Philips Essence 42-inch LCD TV

Philips is no stranger to the LCD TV market, and here we have the Essence, also known by its model number 42PES0001. This 42″ LCD TV comes with the following specifications :-

• 38mm thickness
• 66,000:1 contrast ratio
• 100Hz clear LCD technology
• 2ms refresh rate
• Three HDMI ports
• DLNA PC link connector

I still can’t get over the contrast ratio figure – most TVs have a number that’s rounded up to the nearest ten thousand, but this one stops right smack in the middle of the count.
