Philips 42PFL3208K / 12 107 cm (42 inch) TV (Full HD, Triple Tuner, Smart TV) (Electronics)

Customer Review

I have now had for many years a 32 inch LG in the bedroom. Now it was about time for a newer, larger part.

As size it should be a 42 "LED, which is not more expensive than EUR 500 - is then while exploring the net I ended up with this model of Philips. (Alternative to a slightly cheaper LG would have been.).

Previously have to say that it also as variant "42PFL3218K / 12" This unit will "42PFL3208K / 12". The latter is only available from 2-3 providers. On request at Philips was told that this is to the same TV device, which is only another Marketed einfahc.

Interestingly, in the variant 3218K / 12 Wireless Adapter while (for SMART TV use), but which was at a price below my limit.

Therefore, I then decided to use the package with the WLAN Adapter :)

Now that I have been able to test nearly 3 weeks, the device, I must say that I have made a good choice.

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------

Plus points:
-----------

-> The device is optically chic with slim frame (even if the depth of the unit does not meet the current Topgeräten).

-> The remote control is clearly structured and not overloaded.

-> The settings menus are visually appealing and designed especially things easy to use, at least to my mind.

-> The picture is very good, even if you have connected a filthy analogue receiver :).

-> The reaction time at the "zap" is, for a device of this price segment, afloat.

-> The setting of the transmitter is not easier or harder than with all other devices.

-> WLAN Stick included (PFL3218K / 12)

-> SMART TV: faster Internet access with all kinds of nice site, such as all the seasons of Stromberg see free, Facebook use, and much more.

-> Fast and easy connection of local networks or mobile devices (eg smartphones and tablets)

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------

Bad points:
------------

-> The sound is typical of most LED / LCD device very thin.

-> Even if now is increasingly via HDMI, you could have the low entry-level device quietly spendieren 2x SCART connectors

-> The Stand should be rotatable. Especially if you have him stand in the corner and what would like to connect, this is a very uncomfortable.

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------

More minuses I could, unfortunately, rather fortunately, not notice until now. Those looking for a low-priced device that still offers all sorts of current frills who finds a solid entry-level device here. Who expected a little more like rotating pedestal, Ambilight or the like must of course invest a few more notes. But considering the price (less than EUR 500, -) I think that you get a very good overall package.
