Philips 43" Class 7875 Series 4K UltraHD Ambilight Roku Smart TV

We had a 32" TV in on of our kids' rooms, and it broke, so I ordered this 43" TV to replace it, because it's a good size for a kids TV and they are already familiar with the Roku system. When the order was placed, I was a bit nervous, because the tracking said it was coming from across the country, and I've seen reviews (on other TVs at other websites) about TVs not surviving delivery across town, never mind across several states. But the TV arrived a few days earlier than expected and was in perfect condition out of the box. Super easy to set up with the existing Roku account, and the setup gives you the option to add apps you already have accounts for. The TV is super light weight. The legs are sturdy and for this 43" TV, they are 30" apart, in case you need put it on a shorter surface. For this price point ($229 when I ordered it): -The picture is superb. I watched a couple of movies and a TV show after I set it up to test it out. Usually TVs in ths price range are merely adequate for casual viewing, but this one is way better than expected in terms of clarity. I set it to movie mode, and in my opinion, everything looks as it should. -The viewing angles are really good. From about 6 feet away at a 45 degree angle, I couldn't notice any washing out of the colors or other unnatural dimming/dulling of the image from the sides. TV snobs might disagree, but trust me, this one is fine. -The sound quality is good enough for a kids room. The ambilight feature is really cool. I've seen some video reviews where they say it's kind of gimmicky, but if that's true, then it's a cool gimmick, because it actually does feel a bit more immersive, because it pushes some of the on screen lighting and colors into the background of the TV. Bonus, you can adjust the ambilight feature down in increments of 10%. I set this one to 50% and it's stll plenty immersive. You can also turn the ambilight feature off, completely, if you want. I'm generally not a fan of the Roku remote controls, because I always accidentally adjust the volume, since the volume toggle is on the side. The remote does everything it needs to do for this TV, though, and the kids are fine with it - they just keep losing remotes, but the Roku remote for our old TV works with this, and so do all the spare Roku remotes we have (with no microphone button, because this TV does not have the voice control feature). We are running a Wifi-6 router and had no issues with connectivity, load times/buffering, etc. Everything functions quickly, even skipping forward or rewinding, and navigating menus and apps with minimal (almost no) delay. If you are shopping for a 43" TV, especially for a kids room, don't overlook this set. The kids will enjoy the ambilight feature, for sure. I want to get another one for my room, now. Good news is that the 50" and 55" versions are available for local pick-up. A 43" Roku TV with ambilight at this price point and quality is hard to beat.
