Reviewing: piece of sh**t

We received these just a year ago before our move from Chicago to Texas...on our trip the secondary monitor kept shutting off. We''d have to turn it of and turn in back on for the picture to be displayed on the monitor. Best Buy exchanged the product for us but now a year later and after a handful ...

Reviewing: Philips are complexed machines

The Philips DVDR-75 is a real complex machine if you have misplaced the instruction manual. No one seems to want to help you program it without you having to pay a fee of some kind. ...

Reviewing: Just what i needed

this unit is a little tricky to get used to but when you it really allows you to do anything you want, leave the freeview box plugged in and on the channel of your favourite programme, when you get in just rewind the six hours time slip and watch, easy no recording or getting times wrong to ...

Reviewing: Philips BDP7300

Bought this Philips DVD Player because of the 5.1 outputs. Picture quality on blu ray is superb, with no judder/jagged edges. Quality of upscaled SD DVDs is excellent. This player will upscale up to 1080p/24fps. On some SD DVDs on 1080p/24, there is some very slight judder, but when played at just ...

Reviewing: HDR3700 - Problems using menus.

Reviewing: Experiences with the HDR3700

Bought the unit from a major retailer, 8 days later the main power supply died completely. Took the unit back to C****, who would not exchange it until they had consulted Philips. It was replaced next day and I am now giving it a soak test to see if any problems occur. The first unit''s set up ...

Reviewing: Good things come in small (and cheap) packages.

My ol'' faithful Teac CDP3500 is now 15 years old and deciding it must be tired and outdated - though it sounds great - I''ve been listening to many modern CD players costing up to £1,000 that, frankly, don''t sound any better! Then an ex-workmate, now an electronics-saleman, suggested I test a ...

Reviewing: Time and date

I''ve had this machine for a year or so now and on the whole I think it is very good. You can''t, however, edit recordings on the hard drive which is an inconvenience. My main complaint is that it keeps on - and I mean keeps on - losing the time and date. This means that I frequently lose timer ...

Reviewing: Not what it''s cracked up to be...

Wanted a DVD recorder with built-in Freeview, saw this and thought, "Wow! Has upscaling, USB port for flash drive reading, looks stylish, and cheap too!". This all may be true, but what I didn''t know until I got it home and set it up was how irritating it is to use! The menu system is very ...

What a load of rubbish! Bought this in Jan 2004 as a VCR replacement, plugged in and setup. The output picture "rolled" on my TV screen. After calls to vendor & Philips, they agreed it was faulty (I''m an electronic design engineer with 30+ years experience, so I know when electronic goods are ...

Reviewing: Oh dear - a piece of junk

I bought this DVD player over several other brands thinking Philips wouldnt let me down. After 6 months the machine has totally packed up and wont play any discs whatsoever. This is pretty poor considering I have only used it about 125 times!...

Reviewing: Phillips DVP 3005

Having read around about this product, I get the feeling that I'm on my own in not being terribly impressed with it. But, I have found that the sound quality is not great; it is not terribly intuitive to operate; and in this day and age, designing products that you cannot actually turn off (rather ...

Reviewing: Philips DVD5960 DVD player review

Design The silver exterior of the DVD player is as fetching as a model wearing a sequenced dress. And it’s about as shallow too, measuring a low 37mm and 43.5 cm long. The front disc draw is set low down giving it a bit more stability. To the right is a large LED display that is ...

Reviewing: A good reliable machine

Admitedly at first the concept of this machine is strange but once you understand it it all makes sense. My main intention when buying this machine was to use it as a HDD recorder and in this role it excels. It has a modern design and I like the big blue and red lights ;-) I rarely burn to DVD but ...
