Input lag in PC and game modes is decent enough for good gaming on 55PUS7502. We tried a few games on PS4 Pro and were satisfied with motion resolution and quick response to our controls.
Sound quality
With a built-in soundbar and woofer in the back, Philips 55PUS7502 sounds above average for the class. Voice is clear, nicely separated on the stereo stage and triple ring technology helps round the lower frequencies into a pleasant sound without distortions at normal levels.
For not too demanding users, 55PUS7502 sound quality will be decent enough for watching the news, TV shows and even movies. However, if you are like us, then an external audio system, ideally consisting of A/V receiver and at least a stereo or multi-channel configuration will help create more compelling home theater atmosphere.

Alternatives
If you are not after Android TV platform, a great alternative is Samsung’s 2016 KS7000/KS8000 series or KS7500 if you want a curved screen. These TVs have higher contrast, narrow viewing angles, but solid processing and better HDR experience (wider color gamut, higher peak luminance).

Tahnks for the review.
I am very interested in this TV because it has the two main things that I looking for, Android and Ambilight but I recognize after seeing the review I’m really worried about the low contrast it has.
So I have a question, the contrast is as bad as it looks or truly may be acceptable?
Thanks in advance.
Maan, and I almost bought this shit… :((((((((
When the hell will they make the perfect TV?? :(
I looked it today. At showroom it has better colour n black than sony’s 8505. I like it, will buy soon. Va panel have bad angel.. We r 5 at home. Ips is better than va.
Hi,
Thank you for great review. I’m little confuced about Philips modelling. 7502 is top of the line with p5 processor but 7272 has local dimming etc. Any change to have this two compared and also screen calibration settings for 7272?
Thank you in advance!
Hi Lauri!
As far as I see specs on this website (https://www.displayspecifications.com/en/model/755fb06), PUS7272 is also IPS TV but with old picture processor, so it does not matter so much that it has local dimming. You can use same tips for adjustment is in the video I made of 7502 as the same type of controls is used.
Hi Darko,
The PUS7502 models recieved the Android 7 update. With this update many bugs are fixed. My model was calibrated using your calibration settings.
But after the update it seems like the colors are not the same as before.
After the update and a clean installation, because my tv automatically went to standby every 10 minutes, i used your calibration settings again to setup my tv. But like i said, the displayed colors are different after the update. If you ask me i find the colors a bit to red. Can you give me an advise?
Thanks a lot!
Pozdrav.
Nedavno upiknuo 49″ model. Nikako da natjeram tipkovnicu remotea da proradi. Jel ima neki trik ili je Android 7.0 odlučio ne supportati, a Philipsa baš boli briga?
HI
How did you found this “black level control was properly working” …where do you you have black control or backlight adjustement” ?
I can’t find such options.
Hi. I just bought 49pus7503 model, this has VA-panel so the settings in your video are not compatible? Or is it?
One small detail that often gets overlooked. There is no way to connect the TV directly to something with a microphone. I tried Bluetooth headsets. the headset jack does not have a microphone, custom remove with included microphone, nothing. That is annoying because google voice always comes up first when searching for something. That, combined with the fact that the remote always ignores your first input, makes it cumbersome to use.
