The percentage of the approximate area, taken by the active part of the screen, to the total front area. This time there's a 3.1.2ch Dolby Atmos soundbar strapped onto the stand which makes for a very tidy flagship OLED TV solution indeed. It comes in 48in, 55in and 65in sizes and the satisfaction that each time the soundbar has been tuned to make sure that the audio sounds as if it's coming from the centre of the screen.

What’s perhaps most impressive is the Perfect Natural Reality setting, Philips intelligent contrast algorithm that transforms standard dynamic range content so as to make it appear like near-native high dynamic range content. It works remarkably well, boosting sun-kissed scenes and detail in darker areas without washing out an image or adding any distorted halo effects that similar processes can introduce. 4K/HDR Performance Other than the underlying panel technology, Philips' new MiniLED models seem to match their OLED siblings, so it will be fascinating to see which TVs deliver the best overall performance when we test them later in the year. HDMI 2.1 and gaming features On the HDR front, the OLED806 has pretty much the full house, with HDR10, HLG, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision all supported. HDR10+ Adaptive is on board, too, allowing the TV to automatically adjust HDR10+ content to ambient lighting conditions, and while Dolby Vision IQ isn’t officially supported, Philips says the combination of standard Dolby Vision and its AI-powered light sensor effectively does the same thing. The 43- to 65-inch models get a T-bar stand for support, with the sizes up to 58-inches getting swivel action. The biggest models in the range switch to feet at either side that can adjusted to narrow or wide configurations. A strong wireless connection is just as important for streaming content and the TV takes advantage of the industry-leading Wi-Fi 802.11ac, which has a theoretical maximum speed of more than 1,300 Mbps – a LOT more than home Wi-Fi networks can achieve, but important to note nonetheless. It’s the first Wi-Fi standard developed that can achieve gigabit speeds, so think of it like the Bugatti of Wi-Fi. Bluetooth 5.0 is included as well.While it doesn't offer the self-emitting pixels of OLEDor Micro LED panels, it should help LCD televisions continue to compete in the TV space, for those without the cash or desire for more premium technologies. You'll find Mini LED tech in both LG's new QNEDrange and the higher-end new Samsung TVscoming out this year too. For those with more mid-spec budgets or tastes, though, there will still be a host of more traditional LCDs to consider. Android App offerings vary per country.

And in the meantime, the unusual combination of Android TV and Freeview Play makes the OLED806 less of an exercise in frustration than it otherwise would have been. The maximum number of colors, which the display is able to reproduce, depends on the type of the panel in use and color enhancing technologies like FRC.

They provide 18-, 24-, and 30-bit color, respectively. Information about the maximum horizontal viewing angle, within which the image on the screen is of acceptable quality. The OLED856/806 also comes with a version of Philips’ anti-burn in technology that detects static logos and reduces the light output to avoid burn in. Where the OLED856 differs from the 806 is its T-bar stand, which will give it a higher profile in a room.

As with the 986, it still comes with all the features and modes that Philips can muster this year. That includes HDMI 2.1 ports, HDR10+ Adaptive, four-sided Amblight and the all-new Philips Home Cinema picture preset.We’re yet to try out any of these 2021 sets in person, but we will be sure to update this guide when we’ve had the chance to review key Philips TVs from this year’s range. Elsewhere, the connections are more prosaic. You’ve got four HDMI ports (including HDMI ARC), and they’re all HDR-ready with HDCP 2.2 support. You won’t get the latest HDMI 2.1 standard, and gamers looking to take advantage of the PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles’ variable refresh rate features will be missing out when they arrive – but it shouldn’t be a huge issue for most. The OLED856 has a more advanced version of the P5 AI Engine, now onto its 5th incarnation. The new processor has a Film Detection mode for identifying movie content, and boosts its HDR support with the inclusion of the HDR10+ Adaptive format, optimising brightness levels of HDR10+ content in sync with room levels so the viewer can catch more detail and see the impact of HDR at its best. Like many of the best OLED TVs on the market today, the Philips Ambilight 65OLED706 OLED is a great gaming television that offers 4K@120hz gaming with an automatic variable refresh rate. Of course, if you’re a competitive gamer we only recommend playing on a gaming monitor (typically less than 1ms) as the input delay on most OLED televisions is more than 10ms.
