Philips 55PUS7956 55 "

An important piece of interior

Ambilight is already a traditional feature of many Philips TVs. She is also present here. Its LEDs are located on the top and sides of the case, and their colour changes according to what is currently happening on the screen. Several Ambilight modes are available at once, including gaming and lounge, and a separate button on the remote control is provided to switch between them.

Other external features of the Philips 55PUS7956 include a white body and thin bezels around the 55-inch screen.

High-quality HDR picture

The TV is equipped with a 60-Hz matrix with a resolution of 3840 by 2160 pixels. The viewer has the right to expect a clear image (even if the original content is not in 4K) and a very smooth video sequence. Traditionally, Philips TVs have been successfully factory calibrated with accurate colour reproduction: objects on the screen look natural and believable, because they rely on fairly calm tones.

Another feature of the model is “omnivorous” in terms of HDR formats. Without any problems, it recognizes the most popular and popular ones, including HDR10 + and Dolby Vision. Therefore, a more juicy and realistic picture awaits the viewer when playing the corresponding content.

Gaming and "smart" potential

The Android TV 10 platform turns the Philips 55PUS7956 into a complete entertainment centre. The user initially has access to such popular services as YouTube, Netflix, a convenient browser. And almost everything that is missing can be installed from the app store. Using the Chromecast function, it will be possible to broadcast content to TV from mobile devices, and Google Assistant will allow you to interact with the model by voice. However there is no microphone in the remote control, so you will need a smartphone as an intermediary.

Especially for gamers, a low input lag is claimed, and the corresponding mode is turned on automatically when you start the game on a PC or console. Other features worth highlighting are 20-watt speakers with Dolby Atmos sound, an abundance of wired interfaces, including 4 HDMI, 2 USB, a mini-jack and a LAN port. The latter, by the way, will be the preferred option for connecting to the Internet, because the Wi-Fi 4 module does not guarantee sufficient bandwidth for streaming video in Ultra HD.

Philips 55PUS7956 is not only a modern TV with a good image, but also an interior decoration.
