5.0 out of 5 stars Much better than I expected, November 1, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Philips 40PFL5706/F7 40-inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV with Wireless Net TV, Black (Electronics)
This is the first 1080p 120Hz LCD Tv that I bought. I had previously purchased an LG tv however it was 720p. This Tv is GREAT! I love the Net Tv as it has podcasts that you can watch as well as Netflix, Pandora, Facebook etc. Setup was a breeze. Downloading and updating the software was seamless. Yes, I am technical however non-technical people should be fine too :-)

Watching tv this way I am aware of the camera angles and I feel like I am right there experiencing everything with the actors. I purchased this tv for our Master bedroom and it is the perfect size. I did purchase a digital antenna so we could get the local channels for free and I also purchased a Roku. The only thing this tv is missing is a Web browser. That being said the picture quality is great and the Surround Sound is pretty good. We have speakers in the bedroom from our previous living room set and hubby is taking his sweet time in hooking it up since the sound from just the tv alone is... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars A great set, Awesome display, November 13, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Philips 40PFL5706/F7 40-inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV with Wireless Net TV, Black (Electronics)
I was at 1st reluctant to purchase this set, since I have always satisfied with Samsung products. But because of thesale at the time and its a 120hz system I jumped at it.

Upon arrival it was very easy to handle, one person can handle this set very easily. Easy setup, the remote is a little confusing, but after 10 minutes I was breezing right along.

The picture is awesome, I have Comcast hd and this set just pops with lively color, its truly remarkable.

The sound quality is great, but i have a Onkyo surround sound system makes the sound stand out. The 120hz video makes gaming, I have no words to describe.

I have not tried the other features, but am eager to try the internet feature. It has a built in WiFi or you can hardwire straight to it with an Ethernet connection.

Phillips has won me, even though I still like Samsung products, I will still look at Phillips before I make final decision.

2.0 out of 5 stars Better options for the money., December 12, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Philips 40PFL5706/F7 40-inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV with Wireless Net TV, Black (Electronics)
I had high hopes when I saw the features of this TV for the price. I bought this mainly for PC gaming, along with the Netflix web app on the TV. I ignored CNET's review of this TV and took a risk. CNET's review was pretty much spot on, wish I would have listened.

Good:
-Net TV app with built in WiFi
-120Hz

Bad:
-Terrible color reproduction
-Hardly any picture options. In PC mode, you only have brightness and contrast. Everything else I had to force through my video card options. In TV mode, the options are still very limited. The main set up is for dummies and consists of 4 pictures asking which you like better. From there, you don't have much control. The colors looked washed out and the black levels are horrendous once you reach a decent brightness.
-Blurry picture when connected to PC over HDMI. Even with correct overscan settings, pixel format, and TV set to PC Mode, the picture was terrible compared to a monitor. Everything looked... Read more
