We were invited by Philips to test the new 21:9 Cinema LCD TV (58PFL9955D/78), the super television 3D de 58 inches produced by the company and for sale in Brazil. The big screen in cinema format, the image quality and the possibility to see 3D movies will be the main points that we will comment on in our review. See below:

Design and performance: 1bld

Right off the bat, the size of this TV is impressive. Its 21-inch (9:58) aspect ratio makes it stand out from any other large flat-screen TV. The idea is that movies can be viewed in the format in which they were created. Indeed, the new format will give a cinema look to your living room.

thanks to technology ambilight, its sides light up the room with colors based on the image you are viewing. According to the company, this technology reduces visual effort by 60% to 90%, making you watch TV in a relaxing way.

Also, the conversion of the various image formats shown by conventional channels, movies and cable TV also proved to be very efficient. In our tests, the analog signal from the broadcast TV was converted much better than most Wide TVs on the market.

3D technology: 6d5j

Watch 3D movies on this TV is, for lack of a better description: amazing. Although the process of installing and updating the system to work with this technology is silly and somewhat embarrassing for a TV of this size (see details in our chapter on updates), it can be said that this is the biggest reason to buy it. there. The images are beautiful and sharp in a way that would not be possible to perceive in 3D cinemas.

Os 3d glasses They are also very comfortable, with 3 types of nose pads and two batteries. They are included in the package of this TV.

In our tests, we watched the movie “The monster house“. The conclusion: makes you want to go out and buy/rent movies and more 3D movies, to see them on this super screen.

Velocity: 6r6b64

A big surprise when testing this TV was the good result in the speed of its images. Anyone who has tried some of the big TVs for sale out there, must have noticed that on some of them the image seems “slow”, which can ruin the mood of a good action movie. Fortunately, this is not the case with Cinema 21:9. with your 480Hz clear LCD, the images work as they should.

Internet and connections: 20342a

Keeping up with current times, this TV connects to the internet through a Network cable, or Wi-Fi connection (adapter included). With this connection, in addition to making use of a series of programs already included in the TV's operating system (YouTube, Internet radio, news, weather forecast, among others), you can search all the content of your computer through it, to view videos, music and photos (all through streaming, without the need to ).

Updates and Codecs: 5r16p

Here we have a weak point of the TV. It's ok that she has an update system through her Options menu. However, both to update the TV to its most current version and to install the files necessary to use the 3D technology, you will need the files through a computer, and install them on the TV through the USB input, once the update via Options menu does not detect files that need to be installed.

Photo file is also somewhat limited: It only recognizes JPG and ed videos are limited to AVI and MKV as long as they are encoded with H264/MPEG-4 AVC, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG- 4, or WMV9/VC1. For music, no OGG. Only WMA, Mp3 and ACC are ed.

Price and availability: 1n3l53

However, it is a state-of-the-art TV, with almost all the features you would expect from the category. She is sure to please her buyers.
