Is this TV good for gaming?

It handles casual gaming fine, but the 60 Hz panel and lack of HDMI 2.1 features make it a weak choice for fast competitive play on a PS5 or Xbox Series X.

Does it have Google Assistant built in?

Yes. Google Assistant is built into the Google TV platform, so you can use voice search and control compatible smart home devices from the remote.

What streaming apps are available?

Google TV supports Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, HBO and most other major services through the Google Play store.

Do I need a soundbar?

Most owners of slim TVs this size add a soundbar for films and music. Bluetooth lets you pair one wirelessly.

Is 43 inches big enough for a living room?

It suits bedrooms, kitchens and small rooms. For a main living room with seating several feet back, a larger screen is usually more comfortable.

Yes, it accepts HDR content, though peak brightness on a 43-inch QLED is modest, so the effect is subtle rather than dramatic.

Our take on the Philips Class QLED 4K UHD Google Smart TV 43-inch

The Philips Class QLED 4K Google TV is a 43-inch flat-screen set with a quantum-dot panel, HDR support and the Google TV smart platform built in. It covers the basics well: Google Assistant voice control, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and the main streaming apps are ready out of the box. Its 60 Hz refresh rate suits everyday viewing, films and casual gaming rather than fast competitive play. Against rivals at this size, it leans on the QLED panel and Google TV interface rather than high frame rates or premium gaming features.
