- owner
I bought this tv and i could not be more pleased with it, it work's great, & has the best picture i have ever seen, It's connected to fiber optic and the picture looks like it's real, I have one in my coach and it gets bounced around a lot and it plays as good as the one in the house, the way I look at it if high End motorcoaches install it in there units it got to be a great product.Hey they do have lemons out there.

- Lasted 16 months - then died
I wish I had done more research on Philips repairs before we bought our 50" plasma 16 months ago. Just Google "philips repairs" and get ready to read the horror stories. It's amazing a company can stay in business nowadays with such poor customer service and products. They look good, but don't count on them to last.

- 50PFP5332D board problems
This tv does in fact have high failure rate I know I purchased one
January 2 2008 and the tv would turn its self off after only minuets
of watching. Little trouble shooting with Philips shows that the unit had power board failure. Also when you would turn the tv off only the screen would sometime go out the power board would remain on with led lights on the board still Glowing. you can view the green led lights on the board by looking through the vent holes from the back.When the is turned off the lights should go off PER Philips. Sometime mine would sometime they would remain on after turning the unit off.
I returned the tv for replacement and the second tv did the same exact thing the TVs were MFG only one month apart. I wounder how many people have this same set that are not even aware of the power board not shouting off? If I had two sets with same problem you know there has to be many out there with same falure.
This tv looks great that is what sold me and the price and the name Philips. I got my refund and purchased a Samsung. after all this and dealing with Philips. When I see the name Philips I turn my head. Never again will I purchas a Philips brand again

- Horrible Customer Service
I purchased a plasma TV from Philips and started having problems with the television within a few months. Philips customer service was horrible to work with and it took three months for them to repair my television. Every time I called they told me that the part "was on it's way." They said that for three months. Whenever I called they wouldn't be specific. Not happy with their service. TV was defective. Didn't even last a year.

- Warning - High Defect rate for this TV
If you are considering buying this TV, know this: It has an exceptionally high defect rate when compared to other, similar Plasmas. Specifically, it has a major problem with board faults (i.e. the circuits that run the TV). This defect causes the TV to turn off on its own shortly after initial use. A bit of internet searching will confirm this fact.

I read a bit about this prior to purchasing, but because of the price, decided to roll the dice and buy it anyway. Now, i am left with a $1500 (at the time) TV that doesnt work, cant be repaired, and if its replaced, will possibly continue to break. Philips just wants to keep sending Tech guys out to fix it. Yet, every one that shows up says there's nothing they can do and that i need to exchange the TV. Problem is that with most big TVs, you can only exchange for the exact same item. It a sadistic loop of replacing one poorly engineered TV with the same thing.

So go ahead and take your chances...just dont say you werent warned
