Philips PFL9664 (42",47") Reviews

If ever there were a TV to warm the cockles, the 47-inch, 1080p 47PFL9664H/12 LCD TV is it. It's impressively slender and attractive, it's packed with more features than you'll ever use, and it delivers one of the best AV performances we've ever seen ...

Looks great ; picture quality is mesmerisingly good with standard- as well as high-definition material ; sound quality is much better than that of most ultra-thin TVs ; has more features than you&apos ; ll ever use ; allows full Internet access

Expensive ; requires dedicated picture tweaking to keep getting the very best out of it

After immediately warming our cockles with its impressively slender design and eye-catching Ambilight system, the Philips 47PFL9664H/12 blew us away with one of the best all-round AV performances we've seen from any LCD TV to date

The 42PFL9664 is one of Philips' top LCD TVs and it's easy to see why.

This sleek, specced-up HD TV looks the business - so has Philips finally found some consistency?

Great detail levels, motion tracking and sound. Hefty build. Fine ergonomics and finish

Initial setup drags on a bit. Hit-and-miss DVD upscaling. Dark scenes could be more explicit
