According to our television expert
The Philips 43PUS6501 is an UHD television with a 43-inch screen size. Ambilight illuminates the wall behind the TV in the colors of the image on 2 sides. This is easier on your eyes when watching TV in the dark and it makes watching TV a more special experience. The 100Hz refresh rate ensures smooth display of fast-moving images, so you won't miss any of the movements on screen. Android TV provides a user-friendly way to access videos, games, and the internet. It also lets you watch missed programs.

I've had this TV in my living room for a few days now and I'm definitely happy with it. When I sit on the couch with about 3 meters between me and the device, I think a 43-inch screen is certainly not too small. Ok, I come from a 32 inch TV and 43 inch is really a lot bigger.
I think the design is neat, the feet on both sides are especially beautiful. It's something different than a central foot as I often see.
The image is really super sharp with HD content. Upscaling from full HD to 4K works surprisingly well. With non-HD content you can see
Ambilight really adds a lot to the viewing experience in my opinion. My previous device also had it and I immediately miss it when I'm watching TV on someone else who doesn't have it.
The 100Hz panel is very nice for faster images that remain smooth and sharp.
The sound is moderate what comes out of the device. Can't go very hard and clicks a bit flat. So I connected the TV to my amplifier via an optical cable. This was my plan in the beginning so the lesser sound of the device itself was not a deal breaker for me.
You can start Netflix with a simple press of the Netflix button on the remote control. Playing Netflix content over WiFi works fine. Didn't experience any hiccups. Note: I have connected the TV to the 5GHz band. So unfortunately I can't tell you anything about how Netflix works on the 2.4GHz band.

Very nice TV, especially considering the price. The smart functions work better than expected. Navigating through Netflix, for example, is quick and you can easily look up titles with the keyboard on the back of the remote control. The TV displays beautiful colors (for an LED in this price range) and with the Ambilight lighting you have subtle lighting while watching a movie. The images move quite smoothly, although this is sometimes so smooth that it feels a bit unnatural. Backlight bleeding can also be seen with a black image. In other words, the screen is not completely evenly black, but in some places a bit lighter than in others.
