"excellent" (5 out of 5 stars)
Taking the Supertest prize in May, Philips' 42PES0001 42" LCD TV is on the expensive side, but for anyone who wants the best of the current crop, the image and audio are peerless.

"excellent" (5 out of 5 stars) "Supertest Winner"
Quite simply the most attractive screen in this test, Philip's 42PES001 42" LCD TV also comes up with beautiful images from any source. The only drawback to this is the price and it also needs time to be set up for best advantage. Even if it's outside your budget, include it in your next audition of screens.

"Pros: Svelte looks. Simple to wall-mount. Separate media box. Impressive, convincing pictures from all sources. Cons: £1,800 is a lot of money for a TV in the current market."

"excellent" (5 out of 5 stars)
A design memorable in a field of identical screens, able to make the most of video from any source and a separate media box for all the connectivity and processing, altogether make Philips' 42PES0001 difficult to say no to.
