Review: Philips OLED805 | OLED Plus Ambilight Provide Amazing Images Philips OLED805

With its juicy contrast and colorful Ambilight light, the Philips OLED805 (65OLED805) provides a truly immersive picture experience.

Philips 65OLED805 delivers a colorful picture experience from the contrasting OLED screen, while bathing the surroundings in atmospheric Ambilight light. The remote control has also become much better.

The Philips monitor lacks support for the latest HDMI 2.1 features.

If you are looking for an OLED TV that stands out, the Philips OLED805 will be right up your alley. Here you get an Android TV with a sleek design, razor-sharp and contrast-rich picture quality and nice sound in one and the same package. At the same...

Philips OLED805 (65OLED805) review: One of the prettiest and most affordable OLED TVs in town

The Philips OLED805 delivers vibrant images at an excellent price in a spectacular design, but it's not ideal for next-gen gaming

Vibrant and detailed pictures ; Spectacular design and build quality ; Good value for what’s on offer

No VRR or 4K at 120Hz gaming support ; No eARC audio passthrough ; Small chance of permanent image retention (as with all OLED TVs)

The Philips OLED805 retains the boldness and flair we’ve come to associate with Philips’ OLED picture quality. Its Ambilight-enhanced design and price at 65 inches are supremely impressive too. Next-gen gamers may rue the lack of support for variable...

Philips 65OLED805 review

What Hi-Fi? Awards 2020 winner. The 65-inch version of Philips OLED805 TV is as excellent a performer as its smaller sibling

Superbly sharp and detailed ; Solid, weighty sound ; Ambilight

Lack of next-gen HDMI features ; Can be beaten for motion

Not only does it look and sound better than its rivals, it’s cheaper and has Ambilight, too

Hands on: Philips OLED 805 / OLED 855 review

Can AI processing raise the bar for Philips' 2020 OLED displays?

Wonderful picture Ambilight still a neat feature AI processing looks promising

No HDMI 2.1 No eARC

Philips’ confidence and assured performance in the OLED sector looks set to continue with 2020's Philips OLED 805 and OLED 855 models.

Philips OLED 805 review (early verdict): gorgeous colours with AI processing you can see

Philips' new 4K OLED TVs for 2020 make small changes, but the results looks fantastic so far

Strong images from AI processing ; Ambilight is still great ; Nice minimal design

No flagship Bowers & Wilkins audio ; No HDMI 2.1

Philips 55OLED805 4K OLED TV review

The 805 is the smartest Philips OLED flatscreen yet, says an awestruck Steve May Philips' new OLED805 may look at first glance like a numerical refresh of last year's 804 model, but there's far more to it than that.

Philips OLED 855 initial review: AI smarts join leading P5 processing

TP Vision isn't reinventing the wheel with its 2020 Philips OLED TVs. Instead, we're seeing evolution in the range this year, not revolution.

The Philips OLED 855 runs on an upgraded, 4th gen P5 picture engine that adds AI and deep machine learning this year to analyse each scene for nature, faces, motion and dark elements. This adjusts the picture accordingly and in real time. It's an...

Philips 65OLED805 HDR TV review

Is the Philips Ambilight OLED805 TV worth its premium price tag? We put it to the test to find out.

Excellent picture performance ; Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support ; Ambilight lounge lighting

No 4K 120fps HDMI support ; Poor input lag

This slick-looking thin screen has just about everything going for it. The design is stylish, it boasts sensational picture quality, and Ambilight lounge lighting is thrown in. It’s a difficult package to resist. That is unless you’re a gamer. The TV...
