Customer Reviews
PIECE OF JUNK and WORTHLESS WARRANTY!
I purchased one of these TVs from Sam's Club in May of 2009. Once I
brought it home and hooked it up I found that the speakers would cut
out from time to time. I contacted the Philips customer service hotline
and had a technician in my house by the beginning of October!
Unfortunately, Philips had contracted their repair services to a moron
that didn't know anything about the warranty process. After waiting 2
weeks for the original repairman to move my claim along, I decided to
contact Philips again. Ultimately, Philips put me in touch with a
repair shop about an hour away from my home. Once they came out to my
house they replaced the Audio/Visual board in the TV and told me it
would be fine.
The next day my wife and I watched a movie. The sound was working;
however, the TV had difficulty turning on. I had to fiddle with the
power button for up to 10 minutes to get the TV to come on! I called
Philips and the repair shop to arrange for another repair. The repairman
came to my home, disassembled the TV, and found out the A/V board they
had installed was bad. In addition, on
e of the speakers had blown a
capacitor and destroyed the speaker cone! The repairman said he would
have to order the speakers as a replaceable unit and come back next week
to do the installation.
By this time it is the end of November and I had already spoken to
15 different people at the Philips customer service hotline (I wrote
down everyone's name). Finally, Philips told me that they would give me
a "refurbished" TV in exchange for the piece of junk instead of having
the repairman schedule another service call. The only problem is that I
have to wait 2 to 3 weeks for shipping. Or I can give them my credit
card number so they can ship me the "refurbished" TV immediately. Once I
receive the "refurbished" TV I can send them the piece of junk and they
will remove the hold on my credit card.
I decided to ship the piece of junk to them and wait for the
"refurbished" TV. While I wait for the freight company to come pick up
my piece of junk I decided to watch a movie without sound going through
the TV. I watched about 1/2 an hour of a movie and the screen turned
pink and the TV shut off. I can't turn it back on! I tried for over
half an hour!
I called customer service rep number 16 to give him and update on my
piece of junk. Of course, he can't help me and tells me that I
probably won't even get an apology letter I requested from his
supervisor or company.
Now I have a 47" piece of plastic that cost me $1000. I took it off
of the entertainment center and put it on the ground. I hope my dogs
chew on it. That would be ABOVE the quality of this piece of junk. I
get to wait 3 to 4 weeks for a "refurbished" TV. I asked for my money
back but Philips said they can't do that at this time. I would have to
receive the "refurbished" TV and it would have to be broken as well for
me to get my money back. I am never buying another Philips product in
my life. EVER!
Great Value
Purchased this TV recently at Costco and find it to be a great
value. Picture is nice and clear, great sound, overall happy with the
purchase especially for the price.
Great television
I've had this TV for about a month and it's been great. Its a
fantastic size, the sound is great, perfect HD picture, and you can see
it very clearly from even wide angles (which a lot of LCDs do not do
well). I read some reviews that the black contrast was not great on
this set, and I have noticed that in some dimly lit scenes, but it has
not been a very big noticeable problem. Overall, for the price I paid, I
feel like I made an investment in a great big-screen TV
