Manuals of product 42PFL6198K
Editorial note
The Philips 42PFL6198K television stands out with its 42-inch Full HD screen that offers exceptional image quality with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. Thanks to the Perfect Motion Rate (PMR) technology of 700 Hz, the display fluidity is remarkable, especially during fast action scenes. Additionally, it features multiple connectivity options, including 4 HDMI ports and 3 USB ports, making it easy to connect various multimedia devices. Its energy consumption is also commendable, with very low values in standby and off mode, contributing to appreciable energy savings. However, the Philips 42PFL6198K has some drawbacks. The lack of Smart TV features limits access to streaming services and online applications, which can be a drawback for modern users. Furthermore, the absence of DVI and DVI-D ports may restrict connectivity with some recent devices. The Full HD resolution, while satisfactory, may seem insufficient given the current 4K standards, especially for a large screen. Finally, with a weight of 12.5 kg, transporting and installing the device can prove to be challenging. In summary, this television offers a quality visual experience with solid performance, but it could benefit from improvements in connectivity and modern features to meet the expectations of today's users.Score details
