4K Ultra HD
4K Ultra HD TVs have the ability to display high-definition content with a resolution of 3840x2160. It is by far the most common resolution now.
Refresh Rate
50/60 Hz

Refresh Rate

The refresh rate is the number of frames per second that a TV can display and is expressed in hertz (Hz). Most TVs are 50/60 Hz, while some are 100 or 120 Hz. Higher frame rates offer smoother images (without stuttering or blurring) in fast-paced scenes such as sports or action movies.
Type of Panel
Edge LED

Type of Panel

HDR Types
-

HDR Types

Technologies that enhance contrast and color performance for a more realistic image. There are various HDR standards, such as HDR10, Dolby Vision, HLG, and HDR10+, with differences in quality and display capabilities.
Local Dimming
No

Local Dimming

LED TVs use LED backlighting behind the screen. LED TVs with Local Dimming capability can illuminate different areas of the screen with different intensities, achieving better local black performance and contrast compared to regular LEDs.

OLED TVs do not require this technology as the lighting is integrated into each individual pixel and can be completely turned off, providing absolute black and even better contrast.

Audio

Channels
Stereo

Channels

Channels refer to the number and type of individual speakers contained in the television and are described by 2 numbers separated by a dot. The first number refers to how many full-range speakers (speakers for the entire frequency range) the television contains, while the second refers to how many subwoofer-type speakers (speakers specialized for bass frequencies). For example, a television with 2.1 speakers has 2 regular speakers and 1 subwoofer.

2. Almost all television programs are stereo (for playback from at least 2 speakers), meaning they are designed to sound different in each of the 2 speakers to give the listener a sense of space. More speakers make this feeling even more realistic, and the presence of a subwoofer gives fuller bass.

Stereo
Most televisions have stereo speakers, meaning they contain 2 speakers for stereo sound (sound with depth).
Power
20 W

Power

The sum of the power of the TV speakers. Most TVs have 2 speakers of 10 watts each, which add up to 20 watts.

The TV speakers are sufficient for basic use, but for an improved experience, it is recommended to use a Soundbar or a Home Cinema system.

    Basically, it is the 7906 with a silver frame instead of charcoal. Very good construction, elegant, and the picture is amazing, after the necessary adjustments, because "out of the box" the picture is blurry and somewhat blue. The first and main move is to disable the light sensor! Then, a little fine-tuning is needed mainly in colors and somewhat in brightness, depending on each person's preferences. The panel is very good and experienced users have endless possibilities for color adjustment and even white balance.

    The sound is good, always maintaining proportions. Ambilight enhances the experience, as always. It made two upgrades from 1.35GB each as soon as it connected, instantly and without any problem with the wifi.

    The translations in some parts of the menu are funny, like "φωτογραφία" instead of "εικόνα"... Overall, a very good device, with the well-known weaknesses of Philips, such as the sorting of terrestrial channels, and the strengths, such as the picture - at least in its high-end series.

    edit: 2 months later: the sound is probably better than expected...
    in some cases, when using a subscription TV app, it starts to freeze and respond in slow motion, until it requires a restart. It needs to be unplugged and booted from the beginning to recover. It may be the app's fault, I don't know...
    edit2: after the recent third update (1.35GB), it seems that the problem with occasional freezes in the TV app has been resolved

Γεια χαρά, την πήρα Ιανουάριο και έκανε 2 αναβαθμίσεις κατευθείαν. Την τρίτη την έκανε πριν 2-3 εβδομάδες. Πιθανώς σε εσένα έκανε μόνο την τελευταία γιατί περιέχει και τις βελτιώσεις από τις προηγούμενες.
