 Neat design, top quality picture and sound |

| Although Philips seem to be less and less visible in the high street, this is a top quality product, packaged in perhaps the neatest design of the current LCD TVs. I am really not sure what the problem is with Philips. I have met many of their engineers and designers through my work and they include the best in the world. It seems to be an issue with marketing and top-level management. Anyway, I sought this one out because my own 7.... series has done me proud for a year or more, and I wanted a slightly less expensive TV of similar quality for my mother. As with mine, it was easy to set up, but with an even cleaner design than my just over a year old model. Maybe Philips needs to come up with a new brand name. But this TV is a star and really _ought_ to be more visible as one of the market leaders. |
Superb set

| Admittedly, I don't buy a different tv every month. However, even without lots of comparisons to go by, I find this Philips set quite superb: the design is excellent; the connectivity is very good; the sharpness and clarity of the picture is magnificent; the sound (I have to disagree with reviewers who found it poor) first rate. I was debating a purchase of either this Philips or a similarly priced Panasonic. I'm sure the Panasonic is also top notch, but I have no regrets whatever about my choice. If you are wobbling between this set and another, have no fear of choosing the Philips. |
love it

this is a great tv set. i have owned it for 8 months now so i have used it enough to give a fair and thorough review.
1. Picture. the picture is very, very good! it has 1080p input for the ps3, 360, bluray and upscaling dvd etc. and it also supports 24fps on bluray which is good. the contrast is very good and looks breathtaking on the opening scene of the dark knight on bluray (you'll know the scene im on about when you see it ;]). the motion engine on this tv also works surprisingly well i haven't seen any motionblur yet apart from when i player fifa 08 (this happens on all of the HD TV's i have seen)
2. Sound. like another reviewer said the sound is top notch. it has virtual surround sound and lots of ps3 games, blurays, dvds and xbox 360 games are output in virtual dolby surround sound. it is so good it has actually made me hold out for another year before buying a 5.1 cinema system!
3. Connections. this tv has alot of very useful inputs. it has 4 HDMI ports, a component input (supports 1080p), s-video input, 2 scarts, USB, composite. the only inputs i use are HDMI and component. they both give a top quality picture in 1080p input (HDMI is slightly better). and the HDMI gives virtual dolby surround sound, component gives digital stereo which is pretty good. this tv also has a SPDIF coaxial output, and the standard L+R stereo output. 2 bad things about the connections are no VGA for easy connection to a laptop or pc (HDMI is better anyway but my laptop doesn't have it) and a SPDIF optical output would be better because it supported by way more amps and cinema systems.
the tv looks very attractive and the picture is as good as my uncle's 50" panasonic 1080p plasma (new TV but not sure which model) but this tv's sound is better. this philips is only just beaten by my grandfather's sony bravia 40" w5500 on picture quality (mainly because of the sony's motionflow) but it beats his tv for sound. that is a fair opinion by 4 people's comments not just mine.
All in all this TV is very good. my main uses are 360, ps3, bluray, and upscaled dvd. these 4 features all work absolutely brilliantly. freeview isnt available in my area so i cant comment on that. the only little niggles i have are - no VGA (PC input is supported through HDMI though), coaxial instead of optical (optical is more widespread). and i don't think it supports philips easylink. this is just like bravia sync where you can control all of your HDMI devices with just 1 remote. like i said though all in all a great TV and i am very glad i picked this over the sony 32v4000! |
Great!

| People should buy more Philips TV's in my opinion. This is a brilliant tele and when watching HD transmissions, the picture is simply unbeatable. Great with an upscaling DVD player (only a complete nerd would be able to distinquish between other TV's), and gaming through a 360 is stunning. Go get one! |
