Philips OLED 807 review 2024: great 4K OLED TV

Philips has been on a roll for years with its best OLED TVs. Its 8 Series models, in particular, have won the hearts and minds of both reviewers and customers thanks to their great style, great picture quality, and great price.

With this in mind, it’s safe to say that we’re pretty excited about the OLED807, the next model in this line from Philips. Even more so because this could be a big step up from its already great predecessor, the OLED806. For example, it has brand new OLED hardware and an updated version of Philips’ reliable but difficult P5 processing engine.

Philips OLED 807 review: Design and usability

Most of the other OLED TVs on the market look like the Philips 807. It has an ultra-thin metal bezel and a panel that is only a few millimeters deep at the top. The screen gets wider at the bottom, where the electronics, speakers, and connections are. Since this is a Philips TV, this deeper back part also has LEDs for the Ambilight system. You can buy this tvs from its official website

Philips OLED 807: Image quality

The Philips 807 features an OLED display of the newest EX variety, which is said to be brighter by as much as 30 percent when compared to previous generations. The brand’s own picture processing, however, is where it really shines because it uses third-party OLED screens. The latest P5 perfect picture engine with artificial intelligence-enhanced image processing is featured in the 807.

This kind of imaging prowess can be intimidating at first, what with all the options available to adjust the picture quality to your liking, but the deep-learning AI system helps to minimize noise while enhancing deinterlacing and upscaling.

Philips OLED 807: Sound quality

Detail is especially noticeable, thanks to a pleasingly wide and nimble mid-range and a lot of power (70W) from a five-speaker system. This makes soundtracks sound busy and interesting even when the volume is low. It also helps create a big and well-made sound stage when the volume is turned up.

Voices are always clear, realistic, and in the right place. Trebles don’t get thin or harsh until you turn the volume way up, and there’s enough bass to give action scenes a good sense of space and weight.

Philips OLED 807: Gaming

Along with its advanced video features, the OLED807 has an amazing set of gaming features. Two of the TV’s four HDMI ports can handle 4K at 120Hz, switching between low-latency modes automatically, and different refresh rates. This second choice is also available for AMD FreeSync Premium and Nvidia G-Sync VRR.

Price and availability

The price of the Philips 807 has gone down recently, so you can get a great deal on it no matter what size screen you choose. The 48-inch model costs £1,199, the 55-inch model that we looked at here costs £1,299, the 65-inch model costs £1,899, and the 77-inch model costs £3,499.

Final Words

Even though it takes a little more work than it should to get the OLED807 to work as well as it can, that work is well worth it. Its performance is right up there with the best in its class, and it even beats them in some ways, like punch, sharpness, and shadow detail. However, it costs a lot less than the best in its class, and it’s likely to stay that way for the rest of its life.
