Great set for the money but it's not perfect...

1. The colour presets are mostly ****.
2. The speakers are terrible - not a problem for me as I have it going through an amp (which is very well controlled via ARC) but if you don't have an amp, budget for one or get a soundbar.
3. The blacks are only OK - not great.

Otherwise, the set is great - HDR looks amazing via a PS4 Pro and Android really opens it up in terms of usage.

Some tips for best use:
1. Tweak the picture manually. "Photo" or "ISA Day" are the best presets but you'll the perfect balance can only be found manually.
2. Update the firmware immediately - a few features (like Netflilx HDR) and a lot of stability problems have been addressed in the latest firmware.
3. Go into the menus and enable 4:4:4 / 4:2:2 to get HDR from external sources.
4. Use the Internet as the source for your EPG (icon in the top of the guide)
5. Turn the sharpness down or off for 4K sources (causes intermittent flickering)
6. You'll want to hide the Philips Apps section on the home screen as they're out of date and duplicated below - go into Apps settings, find Leanback Customizer and turn off notifications.
7. You can sideload apps with ES File Manager and launch them with Sideload Launcher .
8. If you run out of storage, you can move apps to a USB stick.

I'll go first then, not HDR10 cheeky

What do you mean it's not OLED or HDR10 for £449.10!

Amazing price, heated. Probably best price there is for a 55" 4k set with hdr. I got a Digihome 55" 4k set last year for £350, much as i like it. If £100 more for a hdr set had been open to me id have probably taken it, especially since 4k and hdr seem to go hand in hand these days...

I bought this last week for £468 and I really like it. picture quality is excellent and massive step up from my 10 year old plasma. it's a budget TV but from what I can see probably the best budget value 55 inch you can get. android seems good and I can use Plex to stream media from my laptop. only a 2 year guarantee is a con compared to John Lewis and richer sounds but you'll probably pay another couple of hundred hundred pounds for that. remote doesn't seem to have a microphone for Google Voice searches but you can download an app for your phone to get around that.

Can you download kodi on this set?

Does this set have a wide colour gamut?

bought this 3 months ago when it was this price. its decent'ish for the money but my key annoyances are that there's a regular 'flickering' which looks like the tv is resetting picture settings by itself - others have also complained about it so its not just a faulty set. Also the blacks are terrible. On the plus side, its a cheap big screen tv with android (plex, kodi and mobdro easy to install) and amblight which are all plus points IF you're on a sub £500 budget. Personally i wish id spent £600-£700 for a set with better blacks

kodi can be downloaded.

Just keep in mind these are not made by Philips anymore.
