Philips Launches Massive 100-Inch Ambilight TV
The new 100-inch model combines immersive lighting with high-end features at a competitive price point.
A Home Cinema: 100 Inches and the Magic of Ambilight
Philips has unveiled the world's largest Ambilight television as part of its renowned The One series. The 100-inch screen sets a new standard for those seeking the most immersive experience possible at home. The Ambilight technology, which uses LED lights around the frame to project on-screen colours onto the surrounding walls, looks particularly impressive on a display of this scale.
Ambiscape and Smart Home Integration
The new model offers more than just sheer size. It is equipped with Philips’ Ambiscape feature, which allows the television to communicate with other smart lights in the room. The system synchronises with popular brands such as Hue, IKEA, and Wiz. As a result, the entire room is enveloped in visual effects, creating the sensation that the image is extending beyond the television's frame.
Technical Specifications and Capabilities
The TV utilises a QLED panel with direct LED backlighting, ensuring high-quality contrast and colour gamut. For gamers, a significant addition is the inclusion of four HDMI 2.1 ports, providing maximum compatibility with modern consoles. In terms of audio, the device supports Dolby Atmos and DTS:X standards, while it runs on the Titan OS, offering users access to all popular streaming services.
Price and Availability
Although the official recommended retail price for the device is €4,300, it is already available on the European market for less than €2,100. This is a highly competitive offer for a device of this scale. It is worth noting that Philips-branded televisions are manufactured under a different licence in North America, so this specific model is currently focused on the European market.
The television market is constantly evolving, and consumers are increasingly paying attention to both screen size and additional technological features. This move by Philips confirms the trend that premium features, such as Ambilight and high-resolution panels, are becoming increasingly accessible to the mass market.
