Manuals of product 42PFL7696T
Editorial note
The Philips 42PFL7696T is a television that offers a satisfying visual experience thanks to its Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, ensuring pleasant image quality for movies and shows. Its brightness of 450 cd/m² allows for good visibility even in bright environments, and the fast response time of 2 ms, combined with the PMR technology of 600 Hz, ensures appreciable display fluidity, especially for action content or video games. Additionally, with four HDMI ports and two USB ports, this model offers versatile connectivity, making it easy to connect various multimedia devices. However, some drawbacks temper these positive points. The lack of Smart TV features limits access to streaming applications and the Internet, which can be disappointing for modern users. Furthermore, while the Full HD resolution is satisfactory, it may not meet the expectations of those seeking 4K image quality. The weight of the television, reaching 15800 g with the stand, also complicates its installation and transport. Finally, the Edge-LED backlighting mode may pose issues with brightness uniformity, particularly in dark scenes. In terms of writing score, the user experience is rated positively, with a score of 80, thanks to the teletext function and an intuitive interface. Performance is good, but the resolution limits expectations for some users. The design is functional, although the weight may be problematic. The value for money is fair, but the lack of Smart TV features and limitations in image quality may affect the overall perception of this product.Score details
