The Philips 42PF9630A is a high definition television that uses the plasma technology and has a screen size of 42 inches when measured diagonally. The Pixel Plus 2 and Ambilight features too should attract plenty of attention to the set. The former does a fantastic job by smoothening out the images which makes any movement very fluid. The Ambilight feature has two LED’s, fixed at the back of the cabinet, which project lights on the background create an effect. The color of the lights may be chosen by the user or the set changes it to suit the image on screen.

The native display resolution offered by the set is 1024 by 768. The Philips 42PF9630A is very rich when it comes to the features. The features include the built in ATSC tuner and a CableCard which makes buying additional set top boxes quite unnecessary. The inclusion of two HDMI as well as two component video inputs should have plenty of users breathing a sigh of relief. Philips have gone with the trend or perhaps beyond it by providing 2 USB ports which allows you to listen to music or view slides directly from the USB device. The contrast ratios offered by this set are fantastic for an LCD which is mainly due to the deep black levels. The brightness of the set is reasonable although the viewing angles could have been better.
