Okay, Google, I turn on the film. Overview of the TV Philips 48PFS8209 / 60 – Ferra

The first TVs Philips, running on Android TV, were presented last fall at the fair IFA 2014. Thus, at first glance, trivial way the company managed to increase strongly enough functionality to their “boxes”. During a detailed study 48PFS8209 / 60 I will touch on this subject. However, can install applications on the internal drive straight from Play Market in theory increases the functionality to infinity.

But Android – is not the only “trick” model, and the entire 8200 series. TP Vision engineers very carefully approached the issue of the design of the device. As a result, armed with proven technology Ambilight, they have managed to create a very stylish and, figuratively speaking, “weightless” device. Model 48PFS8209 / 60 – the flagship, but in this series, there are 55-inch variation. For those who are 48 inches small. 8800 and 8900 are also equipped with Android, but already support the resolution format Ultra HD.

The word “weightless” I tried to describe the design of the device, because looks 48PFS8209 / 60 easily and gracefully. Philips called it the Razor Slim. Yes, when creating this device clearly traced “notes” minimalism inherent to most modern televisions. However, Philips, it was decided to abandon the glossy plastic and conservative dark shades. The main color in 48PFS8209 / 60 – metallic, extra – white.

Minimalism is manifested in everything. Thus, the model has a very thin frame. Feels like they are made of aluminum and are characteristic of the metal texture. Although part of the rear panel is also made of white plastic. Below the logo, which is committed during unobtrusive. In this module, by the way, built-in camera. But it just did not notice it!

For more visual lightness 48PFS8209 / 60 attach the supplied steel corner legs. In general, I repeat, this model looks very stylish. With regard to the specific characteristics, the device weighs no less than 13.6 kg.

Manufacturer several slukavil by specifying the characteristics of the thickness of the TV just 13 mm. Underlined the minimum setting. Yet by placing the audio subsystem, lamps Ambilight and I / O-panel with a large number of ports is quite noticeable bulging plastic block. If we consider and, the thickness 48PFS8209 / 60 will no longer such a record 30 mm.

The TV can boast a large number of modern ports. There are four HDMI and three USB. Other interfaces are listed in the specifications, as well as captured in the photo below. 48PFS8209 / 60 is equipped with a tuner that supports standards DVB-T / T2 / C / S / S2. Therefore, the model is completely aptitude for working with national television.

In the lower left corner of the control lever is the basic settings of the TV. Plus very convenient miniature solution.

As always, advanced models boast Philips technology support Ambilight. Konkrentno in 48PFS8209 / 60 uses 4-sided version. The relevant settings menu there are many modes of operation. In addition, Ambilight can adjust the color of the walls. We even in the wording about the dispute on the subject of this technology. Personally, I think that Ambilight does not improve the perception of the image is shown on the screen. However, as the debate, there is an opposite opinion.

 & # x41D; & # x430; & # x441; & # x442; & # x440; & # x43E; & # x439; & # x43A; & # x430; Ambilight
Setup Ambilight

Complete with 48PFS8209 / 60 was a pair of 3D-glasses. TV support active shutter technology. As well as the classic two-way remote control. “Lazy” turned out, in my opinion, is quite cumbersome. Powered by two standard control “finger” batteries. Manufacturer was able to integrate a wider range of functions.

 & # x41F; & # x443; & # x43B; & # x44C; & # x442; & # x434; & # x438; & # x441; & # x442; & # x430; & # x43D; & # x446; & # x438; & # x43E; & # x43D; & # x43D; & # x43E; & # x433; & # x43E; & # x443; & # x43F; & # x440; & # x430; & # x432; & # x43B; & # x435; & # x43D; & # x438; & # x44F; Philips 48PFS8209 / 60
Remote Control Philips 48PFS8209 / 60

For example, the remote can operate in laser pointer. To activate this mode, you need to put a finger to the button OK, it is integrated sensor. Work pointer is not so convenient, especially the habit. But perhaps for Android TV this way is fine.

The remote has a built-in microphone. 48PFS8209 / 60 supports voice control. For example, verbal commands, you can disable a particular function. Working with Android TV, convenient to use and voice search.

The reverse side of the remote is fully reserved for the QWERTY-keyboard. In the lower right-hand side there is a handy joystick designed to quickly move through the various menus.

 & # x41E; & # x431; & # x43E; & # x440; & # x43E; & # x442; & # x43D; & # x430; & # x44F; & # x441; & # x442; & # x43E; & # x440; & # x43E; & # x43D; & # x430; & # x43F; & # x443; & # x43B; & # x44C; & # x442 ; & # x430; & # x443; & # x43F; & # x440; & # x430; & # x432; & # x43B; & # x435; & # x43D; & # x438; & # x44F; Philips 48PFS8209 / 60

Philips 48PFS8209 / 60 supports gesture control. So some of the features, whether change the volume or flipping pages, and can be controlled without the remote.



Features Smart TV

By the way, in March presented models running on the operating system Lollipop

A detailed description of the features Android TV Philips TV you can find here. On the “box” installed operating system version 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean). Model 48PFS8209 / 60 is equipped with 1.6 GB of internal memory, which, strictly speaking, and install applications. Not enough to be honest. And to increase the capacity of their own will not work. Android TV for the work meets the 4-core ARM-based processors. The exact model of the “stone”, unfortunately, was not disclosed. The default application list is as follows:

  • Browser Google Chrome;
  •  

  • Search;
  •  

  • Voice Search;
  •  

  • Google Play Movies;
  •  

  • Google Play Music;
  •  

  • YouTube.

  •  

By default, the TV is already installed a number of applications. Supported by a number of online movie theaters, including popular in Russia ivi.ru, tvigle and play. Implemented and social programs: facebook, twitter and skype. Finally, 48PFS8209 / 60 supports Cloud TV. Thus, it is possible to connect to the TV account Dropbox.

TV supports recording to a connected USB-drive.

Note that the Smart-component 48PFS8209 / 60, as well as the menu settings work very smartly. We see that in TV integrated powerful enough filling. Claims unless there is a built-in media player, which is a very long time (10-15 seconds) video opens a volume of several gigabytes. Plus, despite the declared support for mkv, the TV does not have reproduced some of the test clips.



Image and sound

In my opinion, Philips managed to create the most informative menu. Each option has its own description. Some menus are equipped with visual images. Therefore, even an inexperienced user will understand what is present in the settings of one or another function.

There are many settings. As for the image, the user can select multiple styles, “User”, “bright”, “natural”, “Standard”, “Movie” and “Photo”. For the latter, there are two template ISF. The most optimal for everyday use is the mode of “Cinema”. I took advantage of them during testing.

Settings 48PFS8209 / 60 allow you to change the gamma (8 positions) and color temperature (4 presets). There are “home-made” for contrast. The device is equipped with an optical sensor, so it can automatically adjust the brightness depending on the environment.

TV has by several image enhancement technology. Prisutsvuet three preset color improvement: minimum, medium and maximum. Perfect Contrast function name speaks for itself. For best playback pictures are functions reduce defects and noise reduction. For best results with dynamic scenes are also provided technology and Perfect Natural Motion Clear LCD. Let me remind you that the parameter Perfect Motion Rate 800 Hz. Not a record figure, but still.

For more clarity, the TV was tested in three modes. First – using preset “Cinema”, but without activating additional image enhancement technologies. The second – in the same “Cinema”, but with maximum color enhancement mode. The third – with minimal calibration implemented in the form of increased gamma characteristics by three points.

In all three cases, the model 48PFS8209 / 60 showed excellent contrast – 4500: 1! This is a very decent rate. The average deviation for gray scale in the first case was 2.18, in the second – 3.74, while the third – 1.98. Values ​​less than unity can be considered ideal. Anything below three – good. As you can see, the maximum activation mode only improve the color of the worse affected the image.

The manufacturer claims the brightness level of 450 cd / m 2 . During testing, this figure was confirmed. So bright enough to without any problems interacting with the TV during the day.

In all three modes of testing 48PFS8209 / 60 showed an increased color gamut. Although the shape he has been very bizarre.

In the first mode gamma was 2.18, in the second – 2.21. Increasing the scale by three points, this figure rose to a value of 2.38. Let me remind you that the increased scale leads to darkening of the image, decrease – a clarification. Ideal parameters are values ​​in the range between 2,2 and 2,4.

If the primary colors red and green behave consistently (lines with some amendments are in the vicinity of the reference value), the blue in all three modes stands out. The average error in the test Color Checker with 24-color pattern in the first case was 2.18, in the second – 2.46, while the third – 2.04. Not perfect, but good results.

The optimal parameters of temperature, close to the reference value 6500K, was achieved after manual calibration.

In 48PFS8209 / 60 were quite good viewing angles. In dynamic scenes without activation technology Perfect Natural Motion and Clear LCD device demonstrated standard results – 300 lines. But with the use of these functions, this parameter rose to a value of 750 lines. However, no unpleasant effects and artifacts were noticed.

As for working with content, the built-in 48PFS8209 / 60 iron is quite qualitatively reproduces the video format SD. Upscaling to 48 inches works well.

In general, the factory setting of the TV is made on a good, though not the ideal level. I note that the use of embedded technology to optimize the image may not always for the better affect the quality of the image issued.

About the built-in note 48PFS8209 / 60 nothing special to say. Yes, the TV has a subsystem 2.1 format, but naive to expect from her at least some digestible sound. Too slim. Of course, it is best to purchase a couple of 48PFS8209 / 60 discrete speakers. In addition, the device supports wireless audio connection.

 & # x41D; & # x430; & # x441; & # x442; & # x440; & # x43E; & # x439; & # x43A; & # x438; & # x437; & # x432; & # x443; & # x43A; & # x430; & # x443; Philips 48PFS8209 / 60

Conclusion

In my view, the emergence of Android on TV – it’s good practice. The presence of Google’s operating system can significantly extend the functionality of the device. Mainly due to the possibility to install additional software – to your taste and preferences. In fact, the presence of Android makes the TV in full-fledged computer, because it can be seamlessly connect a keyboard, mouse, and even a gamepad. In this competitive model in 48PFS8209 / 60 has a serious limitation. Built-in memory only 1.6 GB.

In general, in terms of functionality claims to have tested the unit a bit. TV has a large number of options and technologies. Supported not only by classical management by remote control, and voice, as well as management by means of gestures. Software component works very quickly. And of annoying, I note that the built-in player managed to not reproduce any content.

Finally, the model 48PFS8209 / 60 has a good factory calibration. Testing has shown that television has a delightful contrast and color reproduction increased.
