According to our television expert
With the Philips The One 65PUS8505 - Ambilight (2020) + Soundbar, you can bring the cinema to your living room. The 4K resolution and the 10-bit panel provide colorful and sharp images, which are supported by the clear sound of the soundbar. During an explosion in a movie, you can see all the details of the debris flying at you, while the subwoofer in the soundbar provides the low tones of the dull bang. The P5 processor of the television improves the less good image sources and always keeps the image quality up to standard. Don't like having multiple remotes? You can connect the soundbar via the HDMI ARC port to operate your soundbar with the TV remote control.

Design
After the easy installation, I notice that the Philips The One immediately stands out because of its sleek design. The TV stands very firmly on the foot, which, like the edge, has a matte silver color. With the smaller sizes of The One, the foot is rotatable. The larger 65 inch version I am reviewing does not have a swivel base.
After some settings change nice color rendering In terms of image quality, I notice that images are very sharp and clear. Although some colors seem a bit too bright or unkempt at the beginning, I like the color reproduction after changing a few settings. HDR images in particular have clear subtle color tones thanks to the HDR support. Black parts of the image look good dark for an LED TV. Another advantage: due to the reasonably high brightness, you can also safely watch TV in a brighter room, without the image losing contrast.
Ambilight is a nice addition to most images The three-sided Ambilight works quickly and precisely. I find that the lighting on the wall behind the television in the colors of the picture works well, especially if you are watching TV in a dark room. When you get tired of the Ambilight, you can turn it off or less bright via the settings. I like that, because it's not equally impressive with everything you look at. For example, if you watch a film with many dark images, Ambilight mainly shows white and gray light.
Standard sound, little bass While the more expensive LED televisions in the Philips line have a soundbar, The One has to make do with 2 built-in speakers. That is why the TV does sacrifice some sound quality here. For normal use, if you mainly watch live television or sports, the sound is fine. I notice that voices sound clear and can be heard clearly. As a movie buff, I do miss the deep bass tones. That is why I definitely recommend using a soundbar with this TV.
Clear smart menu The Android smart menu is extensive and I find the operation smooth and simple. The apps I use most, such as Netflix, YouTube, and Disney+, are already installed. The remote control fits comfortably in the hand and feels sturdy. Philips OLED televisions have a remote control with a QWERTY keyboard on the back. I do miss that convenience with The One's remote control.

After long hesitation, we ordered the 65-inch Philips The One (2020). We have never regretted our purchase. A really beautiful TV that seems to float because of the beautiful design. Most importantly, of course, is the image quality which is so phenomenal, so clear and sharp! I would recommend this TV to everyone. The installation is also done in no time. The advantage of this TV is that all my favorite apps are supported. Now I can access all apps at the touch of a button. An extra plus to this TV is the built-in chromecast.

Despite the fact that it is a 50 hertz TV, the image quality is very good. 4k content is beautifully rendered. Installation is very simple and you don't really need a manual. The link with the hue bridge was also surprisingly quick and easy and works perfectly.
There are no real downsides for that price. Yes it can always be nicer and better, but isn't the grass always greener on the other side?
