The Master series is the nickname for Sony’s very raw products, where performance is in focus, and the price comes second. We still have the test of the 8K screen KD-85ZG9 fresh in our minds, and it was so sharp and contrast-rich that it almost burned into the retina, permanently! Unfortunately, it will also burn …
LG was responsible for some of last year’s best TVs: With the help of Sony, Panasonic and Philips, they have managed to make OLED a dominant technology in the high-end class, and a favorite among image enthusiasts. But there is no point in resting on your laurels: With arch-rival Samsung and their QLED monitors notch …
Samsung has long been one of the trendsetters when it comes to TV technology, design and ease of use. Last year’s introduction of TV with 8K resolution was a good example of that. However, the development is fast, and now there are brand new 2019 models that apply. Many people wonder if this will be …
Laser-sharp TV screens with 8K resolution are the latest craze on the television front. With four times as many pixels as today’s 4K screens, the new screen technology promises us such sharp and vivid images that it almost surpasses reality! The technology is still in its infancy, it will probably take 4-5 years before the …
The old adage, “two heads are better than one”, inspires a popular strategy in the audio and video industry. When a manufacturer launches a new product, you can almost bet it has “audio from producer Y” or “designed by producer Z” included in the description. This can range from pure licensing to more in-depth cooperation. …
Long before many of today’s manufacturers made their first “goggle-box”, Philips was established as one of the TV heavyweights – literally. Anyone who ever tried to lift a hippo-heavy 32-inch Widescreen CRT television can vouch for this! A lot has happened since then, but Philips still plays an important role in the TV jungle. They …
Modern TV’s are getting ever more beautiful image quality, but the sound is worse. The slimmer the display, the less room there is for proper speakers. No wonder the sale of separate audio solutions has skyrocketed! A soundbar can significantly elevate the audio experience – the downside is that it takes up extra space, rarely …
What primarily distinguishes the new Philips 55POS9002 from the competition is the patented Ambilight that lights the back wall with the same colours you see on the TV screen. This gives a contrast-enhancing effect that can definitely boost your experience of the picture by several notches. It will be extra exciting to see how this …
While the other TV manufacturers are busy with their final adjustments, Philips has managed to get its first 2018 models shipped to the store. Philips 65OLED873 is out first, which by all indications will be the most affordable OLED TV this year. The recipe is very similar to last year’s models: OLED panel, P5 picture …
Participant number 2 from Philips is a slightly more expensive variant. The 8303 series has a more exclusive and confidence-inspiring finish than the 7363. The TV is heavier, everything seems a bit more sturdily put together, and the base in plexiglass gives an impression of luxury. Usability and features Like other Philips models, this is …
Sony has a long tradition of delivering good televisions where picture quality is important. We still fondly remember the test winner from 2017 (55XE9005), and it is these accomplishments that the newcomer XF9005 has to live up to. Usability and features Like Philips, Sony has put its trust in Android as a smart operating system. …
The Q6 Series is the most affordable of Samsung’s exclusive QLED-models. When it comes to appearance, this is definitely one of the most delectable in the test. The TV is very slim, with a barely visible frame around the screen. The back is completely smooth, with no visible cables. These are hidden behind a cover …
Philips has distinguished itself with several good TVs lately, including the 65OLED763, which has set the bar in the high-end class. The model we are testing here is a more ordinary LCD display in the mid-range. It has a rather simple execution, with a slightly thicker plastic hull than the other test participants. No attempt …
LG 65SK7900 has a rather simple design. It lacks a bit of the exclusive performance one gets with LG’s OLED models, as well as the more expensive SK8500. Having said that, the construction quality is quite good. One thing to note is that the two feet can only be fitted to the furthest ends. Thus, …
The new Panasonic FX700 series is among Panasonic’s cheaper models, but the appearance is slightly deceiving: The TV seems more expensive than the price would suggest. It actually looks a bit exclusive with its tight and sleek workmanship. The frame is in brushed metal and the back is smooth with connections hidden behind the covers. …
