Philips Aurea 42PFL9903

 The debut of the new LCD TVs Aurea Philips 42PFL9903 elicited conflicting views – from admiration to disgust, but no one could leave.

A difficult array of LEDs on the front panel to create a colorful glowing halo around the image at the same time as it was strange, and unique, making this product a necessary background for each element of self-respecting Teleman,as well as entrenching its position for an outstanding technological product.

 Moreover, the original design of the TV Philips is not just looks bizarre and fantastic. Effect «glowing panel» in fact, improve the already impressive image quality.

From our point of view of the Philips Aurea 42PFL9903 have only two problems: its relatively high price and the fact that he was a television equivalent of «Marmayt», where people pulled like moths to a flame of fire, or throw away, as if it was a TV – antichrist.

Fortunately, the second generation of televisions Aurea Philips has tried to solve both problems. Its price, at least, less than the price of its predecessor.New design developed for the Philips 42PFL9903 – really wonderful improvement in comparison with the original design of Aurea, that arouses people more positive than negative emotions.

First, the front LED panel TV look more smooth and relaxed through the use of a single mirror surface, which is evenly divided as to the front frame and the screen.Secondly, now the lcd TV has an advantage – an elegant translucent effect «linen cloths» around its edges, which is also present in other model series.

Moreover, Philips has muted effect of 1.5 cm «strip», which bypass the image directly in front of a glowing effect on the appearance of the panel.This inner border was too black for the first Aurea TV, and thus significantly differentiated image, and the alleged «lit» front panel. The new Aurea, the inner border nearly white, and therefore does not create such a sharp contrast.

Unbelievable aesthetic aura Aurea Mark II creates even more impressed when you turn the LCD TV.Although the new inner white edging create less discomfort when you turn, become instantly clear that the new effect «illuminated» cover much more complex than that of his predecessor, for two reasons.

We will return to the second reason, later, the first was that the new LED panel, it was more LEDs than the original Aurea – 150 instead of 128.This enables a new LED panel to radiate localized previously barely noticeable difference in color compared to the previous version of the TV. The most striking thing is how clear it was in tsvetorazdelenie «Light».

If the way to respond to the color images in the first LED panel TV Aurea was blinding, the new model, it became so clear, that looks rather superhuman.The process of determining the clarity of color LED panel fitted to color images on the screen and makes the effect of a glowing panel Aurea II a more natural and attractive.

Describing how infinitely precise and clear is the effect of a new illuminated panels, comes to mind an old saying «the picture may say a thousand words».In fact, if I had to outline here the exact location of every color and intensity of color move to reflect the panel to copy the normal television picture, I would have had to use a thousand words.

In addition, as a result of those words might have sounded rather dry and boring, and the effect of a glowing panel is far from the notions of dryness and skuchnosti.This way all I can say is look at the pictures in this review and try to imagine unimaginable shown effect so if it comes directly to you: constant change of color panels, reacting to a picture on your TV.And even better, try to see the work of Aurea II with his own eyes. But be careful, seeing at least once luminous frame in place, it is unlikely that you’ll have to live with those dull and boring television that you have today.

You may remember that I talked about the two reasons that the new technology is a glowing panel, which was used Aurea II is better than that used in the first Aurea.A second reason – is that new technological approach in TV Philips c Aurea II creates a much better array of color consistency matrix.

In other words, Philips has improved color reproduction LED panel to a level where it can produce shades of clearly relevant to the content of an image on your TV.This probably does not sound very impressive then, but believe me, in fact, this technology creates a stunning effect, allowing the panel to recreate as close as possible to match the image than the one that was the case with the first Aurea.

It should be added that the LCD TV 42PFL9903 has a light, as from the rear, and with the outside of the panel, which gives the possibility of combining immersive colored glow – dubbed «sensorialny halo» – to break the wall of your TV.This means that ideally you will be able to put a TV in front of a white wall or even hang it on a white wall so as to evaluate all possibilities.But if your house is not possible, then at least you can enjoy the outside of the illumination and front panel – this is something that has not been in standard TVs, Philips Ambilight, where colored light emanate only from the back of the TV.

Found that the LED panel / Multicolor spectral system Philips 42PFL9903 better than in previous models of Aurea, a pleasure to make sure that the new TV has an impressive set of other properties.For example, how to connect lcd television: four HDMI, DLNA-certified connector Ethernet, through which you can access MP3 files, slide show files with the extension.alb, JPEG, and MPEG1 / 2 on your PC and home network, plus a USB connector for playback of the same kinds of multimedia files from USB storage devices.

The new TV has a resolution of Philips 42PFL9903 Full HD, uses the Wide Colour Gamut (a wide range of colors), lighting system processor image Perfect Pixel Engine HD, which really allows you to create unimaginable Aurea television picture quality.

Philips TV has a high level of detail for the signals of both standard and high definition. Images obtained are very bright. Dynamic scenes are displayed beautifully thanks to 100Hz Natural Motion, color, and luxurious living.Plus, color saturation significantly enhanced due to the overall effect of multi-spectrum / glowing panel.

 This is not the only positive point, which brought a shining front panel of the image quality on your TV 42PFL9903D.Due to effects of the movement of light color on the perimeter of the front panel, which provides charuyuschee reinforce the impression of depth color black on your TV, which in turn makes the image more contrast than it would have been otherwise.

To some extent – it’s just an optical illusion. In fact, the level of black main panel 42PFL9903 only indirectly, is more profound. But in each there is a trick illusion!

When it comes to Perfect Pixel Engine, one should pay attention to what is realistic to spoil the image, if you are not careful with a lot of settings, the images in the TV menu.For example, if you leave the HD Natural Motion is too high, it can create a vibrating rumble, and even, accidentally, the effect of three balls instead of one, while watching sports programs.As a matter of fact, you should install a low level of HD Natural Motion for the majority of films and TV programs, and may disable it at all while watching sports programs.

Normal mode noise can make the image a bit muted, especially when viewing HD.But if you’ll have to look in the onscreen menu philips 42PFL9903 to try to solve potential problems more often than conventional TVs, it will still reward you excellent image and, in addition,will provide fascinating impression system LED panel.

 LCD TV 42PFL9903 sound really good, because of the amazing sound quality neiskazhayuschego range of speakers – and that you are not in small quantities at nayavnosti two subwoofers in the rear of the TV.

It is safe to say that some will shudder in horror of the whole concept of Aurea.
 But no one can deny the stunning quality of the audio-visual transmission lcd TV Philips 42PFL9903.Technology Aurea much diversity in the perception of the TV completely ordinary way, even if unique technology costs a lot of money.
