Philips 77OLED807-12 77 Inch Smart 4K Ultra HD HDR OLED TV

Product Information

Enhanced Ambient intelligence adjusts brightness, gamma and colour in real time to suit changing ambient lighting conditions. Dialogue is well positioned and always clear without sounding short of context, and the impressive 70W of power Philips has placed at the OLED807’s disposal helps the set project its sound far beyond the physical boundaries of its bodywork, creating a surprisingly large and immersive soundstage. Alternatively, you might have a specific size of TV in mind and an appetite for the best picture quality available. In that case, you need to prioritise performance and, if desired, next-gen features (more on which below).

Android TV is also absent. Instead, this model uses the 'Saphi' operating system often found on Philips' more affordable European TVs. This could limit the number of streaming apps, but it's too early to say for sure. Smart picture modes now also contain a new option with Crystal Clear mode replacing the previous Vivid mode by offering the same ultra-crisp images and rich colours and but with a better more natural balance between sharpness, colour and contrast. The Philips OLED807 not only improves markedly on the already good picture quality of its predecessor, but also features presets that are much more effective right out of the box, making it much easier to use. Though that doesn’t mean you won’t still have to spend at least a little time delving into its intimidatingly huge setup menus. Ambilight is a proprietary Philips technology that extends the onscreen action onto the wall around the TV in the form of coloured light. Not only does it look fabulous, it increases perceived contrast and draws the eye more effectively into the action. If you can't tell, we're big fans.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. It's effectively the same as you get on the best Samsung TVs and best LG TVs, and you'll get no complaints about that from me. This kind of option is exactly what Philips needs to finally break into our list of the best gaming TVs.

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. Colours were also well-handled throughout our tests. The only minor issue our reviewers noticed throughout testing was a very gentle boost to the greens of the fields and hills of Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, streamed in 4K HDR10 via the Apple TV app, which makes the picture 'just a smidge less authentic' than the results we got on the Sony A95K we ran it against. The A95L is the successor to the A95K, arguably the best TVof last year if you don't take price into account. One of the two first QD-OLEDTVs launched, it trumped its Samsung S95Brival by deploying its brightness-boosting, vibrancy-adding Quantum Dots in a more considered and authentic fashion – and by offering a far superior sound system to boot. The Philips OLED807 has a similar minimalist design to most of the other OLED TVs on the market, with an ultra-thin metal bezel and a panel that’s millimetres deep at the top, before widening out further down where the electronics, speakers and connections are housed. Since this is a Philips TV, this deeper rear section also includes LEDs for the Ambilight system – more on that later.For many AV fans, the simple fact that the OLED807 is an OLED TV will be an immediate attraction. After all, the way each pixel in an OLED screen can make its own light, rather than having to share an external light with its neighbours as happens with LCD TVs, delivers peerless local contrast perfectly suited to a well-mastered movie. There's a huge amount to consider when choosing a new OLED TV, but the biggest things are the money and space that you have available.
