Manual of product 42PFL6687H
Editorial note
The Philips 42PFL6687H television stands out with its 42-inch Full HD screen, offering exceptional image quality with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. This feature ensures an immersive viewing experience, ideal for enjoying your movies and series. Additionally, the 600 Hz PMR technology guarantees optimal display fluidity, especially during fast-paced scenes. With five HDMI ports and various connectivity options, this model allows for easy connection of multiple multimedia devices. However, there are some drawbacks to note. The lack of Smart TV features limits access to streaming services and online applications, which may be a drawback for modern users. Furthermore, the television does not support 3D technology, which may disappoint those seeking an even more immersive experience. The native refresh rate of 60 Hz can also lead to motion blur during fast content, which is not ideal for gaming enthusiasts. In terms of energy consumption, the Philips 42PFL6687H is distinguished by its low standby consumption of only 0.15 W, thus contributing to energy savings. Nevertheless, its annual consumption of 75 kWh may seem high compared to other newer and more efficient models. Finally, its functional design, compatible with the VESA 400 x 400 mm standard, facilitates wall installation, thereby optimizing space. Overall, the value for money is reasonable, but the limitations in features may prompt some buyers to explore other options.Score details
