Philips 9000 (47PFL9664H/12)

If ever there were a TV to warm the cockles, the 47-inch, 1080p 47PFL9664H/12 LCD TV is it. It's impressively slender and attractive, it's packed with more features than you'll ever use, and it delivers one of the best AV performances we've ever seen from an LCD TV

Philips 7000 (32PFL7404H/12)

The 32-inch, 1080p 32PFL7404H/12 LCD TV may lack some of the potency of Philips' expensive 9000-series sets, but it's easily one of the finest tellies in its class when you compare it to similarly priced models. Bargain hunters will be delighted by its great picture quality and cornucopia of features

Philips 9000 (37PFL9604H/12)

The 37-inch, 1080p 37PFL9604H/12 LCD TV more than makes up for its stupid name with its stunning pictures, huge feature set, glamorous design and surprisingly good audio. But it's not one for the technologically faint of heart -- you'll need to spend a fair amount of time in the menus to get the best out of this beast

Philips 32PFL9604H

The 32-inch, 1080p 32PFL9604H LCD TV is a striking set for a number of reasons. Firstly, it's beautifully built. Secondly, unlike most rival 'online' sets, it offers full and enjoyable Internet access. Finally, its picture and sound quality are truly fantastic. This glorious TV doesn't come cheap, though

Philips Essence 42PES0001D

The 42-inch, 1080p Essence 42PES0001D LCD TV is one of the best Philips sets we've seen. Design-wise, this amazingly thin TV is a marvel, and you'll be hard-pressed to find a set that's easier to hang on the wall. Most importantly, picture quality is spectacular, and audio quality, via the separate speaker bar, isn't bad either

Philips 42PFL9803

With its 42PFL9803 LCD, Philips further hones a first-generation technology. Instead of a panel illuminated from behind like in most LCDs, the 9803 uses an array of more than 1,000 LEDs behind the panel to illuminate the picture. The result is a breathtaking, crisp image that is enhanced by superb audio

Philips Cineos 42PFL7603D

The Philips Cineos 42PFL7603D is a lovely looking TV with superb HD performance and great sound at a sensible price -- the only real downside is the slightly ropey Freeview performance. This 42-inch 1080p LCD TV also has Ambilight, though not as advanced a system as the predecessing 9703

Philips Cineos 32PFL9603D

We love it when a TV manufacturer remembers that most people don't live in enormous mansions. It's great for us plebs who live in lowly flats and modest houses to have a TV with the latest technology and excellent picture quality. Philips' 9603 does just that, and tops it off with sleek styling and Ambilight

Philips 37PF9731D

Thanks to its glossy black finish, the Philips 37PF9731D is a fantastic-looking set and the build quality is up there with the best, too. It doesn't support a 1080p signal, which will disappoint those looking for a future-proof spec, but the picture quality and performance is nothing short of fantastic

Philips 42PF9831D

It's very expensive, but Philips' latest 42-inch LCD fully justifies the price tag with a wealth of innovations to improve picture quality and the overall viewing experience. Chief of these is the Ambilight back-lighting, which produces an appropriately coloured glow behind the set to make you feel even closer to the high-definition action

Philips 32PF9830

Philips' Ambilight technology produces a calming glow from the back of the TV, which looks cool and boosts the set's perceived contrast level. And while the 32PF9830 is expensive for its size, is includes plenty of premium features, including a motorised stand, and the picture quality is wonderful. All that's missing is a Freeview tuner
