Description

Ambilight TV

Ambilight TVs are the only TVs with LED lights behind the screen that respond to what you're watching, immersing you in a halo of colorful light. It changes everything: Your TV looks bigger and you will enjoy your favorite shows, movies, and games more.

Ultra Clear Picture

Whatever you watch, this Ambilight 4K LED TV offers you bright, ultra-sharp images with vivid colors. The TV is compatible with all major HDR formats. Thus, you will see more details, even in dark and bright areas, when streaming HDR content.

Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos

With built-in Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, your movies, shows, and games have incredible picture and sound. See the picture as the director intended and forget about disappointing, dark scenes that are hard to see! Hear every word clearly. Enjoy sound effects as if they are happening around you.

Philips Smart TV

Everything happens quickly with our new smart TV. Do you like a series? You can open it directly from the home screen. If you're looking for something new, you can browse categories like action or drama and see recommendations from top streaming services – all in one place.

Smart Voice Control

You have various voice assistants at your disposal! Talk to Alexa-enabled devices through your Philips TV to listen to music, watch the news, check the weather, control smart home devices, and much more. Using Alexa on the 8100 series is simple and hands-free. Just ask, and Alexa will respond immediately. If you are watching TV at that moment, the TV volume will lower so that the TV's built-in microphone can clearly pick up your voice. Alternatively, you can control your TV through Google smart speakers.

Eco-friendly packaging

The almost bezel-less screen of this Ambilight TV fits any interior space. The slim, dark gray stand is the ideal height for placing a sound bar. Our packaging uses FSC-certified recycled cardboard, and our printed materials use recycled paper.

Ideal for Gaming

HDMI 2.1 allows you to get the most out of your console, with fast gameplay and smooth graphics. The device also supports VRR, while the low input lag setting is automatically activated when you turn on your console. Whatever you play, Ambilight's game mode makes the thrills even greater.

    This particular model is expensive (because it is 2 years old) but I hope PHILIPS continues to release models with AMBILIGHT (which gives a slightly different "atmosphere" when watching or playing on the TV...! ! !

    This review is about the size: 65 "

    For the money, it is not worth it at all. Personally, only the ambilight is worth it. It doesn't have Spotify, the settings sometimes get lost and you have to make the right adjustments for it to work properly. Sometimes when I turned it on or off at first, it would just freeze and I had to unplug it. I've had it for a few months; if it develops any serious issues, I will come back

    Picture, sound, design are fine for its price. Otherwise, Philips is terrible in functionality. Slow and cumbersome.

    This review is about the size: 43 "

    The purchase of this specific television was truly the best purchase of at least the past year. The picture quality is incredibly good and the backlighting, not only gives the illusion of a larger screen, but also relaxes the eyes, making it very enjoyable to watch a long program. The choice of inches was made due to limited space, however, if it allowed spatially, I would have chosen a larger one for even better results. The build quality is amazing, as it is a sturdy construction and even the legs are metallic. The sound is not bad, it could just be much better. It was worth every penny and more!

    Perhaps the best for gaming at the 400 euros I bought it with the quality of Philips. Ambilight is everything. It lacks in the operating system, but for someone who has an android box, it's fine.
