Good 4K picture quality ; Extremely aggressive price ; Even upscaled pictures look sharp

Setup requires care ; Pictures look a touch "forced" with non-4K material ; Smart features are hit and miss

Reasonable detail in foreground ; Fine tracking motion ; Decent sound ; A good choice of apps

Lacks subtle detail ; Little movement in contrast settings ; Slow to change channels and enter TV guide

Though equipped with all you’d expect from a modern 4K TV set, Philips has failed to hit the spot with the 55PUT6400

Native 4K sources look good ; Good price for a large 4K TV ; Decent upscaling ; Attractive design

Processing can be clumsy ; Needs extensive setup work ; No 3D or Ambilight ; Overbearing Android TV interface

The 55PUT6400 is a striking debut for Philips' new TV range. It catches the eye with its price and size for a 4K UHD TV, and in many ways its pictures grab your attention too. In the end though a few foibles with the TV's video processing make us think...

Excellent value; mostly good picture quality, especially with native 4K content

Pictures can look a over-processed artificial; Android TV system is cumbersome

Overall, while the 55PUT6400 is a talented 55in TV for its money, no matter how much I tinkered with its pictures I still sometimes found them a bit artificial-looking – as if Philips’ processing either isn’t powerful enough to realise its ambitions or...

Overall, this 6 Series Philips 6 Series set is solid value. It’s a good advert for Android, and image quality is great. Despite the relatively small screen size, there are benefits to having 4K resolution on a 40-inch panel – but you really do need to...

The broadcast TV portion of the set is fine; you get a decent EPG, although there's no sign of Freeview Play or any time-shifting features, which leaves it slightly lagging behind the likes of Sony and Panasonic.

Decent native blacks ; Great backlight uniformity ; Good out-of-the-box performance ; Impressive upscaling ; Attractive price

Limited future-proofing ; CMS doesn't work ; Android TV still has issues

If you're on a budget or just fancy testing the Ultra HD 4K waters without committing too much money, then the Philips 50PUT6400 is definitely a good choice. It provides enough features and specifications to keep it relevant in a fast-changing world,...

Slow to respond to controls. Sometimes jams up and does not respond to controls - need to unplug and start again. Remote control layout poor

love the clear colours, the easy to use remote control and the sleek design

The sound quality is poor have to get past number 30 before there is any sound at all ?

It looks good.

Purchased a month ago and playing up already. Needs replacing.
