When we first clapped eyes on Philips AmbiLux, back in 2014, we thought the engineers responsible had lost the plot. Sure, we've always had a soft spot for Philips Ambilight, the LED edging that casts puddles of coloured light onto surrounding walls, but...
When it comes to sheer audio visual audacity, this mash-up of 4K UHD TV with blended projection technology takes some beating; you'll need a specific type of room to make the most of it, but once installed heads will turn; 4K image quality is good, with e...
Unsurprisingly, AmbiLux doesn't suit all content; tends to dwarf intense dramas and can distract when gaming; the Android Smart platform is also something of a Marmite connected experience, our sample was unrepentantly buggy; HDR support lacks - is promis...
Overall, there's much to like about AmbiLux. From a hardcore AV point of view, there are better ways to spend £4,000 if you want a leading 4K UHD TV, but that's not exactly the point here. This TV is a lifestyle proposition; a showman and focus poin...

It's expensive, Cheaper rivals offer better picture quality, Ambilux requires precise positioning...
So should you dig deep and get youself this TV? It's a tricky question to answer. On one hand, if you've got four grand to spend on a telly, there are others out there with better picture-handling abilities. To be clear, the Philips is by no means poor in...

Ambilight has become a familiar sight on Philips televisions, and the manufacturer introduced a new upgraded version of its system at IFA last year. No more LEDs, but true pico-projectors, now show the image shown on the television on the wall behind it...
We're already looking forward to reading the comments on this article, because Ambilux will certainly divide opinions. After testing and trying out this TV for a day, we experienced it as a nice addition, as long as it's used properly and with the right...

It takes a lot for a TV's design to stand out these days. No longer is it a distinct advantage to put out a super-slim unit with a thinner-than-ever bezel and a shiny stand, because everyone is doing it. However, we can always pick a Philips out of a line...
Bright and sharp picture, Vibrant and dynamic colour palette, Decent sound quality, Easy to use, Ambilux feature is immersive and fun...

No doubt about it, the Philips PUS8901 is a sight to behold. We've lovingly dubbed it ‘the rave TV' a moniker that's likely to stick. Ambilux is an insane, eye-melting feature that, once you're accustomed to it, may prove indispensible. As for the rest o...

It's difficult to differentiate in the world of TVs but Philips has done a great job here with the follow-up to Ambilight LED technology. We think the use of nine projectors on the back makes for an even more immersive experience that we can't wait to get...

The 65PUS8901’s 4K picture – the proper one produced by its actual screen, not by the rear projectors – looks seriously promising thanks to a combination of brightness, bold colour saturations, extreme sharpness and potentially strong...

The 65in 65PUS8901 is a 4K set armed with Android TV smart functionality and almost every one of Philips' picture quality enhancements (the exception being HDR, which is reserved for the flagship 9000 series). However, the real selling point is the nine t...
