First of all, this is my first HD LCD TV. I’ve done research for the last year trying to find the right TV for the right price.
After looking at Sony, Samsung, Sharp LCD’s and the Samsung LED DLP, I stumbled upon the Philips 2PFL7422D on the web. After doing some research on this TV I found that it had all the pro’s of the other big name brands but with out any of the con’s, such as banding(Sharp) or clouding(Sony)(Note, this information was gathered from other reviews, I had not seen either of these phenomenon’s my self).
I’m very happy with this TV. One thing I really like it the screen isn’t shiny like Samsung’s high end models I was also interested in. My TV is in a very bright location with lot of windows and a shiny screen was a really turn off even though the Samsung’s LCD’s review very well.
Some things to be aware of is the refresh is 60hMz (120hMz is the current high mark) and the HDMI is 1.0, not 1.3. Also the remote feels cheap but is easy to use.
I’m not a audio/video buff by any means, but I do understand the tech. I have a Xbox 360 and Wii hooked up, both through component cable, and they work great. I played Guitar hero 2 and didn’t notice any delay between picture and sound. I also connected it to Comcast Digital and the HD looks great. Watched football this weekend and didn’t notice any blur.
If your looking for high quality at a great value, check this TV out.

This is an excellent TV. Excellent picture quality. Sound is good, but with such a tv, surround sound is a must to maximize value.
The only problem is it weighs a bloody ton at 117 lb. By comparison samsung weighs only abt 65 lbs.

We bought this TV right before Christmas, 2007. It had a nice shiny, black look to it. The picture quality was awesome, but unfortunately the color kept fluctuating. The rich reds and flesh tones would fade to pale, pasty images a couple of times a minute. Phillips said the problem could not be the TV if the Menu screen did not fluctuate. The Menu screen displayed in only blues and greys and we never saw fluctuation in this screen.
In order to give the TV the benefit of the doubt, we switched from cable TV to DISH. We even replaced all the coax cable running from the satellite to the TV without success.
So we called Phillips again and were transferred to a Magnavox division who had a service company call us. This company told me to call an 800 number for another service company as they were 45 miles away in Fresno, California, and could not afford to come to my house based on what Phillips paid them for service. Apparently, the repair shops in Oakhurst where I live were not contracted with Phillips.
At this point we took the TV back to CostCo as it was within their 90 day return period. We bought a Sharp Aquos and the colors are fine.
Another problem we had with the Phillips was the limited viewing angle. We understand that LCD TV’s are supposed to have 176 degree viewing angle, but unless you were pretty much in front of the TV, the image and the colors degraded pretty badly.
My husband never did like the remote. When you picked it up and pointed it at the TV, it was always backwards.
Honestly, if the TV had worked right out of the box, we would have loved it. The picture quality and the colors (when they weren’t fluctating)seemed very natural. I liked the ease with which you could change from one format to another.

i bought this television about a month ago. i bought a refurbished from the manufacturer for a greatly reduced cost ($1,400) but that’s beside the point. the television is great for the cost even if you buy it new from Amazon — a nice price as well. the first thing i’d do is go to AVS forums and search for this television to get the various setting codes for the picture. that’ll save you a lot of time. next, get a surround sound system as the speakers on this television are barely adequate (i went with Onkyo and am happy). a universal remote is a must (Logitech Harmony is the way to go — again, i bought a 659 refurbished here on Amazon for about $40 — great remote).
i sit about 11 – 12 feet away and we play the Wii from about 8 feet. both seem just right. i watched the NCAA tourney in HD last week and the Master’s Golf tourney this week. i notice that the standard definition channels don’t look very good. in fact, i think my old television upstairs looks much better on standard definition. so i am only watching HD programming on this LCD. if i had to watch a lot of standard definition programming then i probably wouldn’t have bought this television and i might have given it 3 or 4 stars instead. on the other hand, the deal was too good to pass up and HD looks just terrific.

I have had this tv for about a month now and love it. It is a really good deal. I had to tinker about with the picture settings and found exactly the settings I wanted. This LCD does NOT have a glossy screen. That is GREAT for me because I have a window behind the television. Do yourself a favor and buy this.
The remote is a tad awkward, I suggest you get a Harmony Remote. I am also using an Onkyo system as my surround sound. Really sweet T.V.
