OLED+908 – The flagship shines with light

Available in autumn 2023 – 55”, 65” and 77” sizes – the OLED+908 features the latest META OLED panel with additional power from the 7th Gen P5 AI processor, an integrated Bowers & Wilkins sound system and a three-sided Next Gen Ambilight system, all of which combine to offer a unique immersive and high-quality viewing experience.

The new META OLED panel utilizes the Micro Lens Array layer and the META-known brightness enhancement algorithm to deliver a potential peak brightness of 2100 nits, which represents an increase of 70 percent while providing a wider viewing angle and improved energy efficiency.

The 7th Gen P5 AI processor offers an improved V2 version of Ambient Intelligence, which enables real-time adjustment of screen brightness, gamma value, and color response to ensure optimal performance adapted to the lighting conditions of the environment. The V2 version of Ambient Intelligence uses a new XYZ light sensor that can now measure the color temperature of the viewing room’s light, so the white point of the display now corresponds exactly to the real-time hue of the room’s ambient lighting.

The improved Super Resolution feature also offers exceptional edge sharpness while creating plenty of detail in the main part of the improved display.

The sound quality matches the exceptional PQ thanks to the Bowers & Wilkins 3.1, 80 W audio system. Six front-mounted speakers shoot sound directly towards the listener to the left, center, and right in a special LCR arrangement, which provides a very wide sound range and crystal-clear dialogue. The deep and precise bass comes from a large, rear-mounted subwoofer, supported by four passive radiators.

Like all 2023 OLED Ambilight TVs, the OLED+908 also features the new Google TV OS operating system. It is a more sophisticated and advanced version of the current Android TV experience, featuring a more intuitive interface and home screen. It now places greater emphasis on personalized content and customized recommendations. Google TV integrates with the new, more intuitive interface of the Ambilight 2023 lineup, providing easier access to key settings and functions while reducing the overlap of menus with the display image.

The minimalist design of the OLED+908 features a very slim dark metal frame, which matches the dark Kvadrat Audiomix fabric speaker grille and the new black glossy metal stand. The OLED+908 also features a new remote control with a USB-C charging battery, a new 123 shortcut key for turning the backlight on and off, and a motion sensor that detects when the remote is lifted and activates the backlight.

OLED808 – An improvement to the OLED lineup

The OLED808 series brings a new display size to the Ambilight TV lineup in the form of the first 42″ OLED model. It joins the current 48″, 55″, 65″, and 77″ display sizes.

The OLED808 lineup brings with it the power of the new 7th Gen P5 AI. It includes Ambient Intelligence V2 and new Super resolution features. Additionally, it features 55-inch and larger OLED_EX panels with 1,000 Nit brightness that guarantee excellent image quality. The OLED808, as well as all 2023 OLED series displays, also offer excellent gaming performance by now adding Dolby Vision 4K 120 Hz compatibility to HDMI 2.1 e-ARC, 4K 40 Hz to 120 Hz support with full 48 Gbps bandwidth (444, 12 bits), FreeSync Premium and G-SYNC compatibility, and Auto Game and Auto-Low-Latency modes.

Excellent sound quality remains the highlight of the lineup thanks to the integrated 70 W 2.1 audio system (50 W in the 42-inch model). It features a more precise digital amplifier that precisely controls the distribution to the left and right speakers and a purpose-designed, three-ring rear-firing subwoofer – supported by four passive radiators.

The OLED808 features a razor-thin, bezel-less design and an exterior dark metal frame that enables a seamless connection to the more sophisticated and powerful three-dimensional Next Gen Ambilight system. It enhances color accuracy and detail, creating the most stunning viewing experience. Most OLED808 models feature a new, stylish, centralized, metallic, satin-chromed EVO stand. The only exception is the 77-inch model, which features new metallic, flat, satin-chromed offset stands.

The Google TV OS and the new interface also ensure a simpler and more personalized user experience.

”The ”The Xtra” series Start by doing More easily accessible than the performance of MiniLED

New one”The Xtra” series The first model is the 9308 MiniLED TV, which will be launched in the third quarter in sizes of 55” and 65”. It continues to offer excellent performance and great value.

The 9308 placed below the Ambilight OLED models still offers exceptional picture and sound performance with the 7th Gen P5 processor and a high-quality 120 Hz 98 % DCI WCG panel – which produces an impressive 1,000 Nit brightness – as well as a 64 W 2.1 Bowers & Wilkins surround sound system.

A uniquely immersive viewing experience is possible with the three-sided version of the Ambilight system, and viewers can also enjoy an enhanced, enhanced Smart TV experience developed by TP Vision.

The design of the series extends to a very narrow metal frame, whose anthracite surface is dark and a brushed black glossy strip is located at the bottom of the screen, which matches the finish of the open frame stand. The design is complemented by the dark Kavdrat audiomix fabric of the speaker compartment.

Another basic level The Xtra The MiniLED series – the 9008 series – will also be launched in 55”, 65” and 75” versions, featuring a 7th Gen P5 panel with 1,000 Nit brightness, a powerful 40 W 2.0 audio system, and anthracite-gray offset feet.

The One – still shining​​

Very successful”The One” The Performance series remains a very important part of Philips’ Ambilight TV lineup, and it will be updated with two new series – 8808 and 8507 – in the second quarter of 2023. Both series feature a 7th Gen P5 processor.

Both series feature high-quality WCG panels with a frequency of 120 Hz in the 8808 and 60 Hz in the 8508. The 8508 60 Hz panel also features DLG and HRS technology that produces 4K 120 Hz content with the fluidity and sharpness of a 120 Hz panel.

Both series feature three-sided versions of the immersive Ambilight system and the new Google TV OS operating system, as well as a more intuitive interface.

The 43″ – 65″ 8808 model has a minimal anthracite gray frame with a brushed accent on the bottom edge of the screen, and the rotating EVO stand is also finished in anthracite gray. The 8808 in 75″ and 85″ versions has anthracite gray metal round legs.
