| The Bottom Line | Although it has its share of picture-quality problems, the Eco-friendliness of Philips' 42PFL5603D flat-panel LCD will win the day for consumption-conscious shoppers. | Although its picture quality can't quite live up to the high price, the Samsung UNB7000 series is a technological and design tour de force. | Although its black-level performance hampers its picture quality against similarly priced flat-panel LCDs, the Philips 42PFL7432D has its share of strong points. | The Philips PFL6704D series falls short of the competition's performance, but it does have a cool design and relatively accurate color. | CNET did not review the Philips 47PFL5603D, but we did review a smaller model in the series. |
