Elizabeth, Hampshire Multi-purpose viewer

Score 4.0/10
Good points:
Good picture
Bad points:
Sound unpredictable on different channels - not consistent
Cannot tune all freeview channels - ITV, Channel 4, 5 and ITV2 and others missing - so inadequate tuner on this set
Phillips set that we have has no problem at all - so definitely not the aerial.

Ian , Christchurch Film and documentary lover

Score 9.0/10
Good points:
It is very compact, with built in DVD player and freeview, so there are not miles of cables everywhere, and it is very easy to set up.
Bad points:
Would have preferred an oval base rather than rectangular, as that would be a little more stylish.

  2. I am thinking of getting this tv for my teenager son's room but he wanted Sky as well, but I really grudge paying the price for an extra sky box in the house. I was thinking of freeview, but I dont know much about the channels - what are the main channels on freeview with this tv, or where could I find out what channels are included? thanks in advance
    Caroline asked on
    1. Excellant TV and DVD combine which HD. This TV is ideal for the Sky box with more channels than freeview which this tv has already built in. If you don't want to pay a subscription for Sky go for Freesat, you will still need a Dish like Sky.
