Customer Reviews
Works great
I got this TV a few days ago and it works great. It picked up some
of the basic HD channels on Comcast cable without a converter box
(thanks to the QAM tuner).
The unit is stylish and thin, with a tilting base. The glossy finish
is a nice touch and makes the frame seem smaller than it is. The
speakers are on the bottom of the unit making it less wide, and they
sound good too.
Powered off there is no Stand By light and the ON indicator light is
not obtrusive. The remore is average sized and is not excessive with
the buttons, only the ones you need and its easy to figure out where
they are in the dark.
If you can get this TV in the sub $250 range, it is a great deal.
I have two cons with this TV, and if they were not present this TV
would be 5/5...
-At the top and the bottom of the screen the LCD Back light bleeds
through the black forming a glowing white area at the edges of the
screen
-There is no On/Off timer so you can set it to come on in the
morning and then turn off, there is only a sleep timer.
When it works it works good
I gave this to my wife for Christmas. After about i month it would
not turn on. My wife called Phillips and they sent out a new TV. After 1
1/2 weeks the new one does the same thing. If they are unplugged for a
while they turn on and remember all of the settings. When it works, it
looks and sounds good. Setup was very easy and it detected the 10
digital stations we get from cable. Rather than get another problem tv
sent to us I may just plug it in to a power strip and turn it off and on
from that. The TV does have a sleep timer. Knowing what I know now, I
would not buy this again or recommend it to anyone else.
Not worth the hassle....
My fiance and I just bought this TV from Walmart just before
Thanksgiving, not even 2 weeks after the purchase the TV started acting
up. It would just decide to not turn on. We looked on Philips' website
for help, their answer was that the TV needed to be in standby mode
(yellow light). When you turn it on there should be a green light. Not
only did our TV only display a blue light, it was never yellow or
green... we called Philips, they asked us to unplug it then asked for
our address so that they can send a different one. The TV they sent was a
scuffed up refurb. Two days later, that one does the same darn thing.
Called them yet again, they send us another one. Not only did we have a
problem with the sets, we're now having issues with the customer
service. They expect us to send the sets back and we'd have to drive
over 40 miles to get to a FedEx drop point to send it back because they
issued the wrong FedEx labels for the free shipping. The woman we talked
to at Philips said that she would e-mail us the label and call us in
the morning to give us more instructions-She never even called back and
it has been over 2 days! We're just glad that we still have the original
set and receipt so we can trade it back in at Walmart and upgrade to a
TV that works!
If the first 3 sets don't work, this model obviously has something
major wrong with it. They don't even have good enough repair shops to
fix them without damaging the overall appearance of the TV. The customer
service is poor and they don't even walk you through the problem, they
just try to fix it by sending a refurb without giving you the proper
labels to send back the other defective TV.
Don't bother with this TV, or Philips for that matter... Its not
worth the hassle!!!
