  • Abstract:  To say that I’ve been impressed by the majority of Philips’ latest TV range would be an understatement. With the exception of the uncomfortably positioned , I’ve loved everything the brand has thrown at me recently. So you’ll forgive me if I adm...

  • Looks great; picture quality is mesmerisingly good with standard- as well as high-definition material; sound quality is much better than that of most ultra-thin TVs; has more features than you'll ever use; allows full Internet access
  • Expensive; requires dedicated picture tweaking to keep getting the very best out of it
  • After immediately warming our cockles with its impressively slender design and eye-catching Ambilight system, the Philips 47PFL9664H/12 blew us away with one of the best all-round AV performances we've seen from any LCD TV to date ...

  • The Philips 9664H series is the little brother to Philips’ flagship model range 9704H and does not incorporate all of the same technologies. Still, I’m left with a feeling that 9664H delivers much better value-for-money when it comes to picture quality...

  • Abstract:  Philips’ 47PFL9664H is one of the top dogs of the Dutch manufacturer’s LCD TV range. Strip out the Cinema 21:9 and LED Pro models and it’s actually the most highly-specced TV it offers, boasting a plethora of picture enhancing tech...

  • Great detail levels, motion tracking and sound. Hefty build. Fine ergonomics and finish
  • Initial setup drags on a bit. Hit-and-miss DVD upscaling. Dark scenes could be more explicit
  • Definitely one for your shortlist, this enticing flatscreen is almost flawless ...

  • This is an immensely capable set, with nearreference quality pictures that are a cut or two above most of its immediate peers, The features list is also extremely impressive, from the classleading image engine through to the five HDMI inputs via one of t...
  • The narrowish viewing angle is a slight niggle and Ambilight might be seen by some as a piece of unnecessary, costnudging frivolity. Standarddef isn’t always to its rather refined taste, either.
  • A beautifully conceived and executed set for the serious (and better-heeled) AV fan.This review was written in conjunction with:What Video & Hi-Def TV magazineRelated Links TechRadar’s reviews guarantee More HD TV reviews Related posts:Review: Phili...
