Philips Launches 100-Inch Ambilight TV With AmbiScape Lighting, Priced at €4,300 in Europe

Philips 100-inch Ambilight TV, Digi Mart USA News: Philips has launched a 100-inch version of its The One TV, the first Ambilight television sold at that size and the largest screen the brand has offered. The model, 100PQS9001, is available in Europe with a €4,300 list price, according to a publisher report by Notebookcheck that was not independently verified.

TP Vision, which makes Philips TVs in Europe, built the set around a 4K QLED LCD panel with a direct LED backlight rather than miniLED. Philips’ 7th Gen P5 processor handles picture processing, and the company quotes refresh rates of up to 144Hz.

Four HDMI 2.1 ports are included for consoles and gaming PCs.

Ambilight LEDs run along three sides of the frame and project on-screen colors onto the wall behind the TV. The set also supports AmbiScape, a feature Philips introduced this year, which syncs the effect with wireless smart lights from Philips Hue, IKEA and WiZ.

The TV supports Dolby Vision 2, HDR10 and HDR10+, and decodes Dolby Atmos and DTS:X audio. It runs Titan OS, which replaced Google TV across the Philips lineup this year, and works with Apple Home, Google Home and Matter, with Alexa built in.

Without its stand, the TV measures 222.7 x 127.1 x 8.9 cm, and it weighs 46.7 kg with the stand fitted. It carries an F energy rating for SDR content.

Philips first revealed the 100-inch model in March at its Berlin launch event and showed it again at IFA in September, where it was billed as the “world’s largest Ambilight TV.” The 85-inch and 100-inch sizes were scheduled for release from October, depending on the country. The One range also comes in 43, 50, 55, 65, 75 and 85-inch sizes.

For now, the 100-inch model is sold only in Europe. The One range is also available in the UK, but Philips has not confirmed whether the largest size will follow there.

In North America, Skyworth builds Philips-branded TVs under license and offers a separate lineup.
