The idea behind The One series has remained practically unchanged for years, and with the Philips PQS9001 this is both an advantage and its biggest weakness. Once again, we get a versatile mid-range TV whose main distinguishing feature is Ambilight. The lighting that follows what is happening on the screen can completely change the atmosphere of an evening movie session, and for many people it wil...

If you're looking for a specific reason to buy the Philips PUS7000, the price is pretty much it. This model is primarily meant to be cheap, and it fulfills that role perfectly. It could be a decent choice for someone who is still using an old Full HD screen and wants to finally upgrade to 4K without emptying the wallet. Interestingly, even though this is a "budget 60 Hz" model, Philips hasn't forg...

Ambilight because that's exactly where we need to start, it's the biggest reason to buy the PUS8500. The three-sided backlighting on the TV looks fantastic, especially in the evening. It creates atmosphere, masks contrast imperfections, and makes viewing simply more enjoyable. Even if the black isn’t perfect here, at high contrast the native VA panel is just good. On top of that, there’s really de...
