Hi What Hi-Fi

Thanks for your response in advance!

We've reviewed the 37in version of the '9603 - the Philips 37PFL9603 - in our current (September) issue, plus the 42in Aurea - the Philips 42PFL9900. Reviews should appear online anytime soon.Meanwhile we're reviewing the Philips 42PFL7603 for the following issue, out 21st August. We've also got a big meeting with Philips today, so should find out what we're due next!

Careful with these Phillips televisions, the old ones PFL9*32 models (these new models predecessors) suffered a multitude of problems, high frequency noise in standby,Line frequency probs and severe image lag, I know because I bought one and Phillips aren't exactly too helpful with aftercare either. Damn good picture with SD.The new ones though should have had everything fixed but apparently there is still a slight Lag issue, which means gaming is slightly tarnished.

Thanks for the info Clare, after your meeting with Philips did you gain any further information on when you may be having a

42PFL9703/9603 up for review.

Aslo could you let me know any opinion's you may have off these sets please.

Thanks in advance.

Still no news on the 42 models - but we have been promised the 47in Philips 47PFL9603.

Had a cracking preview at Philips of some of the new-season stuff, though - we'll bring you news as soon as embargoes allow!

They didn't mention a rumourd Led backlite 9803 did they?

By any chance!

There may have been mentions of LED backlighting....but then maybe not

Thanks Claire nough said!!

Can I ask weather you rate the new sets from philips, I have had my heart set on the new 42PFL9703, which is around £1600, but having seen the new Panasnic plasmas which the 42" versions can be had for around £1200 I'm finding it hard to justify the extra dosh.

Thanks.

Hi Claire

Any reviews about the Philips 42 PFL 7403 with pixel perfect HD 3 and ten bit panel? I can get one for a bargain after SONY let me down seriously with the 40" Z.

Thank you
