What's Philips Ambilight?

Integrated into the edges of an Philips Ambilight TV you'll find rows of LED lamps. Televisions with Ambilight have 3-sided or 4-sided Ambilight. This means the TV lights up 3 or 4 edges. You can set up the TV's lamps via various modes. If you select the screen mode, the LED lamps light up in the colors of the screens. In music mode, the lighting moves along with the action on the screen. For example, the wall colors red from left to right when a red Ferrari races past on the screen.

In addition to televisions, the Philips Fidelio FS1 rear speakers also have Ambilight. In this case, the Ambilight in the Fidelio FS1 is an extension of the Ambilight of the television. You can place the speakers behind your listening position, so you're surrounded by sound. This way, you also have light around you with the rear speakers. Combine these speakers with a Philips soundbar and subwoofer for a complete home cinema experience.

Ambilight is a striking feature on your TV and it offers an extra dimension to your viewing experience. There are also practical advantages. In a dark the room, the screen is less straining on your eyes, thanks to the subtle transition from dark to light. The screen appears bigger, which leads to a more immersive experience when watching a movie or series. In 'Warm White' mode, the contrast is optically improved. The white light widens your pupils, allowing the TV's light to register better.
