Good Points

Excellent looking with Ambilight on. That was the selling point for us. All plasma's now come close regarding picture quality, but this one stood out from the crowd. The full effect did not happen until we hung it on our own wall and WOW. Cannot wait until my HD dvd player comes.


Bad Points

Sound is not that great, but we use home cinema anyway. Not the coolest of looking plasma, but ambilight sorts that out. Their bracket is not the most sturdy.


General Comments

Picture quality is pretty excellent.
Sound - ok for normal tv.
Features - OH MY GOODNESS. So many to choose, spent many a night having a play with all the settings.
Never had a philips tv, so this is the first. To be honest it has been a great asset in our living room.
