We’re continuing our TV technology series and following on with a look into another one of the fantastic brands we stock here at Electronic World. Today we’re discussing Philips to see how their TV technology highlights what a fantastic brand they are and why they could be your next TV brand of choice.

Who is Philips?

Philips is an award-winning technology company founded in Holland in 1891 by father-and-son duo Frederick and Gerard Philips. They began by manufacturing light bulbs, and it wasn’t until 1949 that they started selling televisions. From there, the company boomed, and they’re now one of the largest technology companies in the world. We’re fortunate enough to stock Philips TVs here at Electronic World and because our stocklist is comprised exclusively of graded TVs, you’re guaranteed a quality Philips TV at a staggeringly low price.

Their TV technology is truly outstanding. Their Ambilight TVs highlight the brand’s history in terms of lighting and is a sought-after feature for many tech-lovers due to its futuristic feel. Let’s take a look at the technology they have on offer and find out if Philips should be the brand of your next unit.

Ambilight

According to the brand themselves, Philip’s Ambilight technology “bathes your room in warm, immersive light”. This incredible feature uses intelligent LEDs positioned behind the edges of your TV to cast the colours displayed on-screen on your wall, enhancing your TV-watching experience. Whilst this isn’t essential for viewing, once you’ve experienced Ambilight, there really is no going back and you’ll wonder how you ever coped without it.

This smart technology is compatible with a variety of watching habits, including, but not limited to, movies, sports, gaming, and music. This means that whatever is on your screen, you have the option to immerse yourself even further and really feel like you’re right there on the pitch or in the midst of a zombie apocalypse.

Additionally, even when the TV screen is off, the choice is there to keep Ambilight on – creating a mood for any occasion and lighting your room up beautifully.

Dolby Vision

If you’re not already aware of Dolby Vision, then you’re missing out! This incredible technology works to enhance your viewing experience by using dynamic metadata. It carries scene-by-scene instructions to adjust the brightness, contrast, and colour performance of whatever is on-screen in order to provide the most optimised image at all times. Dolby Vision comes as standard with some of our Philips TVs, meaning no extra hardware or software updates are required.

Available on some of Philips’ 4K and OLED models, Dolby Vision is a must for those who want the best picture. Get your hands on a 4K Philips TV from Electronic World to appreciate the technology at up to 75% off the recommended retail price!

Film Maker Mode

Motion smoothing has been a pet peeve of many viewers for a number of years. While it sets out to smooth the picture and create a more optimised image, it actually creates more problems than it solves most of the time. It was designed to add more frames between each of the existing frames to give a smooth transition between movements in order to aid sports viewing and fast action. However, it creates an artificial look that appears more like a soap opera than a sports event.

This is where Film Maker Mode comes in. Backed by many great directors, it removes post-processing and displays the movies as the producers intended them. Film Maker Mode is now available on many of Philip’s OLED TVs, making this a desired piece of tech for film fanatics everywhere.
