Philips 42PF9831D is a 42-inch LCD HDTV that offers 1366 x 7688 native resolution. It features a built-in TV tuner, two HDMI ports, a 5 in 1 memory card reader and “Ambilight Full Surround” technology for immersive viewing.

PCMag reviews Philips 42PF9831D and writes, “The Flat HDTV was also a strong performer when it came to displaying video containing fast motion. Unfortunately, its below-average performance detracted from the viewing experience. Videophiles will also scoff at any display that fails to provide discrete picture controls for each input, or a TV that restricts grayscale to what the manufacturer thinks it should be.”

Pros of Philips 42PF9831D: Audio and image file support. Surround lighting system. Minimal image smearing with video containing fast motion.

Cons of Philips 42PF9831D: No backlight control. Weak video-noise reduction. Banding (posterization) noted in fine gradients. Video inputs lack discrete picture settings.
