Unique Ambilight Lighting System – Three Sides
The Ambilight system has been the hallmark of Philips TVs for many years and a very large number of users choose monitors of this brand precisely because of this technology. Ambilight3 is an improved version of the original backlight that was only two-sided. Now we have 3 zones of LED backlight, which are located on the left, top and right edges behind the TV and can display many visual effects, including expanding what we see on the screen, uniform color or responding to the audio track.
The LEDs used in the latest Ambilight TVs are sharper, brighter and can display more saturated colors due to the removal of the plastic tape that covered the LEDs in previous versions.
Philips is the only manufacturer in the market that offers such a solution in its TVs.
In the TV options there is a clip with which we can configure Ambilight in different ways, so everyone will find something for themselves:

We can configure parameters such as the intensity and color of the backlight or choose one of the available dynamic effects, which can, for example, follow on-screen actions, interact with the soundtrack, or display a country flag (something for fans of cheer ):
A very beautiful solution is the ability to adjust the color of the wall behind the TV, on the basis of which the system will select color parameters to obtain the most pleasing effect:
Due to the multitude of system settings options, we can also use a solid white color, which improves viewing comfort and simulates studio conditions without distracting from the watched movie:
