Full details
The Philips 8500 Series 43-inch 4K QLED Smart TV is designed for users who want an immersive, high-quality home cinema experience in a compact form factor. Its standout feature is the three-sided Ambilight technology, which synchronizes ambient lighting with on-screen action to expand your field of vision. While it delivers excellent color accuracy and gaming performance, the 60Hz native refresh rate may be a limiting factor for competitive gamers looking for higher frame rates on next-gen consoles.
