Philips 30PF9946 30" WideScreen HDTV-Ready LCD Flat-Panel TV description
Philips' 30-inch widescreen, high-definition-ready 30PF9946 offers a stunning blend of style, convenience, and quality. Its high brightness (450 cd/m3) and high contrast (400:1) ensure vivid, detailed images from any source, while integrated TV and FM radio tuners offer cable or broadcast reception of all your favorite programs. Hook the 30PF9946 up to an optional DTV receiver or progressive-scan DVD player and you'll enjoy vivid, detailed images from 1080i, 720p, and 480p sources, which render at up to 720p resolution on the set's native 1,024 x 768-pixel screen.

LCD technology allows screens to be thinner and televisions to be lighter and more energy-efficient than ever before. The result is television that not only fits on a wall, but fits in places conventional televisions cannot. The 30PF9946's comes outfitted with Digital Crystal Clear technology, a suite of picture innovations including Dynamic Contrast, a comb filter, and advanced, 10-bit processing.

A feature called Active Control Plus continually adjusts picture settings at over 60 times per second for all inputs, correcting both sharpness and noise reduction, even adjusting for changes in ambient viewing light.

Audio/video inputs include a direct-digital DVI input and a VGA computer input. Onboard Dolby Virtual Surround simulates enveloping surround sound from any 2 speakers.

What's in the Box
TV, stand, wall mount, remote control, remote batteries, and a user's manual.

♥♥♥♥♥ Not so Good, Not so Bad
I bought this TV in philips outlet for 750$. Used it for less than month now.

Pros
----
1. Cheap, inexpensive, TV for bedrooms or kitchen.
2. Picture quality seemed ok with HD , so far.
3. Look and Feel of the TV is good.

Cons
----
1. Only one HD-Analog connection (Component to VGA)
* Beware of this, though the TV has component input, its not HD Capable unlike all other TVs. Philips gave a special Component to VGA cord, which can be used for regular dvd player progressive scan(480p).
2. Only one HD-Digital connection (HDMI)
3. Though the TV says 16:9, I can only see 15:9 in wide screen format.
4. Black levels are not as dark, it may be scenario with all LCD TVs. Plasmas has dark black levels.
5. Poor and long waiting on customer service. I think philips should consider outsourcing customer service, instead of torturing customers with long waits.
6. Very badly packaged, so open the package cautiously.
7. Wall mountable is included, but it is not tiltable.
8. Very very annoyingly poorly written manual, dont expect anything from it.
