Product brief
Description: The Philips 50PFP5332D is a 50-inch, plasma television.Compared to other plasma TVs on the market, it is relatively inexpensive at around $1,225.In general, a liquid plasma display can recreate more realistic black-levels than an LCD display can.
Pros: Has a conventional 4:3, subtitle zoom, WideScreen, super zoom, zoom 16:9, and zoom 14:9 widescreen modes, which is considerably more favorable than some similarly priced TVs.In fact, the average cost of a product with a comparable set of widescreen modes is $2,255.This unit can display images that are sharper and more realistic than standard definition television when mated to a high definition signal.The 3:2 pulldown feature of this set reduces artifacts that can occur when motion pictures are transferred to a digital format such as DVD.
Cons: None noted, given available product data.
Suitability: Built for those who are looking for a stylish, compact TV.
Value: Given its relatively inexpensive price, this TV has great features for the money.
