Philips reviews & products

What Hi-Fi? Awards 2018 winner. This Ambilight TV has a picture to brighten up your day

Cheap, portable, wireless and noise-cancelling, these Philips headphones are fantastic value for money...

This is a much finer Philips TV than its budget price might suggest.

Adding Ambilight to OLED is brilliant, but this Philips has much more to offer.

Too much bass leaves the Philips SHB4385s wanting in other areas.

We take a closer look at Philips's new flagship 4K OLED TV with Ambilight, the 65in OLED 9 series...

Dolby Atmos in a soundbar, but performance isn’t the best at this price

This 4K HDR television seems like a bargain, but does the performance deliver?

Can Philips' first ever OLED TV hit the ground running?

Plenty of multi-room skills, but it doesn't have the audio performance to match

Philips has made decent sound a priority with this excellent 24in TV...

This 4K TV has much to commend it, but a lack of catch-up apps and some sound and picture flaws mean it can't quite summon enough to beat its five-star rivals

These Philips noise-cancelling headphones look like our Award-winners, but can’t beat them for sound

Upfront and exciting, the M2Ls are the best Lightning headphones so far

This likeable 4K screen packs in the technology and doesn't cost a fortune...

For the money, Philips' 4K HDR TV is a pretty appealing buy...

The B1 is a smart compact soundbar useful for small TVs, but let down by lacklustre sound quality...

The plastic’s not fantastic, but the Philips AE8000 is a decent radio with good features...

This portable all-in-one projector is a neat concept executed brilliantly

Pricey, but this Philips 4K TV is all about the Ambilux...

Ambilight tech and detachable speakers make this Philips 4K TV something quite different...

Plenty of features in this innovative split-design soundbase...

A decent effort from Philips, no more, no less...

The B5 combines soundbar, surround sound and multi-room in one brilliant package...

Trim and trendy TV let down by a lack of detail in the picture

These Philips in-ears are an affordable and easy listen...

If you're looking for unrivalled comfort, an eye-pleasing design and impressive sound quality, the X2s deliver in spades...

While this Philips boasts an impressive picture, it never quite fulfills its potential

These comfortable and compact headphones take you for a thrilling ride...

This one has much to offer, but the lack of Full HD at this price is a stumbling block

There's a lot to look for in a pair of noise-cancelling headphones - can the Philips NC1s deliver?

Built-in Spotify Connect is a nice feature, but a flawed performance lets the side down.

For the money, the Philips is a great, affordable way to go wireless

Best portable on-ear headphones £100-£200, Awards 2016. A lovely pair of portable headphones. Highly recommended.

Philips delivers another good, well-priced TV with the accent on picture quality

Best soundbar up to £300, Awards 2014. Everything a budget soundbar should be: insightful, balanced and unobtrusive

Best wireless headphones, Awards 2014. These headphones have all the selling points of the M1BTs, plus NFC. A does-it-all product every bit as good as its Award-winning predecessor

The E5 is a lovely idea, but there are limitations to its application and it’s quite pricey

Excels in many areas, but let down by below-par standard definition

A low-cost big screen with limitations: not quite the flagship we’re looking for

The first Fidelio in-ears have strengths but aren’t much suited to a life on the move

Stick with HD content and the Philips dazzles with confidence, but rivals offer better performance for a better price

Musical and detailed, these versatile speakers have your entertainment needs covered

If you’re willing to spend £250 to boost your TV sound, look no further

A capable performance, but we could do with more punch

A very good performer with impressive ergonomics, but it’s beaten by the best at the price

A fine 4K TV that’s full of pros and with only a few cons. A real contender

Product of the Year, Awards 2013. If you want a shape-shifting soundbar with surround sound, make sure to seek this one out

Best wireless headphones, Awards 2013. The Philips cost a bit, but it’s a small price to pay for superb sound and Bluetooth functionality

Superb picture quality across both HD and SD content, this friendly Philips TV is lovely to watch and use

If you’re after a DAB/FM radio with Bluetooth functionality for a good price, we urge you to look here

Stylish TV with impressive picture and comfortable 3D – this one’s a strong contender

A great TV from Philips, with stunning performance across the board

It might have its niggles, but we’re willing to forgive them (mostly) for the wonderful picture and comfortable viewing experience. We’re impressed

Stylish and portable with a seriously enjoyable sound – there's a lot to like about this Bluetooth speaker

Another great set of headphones from Philips, the X1s are good enough to worry the very best at this price

A fantastic TV that should be on anyone's shortlist if they're after a big-screen

A strong start for Philips' new TV range

Not the cheapest small-screen TV, but it's one of the best

A good, rugged option for portable sound

Best portable on-ears £100-£200, Awards 2013. Never tiring, always pleasant, these are great cans

Great for everyday usage and stylish to boot

Easy-going, decently detailed sound, let down by fat bass and notched-out midrange

If space and budget are tight, then this system is a super solution

There aren't that many 21:9 televisions on the market, but this Philips LCD is the best one we've seen so far

Distinctive AirPlay speakers are a pretty persuasive proposition

Comfortable, easy-going headphones with a refined sound

Comfortable, but need to sound better

One of the best Philips flatscreens ever, but there’s still room for improvement

One of the better AirPlay speakers we've tested

They may be a snug fit but they have an ill-sorted sound

Incredible in some areas, but there are flaws in its picture performance

Style isn't enough to raise the Philips BDP7600's game

It may be smaller than its sibling, but the Philips Fidelio Primo DS9 sings the same, fine song

The Philips Fidelio Primo DS9010 is a stylish, well thought-out piece of kit

It might have some excellent aspects, but the lack of Freeview HD and blurred motion on this otherwise capable Philips hold it firmly back

This Philips backlit LCD certainly falls into the 'desirable' category, but a lack of HD tuner and its high price work against it

The Philips 32PFL7605 has features such as NetTV, so you can surf the web and access media content

The second 21:9 LCD television from Philips certainly has some minor niggles, but for out and out wow factor it leads the field

In terms of performance this Philips is perfectly adequate, but there are much better choices out there – without even including Apple

It's beautiful to look at and a great compromise between eco friendliness and performance, but it's still not the best in its class

If you positively have to have a matching Blu-ray player for your Philips 3D TV, then this is the one to go for, otherwise there are better options

The Philips 46PF9705 has an intriguing specification but no HD tuner, and standard-definition pictures look rough

The Philips MCI900 may have striking looks but the musical delivery is unforgivably bland and soft

This LCD from Philips is a great television, but minor flaws, including lack of Freeview HD, prevent it from being truly exemplary

With the introduction of this smart and compact dock from Philips, B&W's mighty Zeppelin finally has some stiff competition

Well kitted out, the Philips HDT8520 is a excellent Freeview HD+ box

In the BDP3100, Philips has produced a great Blu-ray player that's only really beaten on price by its leading rival

Designed in conjunction with Pace, this set-top box can certainly perform, but there's no denying that others are worth the extra cash

The Philips 46PFL9704 is now a discontinued model.

It's larger then your average MP3 player, and there are a few foibles for sure, but we really like this classy design from Philips

This Blu-ray player is a real flag in the sand for Philips; it holds up well against the class-leaders, and at a good price too

We thought nothing would come close to matching the dramatic depth and punch of Pioneer's Kuro plasma sets. Enter Philips...

Once again Philips has produced a thoroughly premium set; the only snag is that thoroughly premium price to match

It's happened again - Philips has produced an all singing and all dancing set that we love. OK, blacks could be better, but we'd recommend this

This is a first-rate TV from Philips, but it struggles to justify the extra cost over another Philips model, the £1200 47PFL7404

The Philips BDP-3000 Blu-ray player has a decent picture and lively sound – all at a tantalisingly affordable price

It's expensive, but this 32 inch LCD from Philips offers a lot for what you pay, and you won't be disappointed

Utterly brilliant. £1500 might sound a tad pricey but this is one of the most exciting sets we've seen in years

It's got a couple of flaws and missing features, but we can't help but like this new Streamium
