Editorial note

The Philips 55PUS7956 stands out for its immersive visual experience thanks to its 55-inch 4K Ultra HD screen, offering sharp images and vibrant colors. However, its lack of Smart TV features limits access to popular streaming apps, which can be a drawback for users seeking a complete multimedia experience. In terms of performance, the native refresh rate of 60 Hz may not be sufficient for those looking for optimal smoothness when viewing high-speed content, such as video games or sports events. Despite this, the environmentally friendly design, with low power consumption in standby mode, contributes to savings on energy bills. The modern design of the television is an asset, but its weight of 14.4 kg can make installation and transport more complicated, especially for one person. Additionally, while the product offers advanced audio features, such as Dolby Atmos decoders, its low energy efficiency class (F for SDR and E for HDR) may lead to higher energy bills, thus impacting its perceived value. Overall, the Philips 55PUS7956 is a solid choice for those who prioritize image quality, but it has limitations in connectivity and smoothness that should be considered before purchase.
