Noticed an update available today. After many teething problems now pleased with the TV. Could do with more TV player apps though.

just bought one last night from argos milton keynes, there was one more in stock. A real bargain with builtin chromecast.

Has anyone managed to get a Sky+ HD remote working with this TV?

I've tried the Philips codes on the Sky website and can get the control to adjust the volume and switch the TV off, but not switch it back on again.

Mine's the 50 inch version but I imagine it'd use the same code as the 55.

Thanks!

Has anyone tried this yet with the console, as i would be interested in buying this tv for my lounge :smiley:

yes GTA V - PS4 without game mode on lag is noticeable. but with Game mode on its fine. I did update to latest firmware so I guess that helps.

Stupidly, on this set game mode does not function as you would expect on most TV's... It's just a picture preset rather than a low latency mode.

Instead you have to manually turn off all the picture processing to get the lag down a bit. One review mentions lag gets as high as 70ms, rather than the published 50.

I use my Panasonic 4K 3D smart tv's for PC gaming at 60hz, actually this explains it better. http://www.cnet.com/uk/news/4k-tvs-with-passive-3d-finally-a-good-use-for-all-those-pixels/

Chrome is available on it, you have to send it to the Shield via the play store web page not app and use side launcher, oh and you need a mouse to work it. Also like all Android devices of you don't like the launcher then you can change it by doing the same thing. Android TV is designed out of the box to be simple on purpose, don't like it being so then its easily changeable.

TheVoice

No, but the apps themselves lack a decent amount of features which means more often than not I end up using my phone to Cast to it instead. The home screen launcher is also as basic as it gets; there's essentially no options for customisation which is pitiful considering this has always been Android's main selling point. There's no Chrome. There's not even a news/weather widget. It really does very little to set itself apart from all the other proprietary Smart TV interfaces, which is a real shame.

That's kind of invalid... The apps you mention are for productivity and are therefore relatively unnecessary for an entertainment platform. The streaming of content from another device however, is completely relevant and useful for the platform of television.

brookysm

What lacklustre support? The only App missing that they do that a TV would use is Photo's, you seriously think it should have Gmail, maps, calendar etc?

Ive got 17.5 procent discount in Argos so it makes it 511 pounds and from 10 to 13 Dec they gave us 27.5 procent discount so it makes it 448 is it worth it ??

You can't simply allow a App designed for use on a touchscreen onto a format that doesn't have a touchscreen! App developers have to redesign their apps to use a remote input instead for Android TV, that isn't something Google can magically wave a wand and do themselves.

reviews say it has 50m second input delay, which it says is high and rubbish for gsming.
is thay really true?
i think my old Samsung has 24m.
can you really notice the difference?

Yes, but they do make the Google apps which are mostly quite poor, they're responsible for the lack of functionality in the TV launcher and they've yet to update the Chromecast support as I said.

Have been eyeing this set for a few weeks,disappointed that it doesnt include 3d or ambilight , im also looking out for the 7 and 8000 series but cant find any in the uk. Ive messaged philips to ask if they will be available soon and the price but it wont be anywhere near this price point. Heat.

I own the 40 inch version. Great TV capable of some stunning pictures. The default settings are awful though. There is a good review of it online that suggests much better settings and is worth a read. Android apps a bit limited (no Spotify annoyingly) but I am impressed with it so far.

TheVoice to aden_76

4 Dec 15 #18

The lack of Spotify is a huge annoyance, especially when the Chromecast supports it via the mobile app yet the TVs don't. Google are really letting Android TV down with the lack of decent support for it.

Gaming on this suffers because of the notable input lag. Even when making use of the Console / PC mode. Very nice TV though,

Yes, but I don't think the 4K spec includes 3D @ 4K. It's not supported by Ultra Blu-Ray.

and remember your free £10 voucher when you spend more then £100 so coming in at £609.

Was curious how many hours the expected annual usage was. Yearly total is 98kWh at power of 67 watts.
(98000 watt hours/one 67 watt hour)/365 = 4 Hours a day! Doesn't leave much space my for social life :smiley:.

jouster

4 Dec 15 1 #11

I think it's fair to say this is a great but low price for a 4K TV of its size. And you basically get what you pay for.
