Verdict:

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.

If you are looking for a specific reason to buy the Philips PUS7000, it is essentially just the price. This model is meant to be primarily inexpensive, 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 switch to 4K without emptying their wallet. Interestingly, even though this is a "budget 60 Hz" model, Philip...

Ambilight because that's where we have to start, it's the biggest reason to buy the PUS8500. The three-sided backlighting of the TV looks great, especially in the evening. It creates an atmosphere, masks the imperfections of contrast, and makes the viewing experience simply more enjoyable. Even if the black levels aren't perfect, the native VA panel's high contrast is just fine. On top of that, th...
