Philips 55OLED706/12 55-Inch 4K OLED TV | Ambilight, UHD & HDR10+ | Dolby Vision & Dolby Atmos | Multi-room DTS Play-Fi | Google Assistant & Alexa Compatible [Energy Class G]

(Purchased for £979, December 2021)After an awful experience with Amazon (First order got 'lost' in transit and had to wait nearly two weeks for them to resolve the issue after paying for a specified next-day time slot) the TV eventually arrived and i am very happy.Had never considered Ambilight to be an important factor but it's never off. It definitely helps eye strain and also acts as additional lighting for the room on dark evenings (as well as creating a more immersive experience).It's my first OLED so i can't really compare to others but i'm very pleased with the picture quality. Even standard definiton TV channels look ok!The only issue i've had so far is that there's no space for a soundbar as the bottom of the screen sits very close to the unit. But the sound from this TV is very impressive. I used a 5.1 surround system on my old TV so was used to very good bass and clarity but there have only been a couple of occasions where the sound from this TV hasn't been able meet my requirements. It's also VERY loud. I think it goes up to 50, but anything past half way is far too loud for normal listening.I'll probably spend the next 6 months messing around with picture settings until i'm happy i'm getting the best possible picture, but in all honesty, the out-of-the-box settings look great as they are so it's not necessary to tweak unless you're really into that sort of thing.This is a very strong competitor to the 'Best OLED on the market LG C1, which is probably why they've put the price up by £450 since i purchased mine.

My first foray into the exciting 120hz world, really wanted as I picked up an Xbox Series X a while back. A few notes: this TV is THIN on most of the bezel, take care moving it and setting it up, you really want 2 people!Setup of the physical TV is simple enough - a few screws for the stand legs (or your VESA mount solution) and you're off to the races. There's some built in cable management on the legs, which work well in theory but in practice don't align all that nicely with the management outlets on the real panel.On the software side of things, you have a recent version of Android TV OS, and a system update right out of the box. I was able to connect up to my Sonos BEAM and Xbox quickly enough, but getting things configured on both the TV settings and Sonos / Xbox settings did take a bit of fiddling. (My Sonos doesn't have Atmos, so getting the configuration right was key: it was multichannel uncompressed!)Once you're up and running, the TV experience is great - excellent colour reproduction for an OLED in this price range, no ghosting effects, and action on sports and action films has looked great in the initial impression period. For my main use - gaming - it's an excellent monitor. The TV switches to game mode when a game starts up, with Dolby Vision/ Atmos enabled automatically, and the 120hz and VRR work very well indeed! Highly recommended, if you have supporting kit and the patience to get things set up right.

Firstly having owned a few oleds in my time lg sony i saw the philips new range starting to make a big impression in the av scene the new p5 image processor android google os it looked tempting then i saw the ambi light demo wow impressed i would not be without it now its superb feature having seen the great pic on the lg c1 fab tv i have to say its just as good picture with better sound system one of best tv speaker systems too great tv stylish great pic once i had adjusted to my like its great value for a feature packed 120hz panel hdmi 2.1 oled its quite bright too with light boost set maximum plus disabled light sensor feature it shines hdr dolby vision is superb proposition if your looking at an oled plus the ambi lights wow seriously impressive lighting

I like nearly everything about this TV apart from the remote and external ambi light.The remote is very out of date. What remote in 2022 has a number pad? Is massive, bulky and wasteful in space. It is also IR rather than Bluetooth.Also ambi light is nice. I bought a Philips Hue bridge, a strip, two orbs and some plug sockets.Every single time tou turn off the TV by the wall it will forget all your external ambi light settings. You will need to go into your settings and configure your hue bridge every single time.Also the TV has no RTC. So on power up the time and date is wrong. You need to wait for a time update before you can go on certain apps.

Lovely picture and with ambilight feature no need for extra lighting

The TV was delivered in a very professional manner,and after I unboxed and set it up it definitely brought on the wow factor in my opinion,I tested it watching something in uhd format and the quality of the picture was the best I've ever seen,the remote control is smart and very easy to use,and the ambilight is very cool,and as for gameplay through my ps5 well all I can say is absolutely brilliant,in my opinion I can highly recommend this product.

This TV is absolutely superp, picture quality is very good rich colour and excellent blacks. Ambilight just add an extra emersion. Works perfect with ps5 and x box s 120 frame mode great bonus.Highly recommended especially at the price

wow just wow i wasn't sure i could justify spending this sort of money on a tv but i can seriously say the picture and sound etc are awesome,playing games on my xbox series x on this just takes gaming to another level and films n series are so much better now than on my old 4k tv
