Editorial note
The Philips 42PFL3008 television offers a quality visual experience thanks to its Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, ensuring sharp and detailed images for all your multimedia content. Its PMR (Perfect Motion Rate) technology of 100 Hz also contributes to optimal image fluidity, making fast scenes more enjoyable to watch. Additionally, with a reduced power consumption of only 95 W in normal use and 0.5 W in standby, this model proves to be an interesting energy-efficient choice. However, some drawbacks may deter certain users. The Philips 42PFL3008 is not a Smart TV, so its access to online streaming applications and services is limited. Furthermore, the absence of DVI ports and Ethernet/LAN connectivity could restrict connection options with modern devices. The sound power of 20 W may also not be sufficient for an immersive audio experience in large spaces. Overall, this television offers good value for money, although the limitations in connectivity and smart features may be points to consider. The classic and functional design, although a bit heavy to transport, remains an asset for those seeking a reliable and high-performing device for their living room.Score details
