A Review Of The Philips 40PFL5605<br /><br />Anyone considering an entry level or second television, or even a third television set they should take into serious consideration the Philips 40PFL5605. The set comes complete with LED backlight, a 2.1 sound system and a 1920 by 1080 high definition panel.<br /><br />The television picture quality is superb, and without access to the Internet, the 40PFL5605 main qualities rests totally on that picture quality and definition. The display casing is not heavy, which makes the set ideal for wall mounting in cramped for space rooms.<br /><br />The thin television sets of today place the LED backlighting at the edge of the screen, always making for some blurring issues with the video display in thinner television models. The Philips 40PFL5605H does not have any picture blurring issues. Because the Philips 40PFL5605 is not as thin as competing brand name televisions, the lighter casing makes wall mounting easy.<br /><br />The casing display design is understated black, with elegant round corners. It is reminiscent of a poster frame with the Philips logo branding at the bottom, which is hardly noticeable to the superior quality video and sound one receives from the Philips 40PFL5605/12.<br /><br />Philips has developed an innovative technology they have dubbed as Pixel Plus HD.<br /><br />Pixel Plus is included in the Philips 40PFL5605H/12 build, and creates a sharper, more natural looking picture with an unsurpassed vividness not found in other similar television models. Pixel Plus technology also smoothes the transitions in the video.<br /><br />The 2.1 speaker system does a good job. What makes the sound system stand out is Philips Clear Sound technology which enhances the vocals. Clear Sound technology lets the viewer experience sound as if someone were right next to him or her, as opposed to across a table inside a noisy cafe.<br /><br />Although the 40PFL5605 cannot stream from the Internet directly, the set does include access to Freeview HD, two HDMI inputs, one SCART socket, an audio in, and a headphone jack connector.<br /><br />All of these connections face downward, which allows for again ease of wall mounting.<br /><br />A nice added feature is a third HDMI connection on the side of the 40PFL5605 as well as a USB connection. The TV can be hooked up to all kinds of devices, including a USB flash drive with stored slideshows, recorded video, or music. The 40PFL5605 menu system can easily access a flash drive.<br /><br />The Philips 40PFL5605 is a simple, bare bones TV. The TV has an incredible video quality level though, and game players will be happy with this model. The 40PFL5605 is not an expensive television set, making it a good choice for a second or third TV.
