Philips TV

My wife is nocturnal, sometimes our TV runs for days without being turned off. Had the TV 9 years with no problems. Great picture quality. Gave it to son when he moved out, (10 years ago). Still working fine.

AVOID PHILIPS. ANY DEVICE!!! First TV Philips Ambilight purchased in 2005 works great till today, 2nd one SMART TV purchased in 2010 works great till today. Then Chinese bought Philips and since then only name left and my problem started. Purchased Lumea in 2009 for my wife for 600 GBP, shaver Series 9000 I paid 360 GBP and vacuum beard trimmer I paid 149,99 GBP, and another Philips TV ambilight Android I paid 2200GBP and brought to the UK from Austria. Lumea stopped working after 3 months-battery was dead, shaver after 2 years-battery was dead, and beard trimmer lasted 1 year and 1 month-battery was dead.

I bought an 58 inch flatscreen Philips TV in 2014 and by the year 2016 the TV no longer worked. I didn’t start using it really until 2016. I had a repair person come and look at the TV. They told me that The Tv could not be repaired. It had no sound and no picture. He said that Phillips did not want me to fix the TV. They wanted me to buy another TV. He said that Philips does not make replacement parts for their TVs. The tv cost over $800. Now this is a complete waste of money for me who buys a tv and it only last 2 years. I will never ever buy another Philips TV. If this is how you make your products I will not be a returning customer.

I purchased a Philips 42 inch tv from Walmart in the summer of 2008. I know it is 11 years old, but was working fine until this morning when smoke came billowing out. Immediately unplugged and it stopped. Very dangerous and feel it could have caused a home fire. Just put it in the garage and don’t see any damage to exterior so obviously an internal electrical fire.

Through no fault of my own, the screen broke on my TV. When the tv is off, you can't see anything on the screen. However, when you turn the TV on, there is clearly something wrong. When I reached out to the company they told me it's my fault and I will have to repair it at my expense. The screen broke internally and somehow it's my fault and not covered in the warranty. I have had this TV for less than a year and up until today I have loved my tv. Now I can't even watch without having a distortion.

I have registered complaint of my TV which has 5 years warranty. They told me that panel and backlight is not available so you will get refund. Service centre executives are saying, "We are not getting any response from Philips,: and then I started sending mails directly on Philips' complaint mail ID. They are just asking documents, models and passing time on these silly questions. When I sent everything they stopped responding. The WORST BRAND, WORST SERVICE. All management is of same kind. They don't want to give service actually. Third class company for service and products both. Never Go For Philips in future and suggesting same to you also. Lifetime mistake that purchased Philips product. I don't want to even rate for my experience. Minus rating option should be there.

Worst Department, Worst Toll Free... Never Go For Philips in future and suggesting same to you also. Never go for this dump products. All management is of same kind. They don't want to give service actually. On mail ID also no one respond, SMS service is also very worst. Third class company for service and products both. Lifetime mistake that purchased Philips product.

I purchased this TV last summer around August, and had issues within the first week that I thought would work themselves out. When I first brought it out, it took a long time to upload for the WiFi, which I assumed was normal because I have 6 kids on my Wifi. 45 minutes later, it finally loaded and updated all the items for use. I automatically input my Vudu and Netflix accounts. The Netflix froze once and I had to unplug and plug the TV back in. Again, I shrugged it off as just slow Wifi. I had my kids all log off their devices, and had no issues. Streaming and updates were great. Until a week later.

So we bought this TV maybe a few days before Christmas. I should have known that it would suck when it immediately stopped working correctly the same week. Also all the apps they offer for some reason aren't available in this country or at least that is what a representative told me when I called. I'm talking basic apps like HBO, Starz, Facebook. It would randomly turn off or stop Youtube and Netflix videos then give a no signal message. Later anytime I wanted to use the smart component of this smart TV I would have to go through the process of connecting the network all over again every time.

Smart TV is really nice for viewing different programs, such as Netflix and Hulu. The display is incredibly sharp. It is easy to operate, ie, remote control. I have had it a little over a year and still no issues or problems.
