The European designs of Philips TV & audio products have won three prestigious iF Design Awards 2025, marking a great achievement for the brand.
Philips TV and audio products have once again received international recognition by securing three iF Design Awards 2025, the company proudly announced. This year’s winners are the new premium Philips OLED+910 Ambilight TV, the mid-range Philips OLED 850/860 TV—part of the OLED800 Ambilight series—and the Philips K4200 Kids wireless on-ear headphones. All three products were designed by TP Vision’s European design team, based in Amsterdam.
Since 1954, the iF Product Design Award has been regarded as the highest recognition for outstanding product design worldwide. The 2025 competition attracted nearly 11,000 entries from 66 countries, according to Philips.
Rod White, Chief Design Officer, responded from Amsterdam:
“I would like to personally thank all the expert jury members of the iF Product Design Awards for once again recognizing our commitment to European design as a core value of all Philips TV and audio products. Our distinctive design remains a key differentiating factor for us.”
The 2025 Award Winners
Here’s an overview of the winners and their descriptions, as presented by the manufacturer:
Philips OLED+910 Ambilight TV
Minimalist design with integrated high-quality audio
The Philips OLED+910 is a minimalist-designed TV that combines exceptional picture quality and advanced technology with an elegant aesthetic. The television features the latest META 3.0 OLED technology, including the new primary RGB Tandem panel with a four-layer structure, which enhances the color gamut and brightness while reducing energy consumption.
Building on seven years of successful collaboration with Bowers & Wilkins, the OLED+910 takes premium televisions to the next level with an integrated speaker system from the British audio legends.
The design highlights Philips’ signature ‘pill’-shaped rounded speaker enclosures and sleek aluminum feet.
Despite its high-quality speakers and advanced technology, the TV maintains a subtle and minimalist presence, making it a perfect fit for modern interiors.
The Danish Kvadrat wool-mélange fabric covering the speakers enhances the home-friendly look of the product. Philips also equips this TV with a new remote control that hides secondary buttons, which only light up when needed.
With its Bowers & Wilkins 3.1 sound system and four-sided Ambilight technology, the OLED+910 delivers a uniquely immersive viewing experience.
Philips OLED850 and OLED860 Ambilight TV
Smart European design with a rotatable “soundbar stand”
The Philips OLED850 and OLED860—part of the highly successful OLED800 series—offer outstanding picture and sound quality at a mid-range price point.
The stand design was inspired by user demand for a more seamless soundbar integration.
Philips designed a matching compact soundbar (Philips B8200) that magnetically attaches to the elongated TV stand, creating a flawless visual integration.
Even with the soundbar attached, the TV stand retains its swivel function, allowing users to adjust the viewing angle.
The dark metallic finish of both the TV and soundbar ensures a sleek, unified aesthetic, while a cable cover neatly manages the soundbar’s wiring.
Philips K4200 Kids Wireless On-Ear Headphones
Timeless, durable, and child-friendly design
The Philips K4200 Kids Headphones are designed for children who increasingly appreciate design and aesthetics, while integrated smart technology ensures safe listening.
Unlike traditional children’s headphones, which often use bright pink and blue with exaggerated cartoonish elements, the K4200 adopts a modern, stylish, and durable design.
A glowing ring on the ear cups adds a playful yet not overly childish touch.
The latest 2025 color and style trends were incorporated into the design, resulting in a fresh and eye-catching look.
The headphones also prioritize durability, safety, and ease of use:
- Large, round control buttons on the underside of the ear cups ensure easy operation for kids.
- Smaller ear cups with soft cushions provide a comfortable fit.
- Built to withstand rough handling.
To protect young users’ hearing, the volume is limited to 85 dB. Parents can set variable volume limits via the Philips app, including a special travel mode for added safety.
‘A Well-Deserved Recognition for European Design’
With these three iF Design Awards, Philips TV & Audio once again demonstrates its commitment to European design excellence. The company continues to combine premium aesthetics with high-end technology, making their products stand out in the global market.
