Beautiful image thanks to OLED, but also disturbing

  • Beautiful image
  • Refresh image

We have been used to Philips with Ambilight for over 20 years, and we have always found this to be an added value when watching TV. This OLED provides a very nice image and viewer experience, but what really bothers us is that every 4 minutes the image freezes for half a second. He also asks to refresh the image very often (too often in our opinion), which means that you cannot watch TV for 10 minutes, something that is not very nice if you are just watching an exciting series. You can ignore it by clicking the 'cancel' button, but a little later you will be asked again. I understand that this has to do with the OLED screen, but we find it very disturbing to have to watch TV like this.

A top TV for both gaming and films/series.

  • Support for necessary game functions (VRR, ALLM, Gaming Mode)
  • Nice image quality (4K becomes even better with an OLED)
  • Works well with Phillips soundbar
  • E-Arc connection instructions for soundbar are not always clear

This TV is everything I needed. The OLED screen ensures that the colors pop and it is simply beautiful to look at. Before this I also had a Phillips (The One from 2022) and you really notice a huge difference with LCD screens. The functionalities are endless for both films/series and gaming and even better than I imagined. You can adjust a lot of things, although the factory settings are also very good. It is advisable to use a soundbar, because the sound from the screen sounds a bit tinny. The Ambilight function is not a must for me, but it is a nice addition and provides nice lighting. You can also set this up in many different ways. Connection to a soundbar did not work completely, but after reading a number of videos/explanations from coolblue it worked out fine. (bringing a 4k 120hz cable is a must for this) All in all a great experience for me, the delivery was also nothing to complain about. Very happy with the good protective layer that the TV had upon arrival. My gaming and home cinema setup is now complete.

Nice design and good quality!

  • GoogleTV
  • CI+ Ziggo proof (with module version 1.3)
  • Easy to set up

Beautiful design with Ambilight for more experience. Easy to set up and connect to existing soundbars, etc. The built-in Google TV and therefore Google Chrome is also very easy. CI+ proof with the module with version 1.3. According to Ziggo itself, it says no, but don't be fooled.
