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.
