I tested two mid-range 4K OLED TVs side-by-side and the results surprised me

OLED TVs are among the most popular available thanks to the realistic contrast levels created by their self-dimming pixels, which give images a lifelike appearance. For many years, OLED has been at the premium end of the market, unattainable for many people, but over time more affordable (by OLED standards) mid-range models have become available. 

Philips makes some of the best TVs, including high-quality mid-range TVs. The company’s sets also include Ambilight tech, which uses coloured lights projected on the wall behind the screen to add an immersive element. I enjoyed Ambilight so much when I tested the Philips OLED808, that it made me feel like a kid at Christmas.
