A Philips 46PFL5706/F7 Review

The Philips 46PFL5706/F7 features a 47 inch LCD screen with HD capabilities and top notch resolution. HD channels and sport games are always delivered to the viewer in complete clarity thanks to this television’s 1080p and 120Hz display as well as its natural motion technology. If you have not invested in some serious home theater speakers, you will love how great the built-in surround sound speakers sound on this set. You can link it to your favorite multi-media sources thanks to its four HDMI ports.

Top Quality Viewing Experience

The Philips 46PFL5706/F7 has 120Hz which means that no matter how fast your favorite action scene is or how quickly a sports player moves, you will never see a judder or a jerky shot. It also has a huge color spectrum, and the colors look very realistic. The Matte screen reduces any potential glare. I love this feature as I have this TV located in a room with a lot of windows. Best of all, it produces this picture without creating a drain on your electric bill. It even has an optional feature that can reduce the amount of power that it consumes.

Easy to Hook-up Auxiliary Devices

I love that the Philips 46PFL5706/F7 has enough ports for all of my and my family’s devices. It has four HDMI ports, four A/V ports, an S-Video, and a USB. Because I am a Mac addict, I had to buy a DVI-HDMI cable so that I could connect my laptop to the TV. I had to call Philips customer support line as I was having trouble connecting the two devices. The staff member that I spoke with was easy to understand and very supportive. In fact, I have always had satisfactory experiences with their tech support staff.

Customer Reviews and Scores
When you visit the Amazon website, you get the chance to read about real buyer’s experiences with the Philips 46PFL5706/F7. There are more reviews added to the site everyday, but at the time of this writing, there were six reviews on Amazon. Five of the reviewers gave this television a five star rating, and one reviewer gave it a four star rating.

Because the reviewers felt so positively about this television, they really did not describe too many negative things about this television. However, one user was slightly troubled that it took two people to lift the television out of the box. However, he also commended the designers for their clever box design.

Another reviewer claimed that because of the matte screen, the viewers of this television do not get the full impact of its color contrast capabilities. The television has a 1 to 50,000 color contrast ratio. However, this ratio would actually be more dramatic if it did not have a matte screen. On the other hand, the matte screen allows users like me to place the TV in a room full of windows without worrying about glare.

Conclusion
At just over $1,000, the Philips 46PFL5706/F7 is a great investment in your home entertainment system. It can even be purchased for a much lower price when the buyer opts to also purchase a subscription to certain wireless net TV services. When purchased from Amazon, the buyer can be assured that they are getting the best deal thanks to Amazon’s lowest price program, their optional customer financing, and their frequent free shipping offers.
