system and Perfect Natural Reality (PNR) function for upscaling sub-4K images and handling motion.

Switching to the 4K Blu-ray of 1917, also in Dolby Vision, the Philips proves that it’s just as capable with more subtle source material. There’s a fine line between delivering the film’s muted palette and draining the life out of the picture, and it’s one that the Philips treads with confidence.With the maturity of technologies such as OLED and QLED every year the competition for best all round television gets more competitive. Over the last few years Philips has been on a staggering rise to join this conversation so when I had the chance to sit down with their newest OLED model I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. Read on as we examine the new Philips 65OLED856 and see how it fits into a very competitive market. The Philips 48OLED806 is such a great size. If you’re thinking of replacing a smaller, older TV, then don’t discount this 48-incher. Its minimal bezel might well mean that it comes up a lot smaller than you think.

Philips’ TV App collection is left out, though we can’t imagine many will be crestfallen by that. There is VRR but no eARC or an auto low latency mode.

Philips 55OLED856/12 - Technical Overview

This TV offers superb value for money, not only in its performance but in its spec sheet too. It’s great to see both Dolby Vision and HDR10+ supported, plus features like HDMI 2.1/eARC and Dolby Atmos. Lower resolution content isn’t dismissed by the OLED806 either. 1080p footage looks almost as good as native 4K content, with only a slight coarsening of fine detail to give the game away – and a little less positivity where edge definition is concerned. Even bog-standard TV broadcasts remain watchable, though they’re a bit soft and noisy by comparison.
