Philips: New 4K OLED TVs unveiled for 2021
Philips TP-Vision brand will introduce new televisions featuring OLED displays. The OLED806 (48, 55, 65, and 77-inch models) and OLED856 (55- and 65-inch models) series have a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels (4K), a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz, and the fifth generation of artificial intelligence technology P5.
With the latter, users may now optimize SD and HDR content based on the ambient light. Along with Dolby Vision and HDR10 +, the new HDR10 + Adaptive dynamic HDR format is now available.
Additionally, the improvements include current anti-burn-in methods for OLED displays, a four-sided Ambilight for dynamic lighting effects, and HDMI -2.1 capabilities such as ALLM ("Auto Low Latency Mode"), eARC, and VRR ("Variable Refresh Rate"). Additionally, FreeSync Premium Pro is involved, which can help minimize tearing in games that use active HDR mode. Meanwhile, Android TV version 10 serves as the operating system, and few apps are absent.
A 50-watt 2.1 sound system with a "rear-facing triple-ring bass driver and four supporting passive radiators" offers sufficient sound, as well as compatibility for Dolby Atmos and DTS Play-Fi. Additionally, a quality remote control with lighted buttons is included in the scope of delivery. If desired, Alexa or Google Assistant may be used to operate the television sets. The primary distinction between the new Philips series is the stand idea. The OLED806 versions include two two-tone metal rod feet, whereas the OLED856 models use a dark chrome center swiveling stand.
The new items will be available in the second quarter of 2021. The selling price has not been announced yet.

I'd stay away from Philips - based on what I've read their customer support is horrible when it comes to burn-in; they just blame the user, while LG replaces the panel even after the warranty has run out.

The fact burn in is a problem in 2021 tells me we should just avoid oled completely. If no one buys it, the next thing will come along and replace it. Micro/mini led?

I hope I do not need to visit em. 2 years I've had their OLED no burn-in so far.

Not very good connections, and, pretty much a face lift from last year on the style and material used, but the underlying chipset remains the same.
Pass.
It is interesting that there has been a minor teeny weeny shift away from Mini-LED panels, and a robust push for some to even reproduce OLED tv's, like Samsung moving back to OLED...which I found to be really interesting. Samsung not using Quantum dot tech for next year?
