3 out of 5 stars No Sound.   March 9, 2010
A. Jones
The picture sucks so bad and the sound goes out. This TV irritates me so much. Philips will be hearing from me tomorrow, I've called twice.


1 out of 5 stars Dead in less than 24 hours!!!   March 4, 2010
Eric N. Johnson (Cincinnati, OH)
Bought this TV, set it up without many problems and watched for 1 hour. Turned it on the next morning and watched for 1 hour, then tried to turn it on for a third time and there was NO PICTURE OR SOUND!! There were only whitish/gray lines on the screen... absolutely no picture no matter what we tried. It's hard to believe a TV like this would die in less than one day. Will return it and will NEVER BUY ANOTHER PHILIPS AGAIN!!! Back to Sony, where we know we're getting a quality television.


3 out of 5 stars Issues but apparently resolved by Firmware Update   February 27, 2010
J. Dingus
I've been looking for LCD TV's all of February, purchased a Sanyo from Walmar on 2/6 which lost sound and video after 15 days. Returned easily, thanks to Walmart's 90 day return policy. I'm leary of anything from HHGregg since they only have 14 day return policy or an extended warranty for $199.00! Best buy is 30 days return. I decided to stick with Walmart / Sam's club / Target for 90 day return. Found this at Target for $649.00. Got it home, powered it on, and ..... no signal on HDMI1,2,3, Video 1,2 or Cable. Mucked with settings finally rebooted and presto.... picture and sound. Turned off for the night, next morning... no sound on any. Muched with settings, reset etc. Nothing. I finally downloaded the firmware update from Phillips and that fixed the issue. I'm going to give it 30 days but will return it if I have any problems and go with a different brand.

Features are good, picture and sound are great. No problem if they keep working.



1 out of 5 stars Works for 2 years then black screen   February 15, 2010
Pissed in NY (Mount Vernon, NY)
2 out of 3 found this review helpful

"If you purchase Philips tv's, you'll be sorry. They last 2 years then you get a black screen. Philips will claim that there's no issues with their tv's but if you google "problems with Philips tv's", you'll see all the problems with them after 2 years. I spent $1100. on a 42" LCD and it lasted 2 years. They won't help me and to have a repair service look at it, it's $350.00 and they state that it will happen again. Wasted money that I can't afford. Don't say you haven't been warned."


5 out of 5 stars Great TV & setup   February 3, 2010
Laine Agee (MEMPHIS, TN, US)
When the tv came, the delivery man not only delivered it, he unpacked it and set it up for me.
The tv is great! I especially like the fact that the commercials are not louder than the tv shows!
