Manual of product 42PFL4317K
Editorial note
The Philips 42PFL4317K television stands out for its Full HD display quality (1920 x 1080 pixels), providing an optimal viewing experience for watching movies, series, and video games. Its Wi-Fi compatibility allows for convenient wireless connection with various multimedia devices, while its four HDMI ports and three USB ports offer appreciated flexibility for connecting multiple equipment. Additionally, its energy consumption of 60 kWh per year, coupled with an energy efficiency class of A+, makes it an economically responsible choice. Its modern design, combined with the possibility of VESA mounting, facilitates its integration into different environments. However, this model has some drawbacks. The lack of Smart TV features limits access to streaming applications and the Internet, which may frustrate some users. Furthermore, the television does not support 3D technology, which may disappoint those seeking an immersive experience. With a native refresh rate of 60 Hz, video game enthusiasts might find this insufficient for optimal display fluidity. Finally, the audio power of 20 W, without a built-in subwoofer, may not meet the expectations of users demanding in terms of sound. In summary, the Philips 42PFL4317K is a television offering a good visual experience and versatile connectivity, but it may not meet the needs of those looking for advanced features and superior audio quality.Score details
