Fantastic evening as always, thank you Phil, Steve and the AVF Team, Craig, Philips/ TPV and Abbey Road (I think that's it!)
A great location - As fair as could possibly be, the TV's were masked and taped off, hidden between each clip, and really proved how close they all are in performance - expertly calibrated and made fair by Phil and Steve.
A good selection of clips, pushing the processing past break point at times, but there naturally had to be one winner, with Philips at 36% of the combined vote I recall - deserved after seeing the processors work their magic in session 2.
The surprising poor performance of Sony in 4th, LG 3rd, Pana 2nd - both the LG and Sony really didn't like the panning motion shot.
My takeaway - the differences most of the time are fine margins, they're all damn good - and calibrated film-maker mode, virtually undistinguishable!
The P5 clearly has some tricks up its sleeve, and it was great to see Ambilight a good few years after I had last - incredible companion to the bezel-less OLED frame. Equally impressive speaker too.
Great to meet the fellow AVF'ers again, great to see the state of play this year - bring on 2022!
