in my experience, Philips LCD TV are pants! hehehe
yung previous Philips LCD TV ko (42pfl7422/98) eh ang pangit ng output even when playing blu-ray movies... images were noisy, mpeg artifacts were glaringly obvious, etc. sa animated movies lang matino... kala ko tuloy di ganon kaganda movies on blu-ray... tapos yung noise reduction feature bastos, nag-i-introduce ng intermittent vertical lines running from the top to the bottom of the display... naka-ilang replacement ako, lagi sinasabi ng service (singapore) wala sila nakikita when they tested the replaced sets at their end... yun pala mga sinungaling, kasi after 2mos of scratching their heads (and blaming me from time to time, source ko daw-eh pareho kayang ps3 and macs nangyayari yun minsan naman power daw sa place namin hehe) eh naisipan din nila tanong yung r&d nila (sa taiwan daw)... alam agad nung taga-taiwan (meaning known problem yun), sabi "ask customer to turn-off the noise reduction feature" hehehe...
ayon pinalitan ko ng panny plasma and now im in visual nirvana... blu-ray movies are gorgeously rendered, so natural, so lifelike, so clean and pristine, yummy! heck, even dvds are rendered wonderfully... sa philips, puro pixelated/blocky mga dvds, not so with the panny plasma...
kaya mga kapatid, kalimutan nyo na yang philips na yan (sinusumpa ko na sila hehe), kung kelangan talaga mag-lcd, mag-sony or samsung na lang hehe...
