Philips 50PFP5532D Reviews: 50" Screen Plasma HD Ready TV

+ This is a good looking, well specified product that does nothing badly and many things well. The particular strengths are:
Design and appearance
Connectivity
Value for money

+ its big, fairly easy to work on its own, mine came with the surround a sound which gives great sound, dvd player is no so good as it lacks same simple features but once you get use to it its ok. but for the money it great.

- the only thing is the screen can't be swiveled and base connection is silver when everything else is black.

+ This tv is brilliant. A friend from Holland bought the 42inch version and recommended it to me. I bought the 50 inch and its better than the previous model I had. There is nothing bad about it, from the moment I turned it on its been great. I honestly can't speak highly enough about it. I researched which tv to buy for 4 months and in the end I went with this and I'm happy I did. Defo recommend it to anyone.

- Absolutely none!

+ Excelent looking plasma, easy to use and very good value for money.

- Slight vibration on some sounds in preset sound modes.

+ good picture,easy remote control

+ excellent product, good sound quality and indeed value for money

- nil of note

+ easy to use and navigate, smart and great sound

- In footie matches the players seem to distort slightly if you sit too near which can be so frustrating if are one of those that can only see best from near distances.

+ nice style and good looking

- heavy tv and not full 1080hd and it doesnt knock off when no signal recieved as sky automaticaly shuts off in the early hours of the morning energy saving mode and my old tv would shut itself off if signal was lost for 10mins as i sometimes fall asleep whilst watching tv when i come home from work late at night and that was a handy option on an older tv but is not on this one

+ size and finishare of good quality

- set has no optical out this means i cannot listen to tv broadcasts in 5 in 1 surround sound .set also says computer linkabla but only if computer has hdmi output .you cant buy an ordinary computer to hdmi input lead

+ exellent tv, image great,sound unbelievable looks good on my wall.

- set up and remote control was confusing but only becuase i was not used to Philips tvs

+ lovely large screen at good price at time

- weight, not easy to move

+ This TV is our second plasma and is larger than our 1st.At first I felt it may be too big but I now feel its a great size for our room.The product has a built in preview and came with a surround sound.The picture can break up at times but on the whole I am very pleased and would certainly reccomend to any potential purchasers.

- None that I feel strongly enough to comment on.

+ Depth of colour is incredible. I have ours connected to a Denon Home Cinema Amp with both pre and post output amps also by Denon. This is great for wathcing Music Vids and getting the full stereo sound as you would from a dedicated hifi unit. Back to the Tv - I've had a few different brands in many countries but this is absolutely beautiful with BlueRay and is very good at upscaling normal DVD's too. (We use a PS3 as our BlueRay player). Although we never use them, there are great built in analogue and digital tuners too. I would buy plasma over LCD any day with this quality!

- Minor bad points - Be careful of the cables you use as some are too fat to allow others to connect to adjacent ports.
This is particularly annoying when using non-HDMI cables in my experience. Sound is not great - but then unless you have an enormous living room, and else the sound will played through your home-cinema amp or similar, you wont notice. Buy it!

+ great value for mony

- sound a bit weak,but a cinema surrond system would sort this out.

+ everything is good about the product, it has a glossy finish, and great value for money for a 50" TV, the price is uncompromisible for it features. too good to be true

- remote control is not impressive too much of plastic and looks like a toy.
