About this deal

Multi-format HDR support, including Dolby Vision and HDR10+ for a stunning picture from all sources This need to change the default motion processing mode brings us to the fact that while the OLED807 is better out of the box than its predecessor, you should still get involved with its intimidatingly convoluted picture set up menus if you want to make sure you get the absolute best picture results. As well as the motion adjustments, all noise reduction should be turned off for the vast majority of native 4K and premium quality HD sources, for instance. Colour performance is equally impressive, with the 807 hitting 100% of the DCI-P3 colour space. This means you’re getting the full benefit of HDR’s wider colour gamut, and a saturated film such as The Greatest Showman really pops. Crucially, this colour gamut isn’t just wide but also very accurate, with all the colours hitting their saturation targets precisely. The OLED807 retains Philips’ long-running reputation for sharpness, too. Its pictures look emphatically 4K with the set’s Ultra Resolution feature in play – and this feature now seems to cause no significant unwanted side effects, so we see no reason not to use it (we recommended avoiding it in the past). The OLED807’s extra brightness also brings out more shadow detail in dark areas than we got with the OLED806, and HD sources are upscaled with more sharpness and detail than you get from most rivals. Nothing beats the big screen thrill of IMAX and now, thanks to IMAX enhanced, you can enjoy the power of IMAX on your TV, too. Used with IMAX certified 4K HDR content, IMAX Enhanced uses their proprietary digital remastering technology (DMR) to deliver ultra-vivid images.

The 55OLED907’s potent picture mix is joined by a promising audio set -up. Running along the full width of the TV’s bottom edge is a felt-covered speaker enclosure that contains forward-facing drivers delivering the business end of an 80W, 3.1-channel sound system, supported by a trio of large low frequency drivers on the TV’s rear. As mentioned earlier, this speaker system has been designed in conjunction with Bowers & Wilkins – a collaboration that’s yielded some outstanding audio results on previous Philips TVs. Tech fans expect faster, smarter gadgets every year so it's no surprise that Philips has treated its latest TVs to a new processing chip, the 6th Gen P5 AI.If it’s out-of-the-box performance you’re after, the OLED807 may not be the TV for you, but if you’re prepared to put the hard yards in – especially when motion-control and noise-reduction are concerned – then the rewards can be significant.

Being able to deliver more native brightness means, too, that there’s a wider range of natural looking tones in the brightest parts of HDR images, as well as reducing the potential for clipping (lost shading) in peak light areas.

Gaming is supported by two HDMI 2.1 ports (in addition to two HDMI 2.0 ports), with support for 4K 120Hz and Variable Refresh Rate, plus Auto Low Latency Mode so it switches to its Game Mode when you fire up a console. The star of the show is the new EX panel, which adds an extra level of dynamism to OLED's customary strengths.” ’Home Cinema Choice’ – Best Buy. Size class of the display as declared by the manufacturer. Often this is the rounded value of the actual size of the diagonal in inches. Its picture quality, meanwhile, takes a relatively aggressive approach that will win it many fans in both crowded electronics stores and living rooms – yet it also carries modes able to give you a more accurate picture if that’s your bag. Even its sound is way more powerful than that of most rivals. The 8007 is Philips' entry-level Ambilight TV for 2022. It offers a 4K 60Hz LED panel, Pixel Precise Ultra HD processing and three-sided Ambilight.

The set also carries a Dolby Vision Game mode (though this only supports DV up to 60Hz, not 120Hz like LG's OLEDs), and provided you select its Monitor setting the OLED807 can deliver 4K 120Hz without suffering the half vertical resolution issue that has affected some premium Philips TVs. Pretty much the only other negatives we can point out are that the new Ambient modes tend to leave the picture too dark (so should be turned off), and that the overall excellent noise reduction system Philips deploys with most of its out of the box presets can smooth filmic grain away. This year, the company is going even further to bolster its gaming credentials with a new 'Game Bar' menu that allows gamers to tweak the picture whilst a game is in progress. The OLED807 even has presets for different genres of games (First-Person Shooter, Role-Playing Game, etc). Input lag for some models is said to be an exceptionally low 9ms. New 6th Gen P5 AI processor The new generation of the P5 processor extends its AI-based content classification feature with a new Auto Film mode, and there’s also a new Ambient Intelligence features that applies sophisticated machine learning techniques to adjusting various aspects of the picture in response to ambient light conditions. So with Ambilight out of the way, the 55OLED807 becomes a slightly more straightforward, like-for-like rival to all the price-comparable alternatives around. Mind you, its compatibility with every worthwhile HDR standard, including Dolby Vision and HDR10+, marks it out as the product of a company who puts the consumer, rather than industry politics, first.Featuring advanced Ambient Intelligence, the latest P5 processor monitors light levels in the room and adjusts the TV’s brightness, gamma and colour, in real time, to optimise the image. The processor also offers Eye Care, Dark Detail Optimisation and Colour Temperature Optimisation modes, for a bespoke viewing experience.

Most of Philips' 2022 OLED and MiniLED TVs feature a new and improved four-sided Ambilight system that promises "increased colour detail and accuracy for a totally immersive viewing experience". Max light output HDR (high dynamic range) while displaying a live scene and white square taking up 10% of the screen (measured in Nits)

Throughout, build quality is unarguable. Given the asking price, it’s no surprise to find a lot of plastic used in the 807’s construction, and in places it’s quite hard, ordinary-feeling plastic too. But everything is screwed together properly, nothing groans or creaks, and the way the stand has been chromed is flawless. For the money, it’s hard to know what else you can realistically expect.
