Not so Good, Not so Bad January 4, 2006 M. Kurapati (Fallschurch, VA United States) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this TV in philips outlet for 750$. Used it for less than month now.
Pros
----
1. Cheap, inexpensive, TV for bedrooms or kitchen.
2. Picture quality seemed ok with HD , so far.
3. Look and Feel of the TV is good.
Cons
----
1. Only one HD-Analog connection (Component to VGA)
* Beware of this, though the TV has component input, its not HD Capable unlike all other TVs. Philips gave a special Component to VGA cord, which can be used for regular dvd player progressive scan(480p).
2. Only one HD-Digital connection (HDMI)
3. Though the TV says 16:9, I can only see 15:9 in wide screen format.
4. Black levels are not as dark, it may be scenario with all LCD TVs. Plasmas has dark black levels.
5. Poor and long waiting on customer service. I think philips should consider outsourcing customer service, instead of torturing customers with long waits.
6. Very badly packaged, so open the package cautiously.
7. Wall mountable is included, but it is not tiltable.
8. Very very annoyingly poorly written manual, dont expect anything from it.
Great deal while it lasted! August 30, 2005 D. Flint 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I ordered and received the model off the Philips outlet store $999 - $200 discount which I consider a very good deal. The set arrived quickly and in good condition.
None of the accessories other than a stand were included (ac cord, remote control, cables and wall mount) with the original shipment. A call to Phillips customer support got a quick response that they will send the items as the become available. The ac cord arrived in two days with a packing slip stating stand and remote are back-ordered. The wall mount is not available, but I would want a tilting one if I were to wall mount.
The stand they shipped originally was for a much bigger tv.
If Philips comes thru with their promise I will remain happy.
I will echo the statements by other customers. This is not the ideal hdtv (picture, connections, etc.) but an excellent set for $800.
