5.0 out of 5 stars Great TV, great image, July 22, 2008

By	Marcio Barreto (El Paso, Texas) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I just bought this tv and had it installed yesterday! I was unsure wheter my TV rack would hold it (it was build to hold a 42"), but it's doing just fine! This TV actually feel almost as heavy as my 2007 42", which I suppose is due to new materials used.

The instalation is a breeze. It comes with a connections guide (in case you need one), and taking it out of the box couldn't be easier. You might think that getting a 52" tv out of the box might be something short of a suicidal thing, but it's actually very very easy! The whole box comes out from the top, leavint the TV sitting neatly on it's stand on the floor, ready to be picked up and be placed wherever.

After you plug it in, a settings assistant comes up, and helps you set up the picture the way you like it, without messing with numbers or complicated settings. You just look at which of the 2 pictures shown you like better, and select it. Do this 5 times, and you're set. Off course, you can edit all the little details later.

Installing all the channels took around 2-3 minutes, and I have about 200 channels, between digital and analog. No issues here.

It's also nice and fast to change channels. Like that. Some TVs take a long time to change channels, don't know why.

The picture is GREAT. If you've never seen the image of a 1080p 120hz TV before, check it out. Watching a HD movie on this is as good as it gets, and in my opinion, the quality beats other more expensive brands. Another nice feature is that the speakers are all in the back, so you don't see them, but they actually sound as good as if they were right there. Again, not sure how they do this.

All and all, very happy with this TV. Recommend for anyone who wants a nice movie experience at home, or enjoy playing Tennis with their Wii, and always complain that 42" "just isn't enough" :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Bring TV viewing to life!, September 16, 2008

By	katrina2000 "horrorfanatik" (North Carolina) - See all my reviews

We bought this television from the Navy Exchange in April 2008, before it really went into production. We waited 4 months for its arrival, and it was worth every minute of that wait. The natural motion processors make the picture so realistic that it's like you're looking through a window at real people. The perfect pixel system gives you a picture that's so clear, you won't ever be able to watch a plain tv again. There are enough personalized settings that, no matter what your taste, you'll be able to set the picture up exactly the way you like it.

We did have one small problem with the set: It would randomly turn itself off. The set came right back on every time, but it was a real pain. We called the support number listed on the website and were pleased to find an easy fix. Steve, the support guy, gave us a downloadable file to upgrade the tv's software. We put it on a memory stick, popped it into the USB port of the tv, and it automatically upgraded the tv without any problems at all. The problem is gone now and we're back to watching tv with a smile.

Please note that these newer tv's require software updates from time to time. You're responsible for keeping it upgraded, so check back frequently. If you do need to call the nice people at Philips, please be sure to have your model and serial number handy. It makes things a lot easier.Philips 52PFL7403D/27 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV

5.0 out of 5 stars Philips hits a home run!, August 24, 2008

By	S. Jones "Wolfie" (California, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I received the Philips 52" 120Hz LCD TV yesterday morning and I have to say I am very pleased with my purchase. It has loads of connectors for all your toys and was so simple to setup, the interface is very intuitive. I watched movies, TV and played games on it for 16 hours straight yesterday. I have my upconvert DVD player, Blueray, PS3 and PC connected to this TV and all I can say is WOW. Quality materials, beautiful design and the picture and sound are amazing! The hidden 4 speakers do a great job (I couldn't believe it). The picture quality is amazing, brings all my DVD's to the next level, blueray is out of this world, PS3 is a dream on this thing! Black levels are excellent, no artifacting during PC gameplay, this TV is fast enough to keep up and beyond!

This TV is feature packed, unbelievable value for money, has fully adjustable settings, 2ms response, 33,000:1 contrast, 120 Hz, etc. I have absolutely no complaints, I couldn't be happier! If you are thinking of a 52" LCD and this is in your budget then don't think about it, buy it! You won't be sorry!
