Philips Ambilight 43PUS7304/12 TV 43 Inch LED Smart TV (4K UHD, P5 perfect Picture Engine, HDR 10+, Android TV, Google Assistant, Alexa Compatible) bright Silver (2019/2020 model) [Energy Class A]

Great TV, fantastic picture quality for ps4 and xbox 360, very crisp with all your standard customizable visual settings. I originally bought this model for the component input on the back, which later models don't have but I have to admit, while it's great to have the option of playing older consoles, they look awful in wide-screen on this.Sound was surprisingly decent but since the attached photo, I've set up a 40W sound system which is infinitely better.The ambilight is amazing and is truly fantastic in full effect at night, enhancing the immersion.The smart features are good though I feel I can't comment too much as this is the first smart TV I've had. It's nice to have all my favourite apps in one place but it's a shame there's no NowTV.The remote has a good voice command feature but I've had to press buttons a few times for the TV to register input, despite the light on the bottom acknowledging the input.Overall, very pleased with the TV and for the price of £600, I feel I've got more than my monies worth.

A smart TV that is actually smart. Since purchasing I've completely stopped using our much loved Apple TV apart from to cast our MBP/ios screen to the TV. The Netflix/Youtube/Prime interfaces are intuitive and clean, easy to use and the smart assistant even understands the different accents in our household (English/Brazilian).The picture quality is brilliant once tweaked from the standard settings; (PLEASE take time to look at forums for recommended picture settings before judging the picture quality as it is 100% clearer/more pleasant viewing once setting up from standard). You can quickly remedy ghosting/motion blur/bad colours that I first thought would be a deal breaker, we now have a clean, sharp and beautiful picture. The ability to stream 4K Netflix shows is night and day to our old HD Apple TV setup.It powers on and off quickly, has a good amount of connectivity, we use a few HDMI ports, nothing more - but you can name commonly used HDMI devices such as Playstation etc which is a nice touch.Only downside I'd say is the sound quality; after lots of tweaking it's acceptable but often we find ourselves straining to hear dialogue when watching movies while sound FX / music is a good level often speech is too quiet. It is of unremarkable audio quality, if you really care about built in audio and don't have a soundbar/sound system perhaps look elsewhere.Ambilight is brilliant. Tweakable depending on the colour wall behind the TV and we find comfort setting is adequate, while standard is so bright it sometimes gets overpowering once the novelty has worn off. It does make a difference to bring a scene alive and after a few days you forget it's there, until you turn it off and suddenly it feels a little flat in the room. It works nicely with our Philips Hue lights as well, not synced but adds another light source of colour for a movie night.For £400, I honestly don't think it can be beaten.

This TV is great - has a nice picture and is really well made. I upgraded from a 2017 version 55” 2 side ambilight. Most of the silver coloured plastic bits on that set are metal on this set.One major frustration moving to this set is the easy link (cec) implementation is better than on my previous set which actually means it works worse for my setup! If you enable cec on the tv, the receiver (mine is onkyo tx-rz740) and all your devices it works amazingly, all your cec enabled devices just appear as inputs in the inputs menu enabling you to switch to them - HOWEVER virgin V6 box doesn’t support cec, so I haven’t found a combination of settings that works and enables my receiver and tv to come on at the same time, control the volume from the virgin remote and allow me to change input to the V6 box. If I enable easylink (cec) on the tv then I can only change to cec enabled inputs - if I try and manually change the input on my receiver it just switches back to the cec input selected on the tv. So frustratingly with the best set I’ve had for cec support I’ve had to turn it off! If the V6 box had a cec function this would be a non issue and the tv isn’t at fault. Likewise if I didn’t have a receiver and lots of other inputs it probably would be less of an issue.If you’re a virgin V6 user AND have home cinema then it might also annoy you too!Also have the easylink turned on and trying to change input on my receiver made the sound weird as the tv and receiver would play sound and I wouldn’t be able to change the tv volume as that would change the receiver volume - but then also the receiver input would switch after 2 seconds so I wasn’t able to get that annoyed about the sound.
