Good picture, easy to use, good value

It's a good value set so the sound could be better, and the screen could be bigger

Philips 37PFL5522D review

By Alex Jennings (cnet.co.uk)

Philips has notched up some notable successes of late at the premium end of the market. But we have to say that its trip 'downtown' with the 37PFL5522D hasn't been entirely successful, as the set fails to escape from LCD technology's traditional...

Exceptionally cheap price tag ; Includes a version of Philips' Pixel Plus HD picture processing

Suffers with motion blur ; Slightly cheap looks ; Muted colours ; Lack of connectivity options

Conclusion We had high hopes that enough of Philips' high-end grandeur would be able to filter down to this budget TV to make it something quite special. But in the end, Philips has had to cut a few corners too many to get the price so low, leaving the...

Philips 37PFL5522D

By (techradar.com)

The 37PFL5522D sports 'merely' an HD Ready native resolution rather than a full HD one

It--'s cheap ; Sharp HD pictures ; Good black levels

Colour tone issues ; Motion blur ; Has a tendency to exaggerate source noise

It's back to averageness with the Philips 37PFL5522D's audio, though, which features a very overcrowded mid-range that's over-run by a far-too-dominant, distorted bass element

Philips 37PFL5522D 37in LCD TV

By John Archer (trustedreviews.com)

LCD TVs seem to be getting cheaper and this 37 incher from Philips is no exception.

With our fair head on, we'd probably say that the 37PFL5522D is a perfectly respectable TV considering how little it costs. But it's a testament to the wonders Philips is achieving elsewhere in its current range, even with the only slightly higher spec...

Philips 37PFL5522

By John Archer (avreview.co.uk)

It's the least glamorous looker, for starters; nothing more than a featureless black rectangle, truth be told. And it's the least well connected, including just two HDMIs of the old v1.2 generation and no dedicated D-Sub PC port. This means you have to...

Remarkably cheap, HD pictures look crisp, good black level response

Colours can look washed out, motion blur, processing side effects, poor viewing angle, weak sound

Good all round performance compromised by poor motion handling capabilities ..

The Philips 32PFL5522D is a good all round budget performer, with excellent black level performance with outstanding HD and SD pictures for the price. If it wasn't for the poor motion handling capabilities, this screen would present a real bargain -...

Philips 20PFL5522D

By Vincent Lheur (digitalversus.com)

Limited to 640x480, this television clearly isn't destined for use with a PC. You will have to look towards other models whose definition will be at least HD Ready (1280x720) or even Full HD if you want a 32 inch diagonal. However, a word of caution:...

Nice colors

Weak contrast ; Limited connectivity ; No HD compatibility

The 20PFL5522D is much less interesting than other models in the PFL5522D series. Incompatibility with HD and its 4/3 format seriously hurts its future.
