Philips PW9576- mistake?

I've recently ordered one of these, but when I checked the What TV review it gave it a bad write up for picture quality (esp thru' DVDs). I got a good deal price wise, but is it a duff model? I don't want to find I've spent shedloads of money on something that's worse than my old Toshiba.

Those reviewers get to sample one model, maybe they have higher standards. But if anyone else has any good/bad experiences then I'd be interested to hear.

Cheers.

Hi,

I have one of these. Best looking set on the market and a great price at the likes of qed-uk. I could find nothing comparable at the £1150 mark. However, I did have a couple of issues with mine on delivery - no problems, supplier agreed to swap it out for me, but I've had to wait a while for them to get new stock in. The replacement arrived this morning, and its undergone some internal revisions that make it absolutely fantastic. It now has Digital Natural Motion and a couple of other modes, and the picture quality is stunning - I've not seen better anywhere. Anyway, read all about it here...

New Philips 32PW9576 revisions

Make sure you get the new revision - its much better, and it was good before.

Good to hear, but I think mine is an old version because it was discounted. I doubt they'd do a deal on the new one. Will just have to see......

It's not a new model, just a revision to build. Mine was discounted - got it from QED-UK. Still available at a discounted price - the same price as the older revision.
