My old Philips TV died last week and I'm looking for this model vs the oled 718 (708 in some countys). Can't decide 😵‍💫

[NenoMaestro]

Good TV.. but pity doesn't have google play store, or any store.. 😕 if they would implement that with some update, this tv would be best buy..

[RAIKUU]

If you are thinking about buying this, the only thing you need to look at is at 7:20. The backlight bleeding is insufferable on every individual of this TV. It's not even a lottery, it's a fact.

Привет из России. Хороший обзор. У меня 75pml9008, в связке с Panasonic ub900 изображение класс . Телевозор очень яркий, часто приходиться уровень серного делать на 43-47 . При таких параметрах уровня чёрного изображение становиться практически как на oled . Больше всего понравился режим calman, в этом режиме белый-белый и цвета из коробки настроены как мне надо было. У меня регион стоит «Финляндия «, но приложения Apple TV почему то нет. У вас в настройках регион США?

How does it compare to the One/PUS8808? They're the same price now here in the Netherlands at the moment

[maxpain]

My Philips 9008 has major issues with black borders in movies (edge bleeeding). Does your TV also has this problem????

[OlderRockRocks]

Who the fuck Is telling you that Ambilight is disco like???

Mostly from people that don't own an Ambilight TV. I have a 806 OLED and once Ambilight always Ambilight

[roberthexter]

Nah I have to do the same power cycle and I don't have a sound bar as I have the version with the b&w bar built in.
I love this TVs image quality the builtin B&W sound with sub is great but man did they mess up with the whole os and this weird set of bugs.
It's very annoying.

Is there light leakage on the panel? How well does local dimming work?

did you turn off ambilight when using xbox?
