The Philips OLED761 is the cheapest OLED in the brand’s 2026 lineup. It is intended mainly to attract buyers with a lower price than the 8 and 9 series, but it also keeps something that makes many people consider buying a Philips in the first place: Ambilight. The backlight that illuminates the wall behind the screen has set this brand’s TVs apart for years, and for some buyers it is as important as the picture itself. The question remains, though, what compromises you have to accept when choosing the entry-level model. We examined whether the OLED761 is a good way to get a cheaper Ambilight-equipped OLED and what it offers beyond its signature glow.
PHILIPS OLED761 - Our verdict
7.7
Overall rating
The Philips OLED761 shows that the brand’s entry-level OLED can be a very solid choice for watching films. It performs best in the evening, when perfect blacks and striking HDR let you appreciate the strengths of the panel. After calibration, very accurate colours add to that, so it’s hard to fault the picture itself for normal viewing. It doesn’t always handle the brightest highlights as well in demanding HDR10 films, but Dolby Vision helps in those scenes. It’s a TV that can make a real impression when you watch with the lights off. A big part of that experience is Ambilight. If you like a backlight on the wall behind the screen, the OLED761 gives you a clear reason to consider Philips. You don’t have to pay extra for higher-end models to combine this feature with a good OLED picture. This model is also good for gaming: the 120 Hz panel and four HDMI 2.1 ports let you use it as a screen for films, a console or a PC. That’s important, because even the cheapest OLED in the lineup should be a versatile purchase, not a TV that’s only good for evening viewing. Before buying, it’s worth looking at two limitations. The first is viewing in a bright room. The OLED761 is a little dimmer than rivals using a similar panel, and the lack of a polariser in the OLED SE panel further reduces its performance in bright conditions. The second is Titan OS. The system runs more smoothly than in earlier versions, but it still offers a more limited selection of apps than the competition. Improved smoothness is welcome, but it won’t replace access to the services you use every day, so it’s best to check app availability before buying. We also disliked the remote. Although it’s backlit and has a full set of useful buttons, it requires precise aiming at the screen. Ultimately the Philips OLED761 makes most sense for people who mainly watch in the evenings and want Ambilight. In those conditions it can confidently compete with the Samsung S85H or the LG B6 in terms of picture, and the choice between them will come down more to price, the operating system and personal habits. Philips doesn’t have a clear advantage in every use case, but it shouldn’t be dismissed as a lesser alternative just because it opens the brand’s OLED range. At the right price it’s a good buy, provided the available apps meet your needs.

Philips OLED761 looks like the modern OLED TVs we’ve become used to. It has a very thin panel and narrow bezels, while at the back there is a thicker plastic housing that contains the electronics and connectors. Overall it looks neat and modern, though viewed from the front it’s hard to point to anything that clearly sets it apart from the competition. What does catch the eye are two narrow, splayed feet that raise the screen quite high above the cabinet. They give the TV somewhat unusual proportions and may not appeal to everyone, but the design has a practical purpose. There’s plenty of room under the screen for a soundbar, making it easier to position one in front of the TV without blocking the picture. The feet are also widely spaced, so it’s worth checking the width of your cabinet before buying. What most distinguishes the OLED761 is, of course, Ambilight. The LEDs on the back light the wall with colours matched to what’s happening on screen. Especially in the evening, the glow becomes a clear part of the viewing experience and gives a TV that looks rather ordinary by day some character.

In this category the Philips OLED761 earns the highest rating. The OLED panel used allows each pixel to be controlled independently, and where the image should be completely black it simply switches them off. Thanks to this, in all test scenes we achieved infinite contrast. When watching, this translates into deep blacks and a very clear separation of bright elements from a dark background. Even a small lamp or a star does not cause blooming of the surroundings from the screen backlight, which Mini LEDs still struggle with in demanding scenes. This is an advantage of the technology itself, so even Philips' cheapest OLED can match much more expensive models in this respect. In a dark room it is particularly obvious how much of a difference that precision makes. Black doesn't turn grey just because a bright object appears right next to it, and the television doesn't have to choose between dimming the light and preserving a dark background.
There are some reservations, however, about the way shades just above black are displayed. In film scenes the OLED761 can slightly brighten them, causing the darkest parts of the image to be a little brighter than they should be. This is also confirmed by the start of the luminance curve. That doesn't mean the panel can't show perfect black, because fully black elements remain switched off. The imperfection concerns the reproduction of the very darkest greys and, although it doesn't negate the excellent contrast, it can be noticed in some night-time shots.

Philips OLED761 uses the new-generation WOLED SE panels from LG Display, and in terms of HDR brightness it achieves results comparable to its closest rivals, the Samsung S85H and LG B6. Peak brightness is around 800 nits, which is a solid result for an entry-level OLED. Importantly, similar values also appear in films. In scenes with small lights on a dark background we measured about 700–780 nits, so a torch, a reflection or a lamp can noticeably shine. Combined with perfect black this produces a convincing HDR effect, especially during evening viewing. The panel’s capabilities, however, fall off as the bright portion of the image increases. When, instead of isolated lights, there is an extensive sunlit landscape, the TV can no longer maintain such high brightness. In the oil-rig scene we measured 289 nits, and with an even larger bright-area fill the result may approach roughly 200 nits. In practice this means a sun-drenched shot will look less dramatic than small lights in a night scene. Despite this limitation, HDR on the OLED761 deserves a positive assessment. It is not a TV that will light up the whole room with every bright scene, but it can clearly show the difference between ordinary footage and HDR material. It performs best where bright accents appear on a darker background, because then the high brightness of individual elements and deep black combine to deliver the strongest effect.
Colours
The Philips OLED761 also handles colours well, as its panel covers the vast majority of the DCI-P3 gamut, which contains most of the colours encountered in films and HDR TV series. As a result, in everyday viewing colours have appropriate saturation and the picture does not look washed out. Limitations only become apparent in more demanding material that uses shades beyond DCI-P3 and belonging to the wider BT.2020 gamut. In such shots the most intense reds and greens can look less impressive than on QD-OLED, SQD-Mini LED or RGB Mini LED screens. A separate issue is saturation retention at high brightness. The WOLED panel uses an additional white subpixel to help brighten the image, but this does not increase the brightness of the colours in the same way. Therefore very bright colours may appear slightly washed out, which is easiest to notice on vivid neon signs or colourful lighting effects. These are limitations visible mainly in specific, demanding scenes. For most films and TV shows watched day to day the OLED761 has sufficient capability to deliver well-saturated, attractive colours.

Scene from the movie “Pan” (about 2800 nits)
Scene from the movie “Billy Lynn” (about 1100 nits)
In the scene from the film "Billy Lynn", where brightness reaches around 1,100 nits, the Philips OLED761 renders the overall look of the image well. The soldier's face and the surroundings retain appropriate brightness, and the flares in the background clearly stand out from the rest of the frame. Apart from a slight brightening of the darkest tones, the TV does not overly alter the scene's character. However, in the brightest parts of the light effects some details begin to merge together, so not all detail is preserved. A greater challenge is the scene from the film "Pan", where brightness reaches around 2,800 nits. Such intense highlights need to be properly matched to the panel's capabilities to preserve both their intensity and the details visible within them. The OLED761 does not quite cope with this. Although most of the frame looks correct, in the area around the sun the bright tones merge, causing some of the sky's detail to be lost. In most shots, then, the Philips can produce a convincing HDR picture, but with the most demanding light effects it is clear that its image processing still has room for improvement.
HDR luminance chart:
In the scene with the horses you can clearly see what the OLED761 struggles with in HDR10. The snow blends into a white patch and the trees in the background almost disappear. When Dolby Vision is enabled, details of the ground and the outline of the forest reappear, making the landscape look much more natural. The additional information stored in this dynamic format helps the TV adjust the scene brightness to the panel’s capabilities, rather than lose details in the brightest areas. That’s good news, because Dolby Vision is commonly found in HDR films and series on streaming platforms. It’s not a feature you’ll use only for a few select productions. If a title is available in this format, it’s worth choosing, because the OLED761 then has a better chance of showing more challenging shots correctly. Not every scene will reveal as large a difference as the one with the horses, and for much of a viewing HDR10 may look fine. Here, however, it’s clear that Dolby Vision helps to make use of the screen’s capabilities where the TV itself doesn’t quite cope with bright details.
Static HDR10

Factory color reproduction
6.5/10
The OLED761’s factory Movie mode settings deliver a fairly pleasant picture, although the colours are not completely neutral. In SDR material there is primarily a lack of blue, and in parts of the range also some red, so whites and greys can take on a slightly yellow-green tint. You will notice it most easily on neutral surfaces, which look warmer than they should. The colours themselves are still quite good, and most of the samples we checked do not show large errors. So this is not a case where the colour cast completely changes the appearance of the film being watched. More attention is needed to the way brightness is handled in SDR. Over most of the range the television slightly darkens the image, which can make faces and elements of the surroundings appear heavier, and details in darker areas less readable. At the same time, tones just above black are brightened. These two characteristics can occur together: the deepest shadows become too noticeable, while the rest of the scene is a little too dark. In HDR there is also a shortage of blue, particularly in the brighter parts of the image. This gives whites a warm, yellowish tint, which can be visible on things like clouds or snow. Darker tones are set much better in terms of white balance, so the extent of this tint varies with scene brightness. Out of the box the OLED761 performs decently, but measurements show that, above all, white neutrality and the rendering of brightness still need refinement through calibration.
Color reproduction after calibration
9/10
After calibration, the Philips OLED761 performs very well. The white balance was set almost perfectly, so the previous colour cast disappears and faces, whites and greys look more natural. The improved gamma means the image is no longer unnecessarily darkened and it is easier to make out details in darker areas. Colours are reproduced with high precision, which, combined with deep blacks, delivers a very pleasant picture for watching films in the evening. It is clear that even Philips’s entry-level OLED has considerable potential that is worth exploiting by refining the settings. In HDR the brightness characteristic runs close to the reference across most of the range, so most scenes retain the correct appearance. There is a slight lifting of shades just above black and a tendency to render the very brightest parts a little too strongly. These are, however, observations relating to specific parts of the image. In the most demanding shots some bright details may still be missing, but the overall result after calibration is definitely successful. The OLED761 can produce a natural, well balanced picture that lets you focus on the film.
PHILIPS OLED761 - Smoothness of tonal transitions
7.4/10
Philips OLED761 handles tonal transitions quite well, although on bright gradients you can notice subtle banding between shades. They appear in most of the bright shots we checked, but are subtle enough that during normal viewing they shouldn't distract much from the film. In darker scenes the imperfections are most noticeable when the image fades to black and in the shot with the red water, where the colour transitions could be smoother. More than the gradation itself, however, the panel's uniformity can be distracting. In dark scenes this shows up as fairly distinct bands, causing uniform backgrounds to look less even than they should. This is a separate issue from the visible boundaries between shades, although during a viewing both phenomena can overlap. We've seen similar banding so far in every OLED we've tested with the new WOLED SE panel, so this isn't a fault unique to the OLED761. Their severity can, however, vary between units.
Image scaling and smoothness of tonal transitions
7.5/10
Smooth transition function
Image without overscan on the SD signal
The Philips OLED761 does a fairly good job of improving lower-quality material. Its Pentonic 800 processor effectively smooths visible transitions between tones that often appear in heavily compressed recordings. This is handled by the setting "Artefact reduction". When enabled, banding on a uniform background becomes less noticeable and, importantly, this is not achieved at the cost of noticeably blurring details. It's a feature worth using when the source material's quality leaves something to be desired. The upscaling itself has the characteristic Philips softness. Lower-resolution material looks quite gentle, and fine elements and contours lack a little sharpness. In the shot with the model this is visible in the hair and thin branches, which could be more clearly defined. A plus is the lack of overscan, that is, the cropping of the image edges. Even with a low-resolution signal the TV shows the entire frame.
PHILIPS OLED761 - Blur and motion smoothness
8.5/10
Maximum refresh rate of the panel: 120Hz
Film motion smoothing option: Yes
Blur reduction option: Yes
BFI function 60Hz: No
BFI function 120Hz: No
The Philips OLED761 performs very well in fast-moving scenes. Thanks to extremely fast pixel response, moving objects leave virtually no trailing smears, which will be appreciated by both sports viewers and gamers. The 120 Hz panel also helps maintain good motion clarity, as seen in the UFO test: edges remain clear whether an object moves against a bright or dark background. With a 60 Hz signal there is more blur, but this is mainly due to the way motion is displayed at the lower refresh rate, rather than a slow panel response.
When watching films you can use the "Motion Styles" settings, which include "Smoothness" and "Blur Reduction" sliders. They let you tailor the picture to your preferences, from preserving the characteristic cinematic motion to strongly smoothing it. A slight increase in smoothness is especially useful for slow camera moves, which can look choppy on a fast-reacting OLED. It does not have BFI, black frame insertion, to improve motion clarity, although even without it the OLED761 performs very well in this area.

Although the OLED761 is Philips' cheapest OLED this year, it's hard to spot any major cost-cutting in its gaming feature set. The TV supports gaming at 120 Hz in Full HD, 1440p and 4K, so it lets you make use of the high-frame-rate modes available on consoles. The fast OLED panel means objects don't leave trailing even during dynamic action. When a console doesn't maintain a steady frame rate, VRR operating from 40 to 120 Hz helps. The image won't tear during rapid camera pans, and frame-rate fluctuations are less noticeable.
Philips has also thought about convenience. When you start a game the TV can automatically switch to a low-latency mode, and the most important settings are available in the handy Game Bar. There you can check image parameters, turn on an on-screen crosshair or brighten shadows if it's hard to spot an opponent in a dark area. The Game Bar itself may not be the most flashy on the market, but it does the job. There's also support for Dolby Vision for gaming and properly functioning HGiG, which makes it easier to match the console's HDR settings to the screen's capabilities. In terms of features, the OLED761 therefore offers a great deal.
PHILIPS OLED761 - Input lag
9.4/10
The input lag of the OLED761 depends not only on the refresh rate but also on whether you’re playing in SDR or HDR. SDR performs best: we measured 14 ms at 60 Hz and just 5 ms at 120 Hz, in both Full HD and 4K. Those are excellent results that let you enjoy quick response to controller inputs even in fast-paced games.
With HDR enabled the lag increases to 31 ms at 60 Hz and 13 ms at 120 Hz. Dolby Vision at 60 Hz gives a similar result of 30 ms. You can still play comfortably, especially in less demanding titles, but it’s a shame that enabling HDR comes with this drawback.
| SDR | HDR | Dolby Vision |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p60: 14 ms | 2160p60: 31 ms | 2160p60 DV: 30 ms |
| 1080p120: 5 ms | 2160p120: 13 ms | |

PHILIPS OLED761 - Compatibility with PC
7.6/10
Chroma 444 (max. resolution and refresh rate): Yes
Font clarity: Good
Readability of dark text and shapes: Very Good
Input lag in PC mode (4K, max. refresh rate): 5ms
Matrix subpixel arrangement: RGWB
Max refresh rate: 120Hz
G-Sync: Yes
The Philips OLED761 performs well when connected to a computer. It correctly handles 4:4:4 chroma, so small text is legible and coloured letters remain sharp. When viewed up close, however, you can notice faint red fringes on the edges of characters. These result from the RGWB subpixel arrangement used in the WOLED panel, which standard font-smoothing methods are not suited to. When browsing the web this may not be an issue, but if the TV will be used mainly for working with text, it is worth taking this into account.
In games the OLED761 feels much better. The panel's fast response and support for G-Sync and FreeSync let you enjoy smooth motion without annoying blur or tearing. At 4K and 120 Hz in SDR we measured an input lag of just 5 ms, so control is very responsive. Bear in mind that input lag rises when HDR is enabled, as described earlier. The main limitation is the cap at 120 Hz refresh. The OLED761, like other models we tested with the WOLED SE panel, does not offer an extra 144 Hz mode or higher refresh rates at reduced resolution. For most people this will not be a serious problem, since 120 Hz already provides very good smoothness. Only gamers with powerful PCs aiming to extract the highest possible frame rates may feel slightly underwhelmed.
PHILIPS OLED761 - Viewing angles
7.5/10
Brightness drop at an angle of 45 degrees: 34%
Regarding OLED performance, the OLED761 looks very good. You can sit off to the side and still watch an image with deep blacks and well-saturated colours, without the pronounced degradation known from VA panels. It's one of OLED's advantages that is easy to appreciate when watching with others: you don't have to sit in the middle of the sofa for a film to look as it should. Only QD-OLED panels are better in this respect.
PHILIPS OLED761 - Daytime performance
4.5/10
Panel finish: Satin
Reflection suppression: Average
Black levels during daytime: Good
The Philips OLED761 is not the best choice for a very bright living room. Average SDR brightness is about 280 nits, so it performs slightly worse even than rivals using the same panel. In a strongly sunlit room the picture simply lacks the punch to remain clearly visible, especially when watching darker scenes. In such conditions drawing the curtains may be necessary.
Nor does the way the WOLED SE panel's satin finish handles direct reflections help. A window or lamp opposite the screen is quite clearly visible, and their reflections show characteristic doubling and coloured halos. On the plus side, black levels still look good in a lit room, but at low TV brightness the reflections themselves can be distracting. The OLED761 will therefore work best where you can cover the windows and ensure bright light does not reflect directly on the screen.

Titan OS
In the OLED761, rather than Google TV, we get Titan OS, which has been appearing more often on Philips TVs for several years. Over that time the system has clearly matured. It responds faster to commands, navigates menus more smoothly, and features that used to cause problems are finally beginning to work as they should. There is noticeable progress in everyday use, which is praise-worthy. It still does not match the level of refinement and capabilities of webOS or Tizen, and there is a considerable gap compared with the freedom and app selection offered by Google TV, but Titan OS is definitely heading in the right direction.
Practical features and ports
When watching standard broadcast TV you get the basic conveniences, including teletext and a remote with a numeric keypad. The buttons are backlit, which is very useful in the evening, but it is hard to understand why Philips stubbornly sticks with infrared control. Having to point the remote at the TV can be simply inconvenient (the only function that works wirelessly is voice control). There is no USB recording or picture in picture. The port selection, however, deserves praise: all four HDMI inputs support the 2.1 48Gbps standard, so after connecting a soundbar via eARC there are still three ports available to make full use of consoles and a PC. You do not need to worry about which device to connect at the cost of high refresh rates. There is even an analogue mini‑jack output, increasingly rare in new TVs but still useful for wired headphones or older audio equipment.
Ambilight
The most distinctive extra is, of course, Ambilight, for which Philips gets extra points from us. Lighting the wall with colours from the screen can add a lot of atmosphere to films and games, but it is also handy for relaxed evening viewing. The gentle glow means the bright screen is not the only light source in a completely dark room, which can improve viewing comfort. It is worth setting its intensity to suit the room instead of immediately turning it to maximum. For people who enjoy that style of viewing, Ambilight can be one of the strongest arguments for choosing the OLED761.

The USB player in the Philips OLED761 behaves rather oddly, and this is where you can see that Titan OS still needs refinement. Tested videos and music files played back correctly, but photos caused the most problems. Interestingly, it is not only a lack of support for certain formats but also the resolution of the images. The TV opened photos at 16 and 32 Mpix, yet failed to handle some smaller ones, such as 10 and 12 Mpix. So it is hard to point to a simple rule for preparing photographs to ensure they will all be displayed. If you plan to display holiday photos on a large screen, it is worth checking the files beforehand or using screen mirroring.

The Philips OLED761 sounds quite good for a slim TV. Its midrange is the strongest, making dialogue clear and easy to follow. For watching TV series, news or regular programmes, the built-in speakers are more than adequate. However, it lacks deeper bass, which is most noticeable in music and action films. Explosions pack less punch, and music lacks a fuller sound. So if you want a more cinematic audio experience, a soundbar with a separate subwoofer will be a noticeable addition to the setup. Especially as the OLED761 handles spatial audio formats like Dolby Atmos and DTS:X without any problems.
