I like the picture produced by this product - very clear and bright. The sound created by the two 15-watts back-facing speakers were adequate, I never had to turn up the volume more than half over the maximum value, but of course a home theater with sub-woofer is required for serious movie fanatics.
I would give a higher rating for this tv except for the following -
It had to be sent out for repair a month and a half after I received it. The problem was the infrared receiver had to be replaced - otherwise the tv would not respond to the remote control.
While the menu system is active, you cannot see the video image because the menus are not transparent.
Otherwise I'm happy with the set.

I'm very happy with it. Great picture, great sound. Watching blu-ray discs on it blows me away.

Philips will not produce HDTV any longer for the US and has sold the division to an obscure company that will takeover the production.
This set has created a lot of buzz when it went out because there were a lot of issues. What good about that will you tell? the good thing is that they have fixed the issues (banding, problem with format, auto power off).
One point that has never suffered from any problem was the image quality largely on par with the top brand (even better but i dont want to get flammed by samsung owners).
So this is now a flawless 120hz hdtv with a superb image quality (black are superb). I especially like the image you got using the power saver mode. This version does not have the ambilight ( that i dislike, i have seen many of them in Europe where Philips is a well know brand)
it fits perfectly with a ps3 (yes it does 24p) and the set is beautiful. so buy it when you still can.

This is one of the most impressive images on a flat screen I have seen We are fortunate enough to own a Panasonic 50 inch Vierra 1080p plasma, a very new Sony 40 LCD 1080p 60 hz, a vizio (50 and 32 1080i) and now this. Connected to a Direct TV HD signal via HDMI it is the most impressive, clear, life like picture of any of the above tvs with similar sources/inputs. It has very good speakers, not great, but better than any other in our house.
Wonderful value. It has a remote of lesser feeling quality, but it works fine.
Great Value. It may need a firmware to update bring it to its best. These are easy to do, simply download the update onto a memory sitck via usb and connect it to the tv via the usb input. Enjoy, I will look at philips first next purchase.

The picture quality is definetly 5 stars. I do not have cable or satellite and am in awe of the picture quality I get from the digital stations from my antenna. Watching DVD movies with an HDMI compatible player was phenomenal. If you just need to have the best picture for watching TV, sports, movies this is great.
The reason I gave it four stars.
1. Remote : Very cheapish for the price of the TV. It can not be programmed to run anything but your TV. There are programmable remotes out there for around $35 so this is not the main reason.
2. Switching channels : Using the remote, when you type in the channel you want to go to the numbers on the screen are very small for such a large screen size. Also, when just using the channel up button or down button it takes a little time (<1s) to "get the picture" but the channel does not show up on the screen until the picture does.
3. Menu : Is easy to navigate
4. Output: There is no output of video, so I can not record shows onto a VCR. Also the output for sound is one digital RCA type (outputs great dolby 5.1 from digital broadcast TV), so you better make sure your reciever has this on it for your surround sound system. Mine had it for my DVD player and other components, but not for TV. One plus here is that I can watch the TV, sound comes into my reciever on the DVD setting, and when I put a DVD in to play I do not have to switch the reciever to DVD. That actually is pretty great.
5. Options : This is why I gave it 4 stars. It finds station great and labels them accordingly with the call letters of the station. Bad thing is I want to lable them so I know I am watching NBC, CBS, ABC. You get the picture. I would have loved to name them NBC-1, so I know where my antenna is supposed to point to get these stations. Not a bad minus but my old analog television even had this.
