Editorial note

The Philips 23PF8946 is a television that offers exceptional image quality thanks to its LCD WXGA technology and a resolution of 1280 x 768 pixels, providing an immersive viewing experience. Its 10 W stereo audio system, with two built-in speakers, enhances the multimedia experience, although some users may find it insufficient for more demanding audio needs. The varied connectivity, including multiple input/output ports, makes it easy to connect various devices. The modern design in silver color, combined with VESA 100 x 100 mm compatibility, allows for easy and aesthetic installation. Additionally, the sleep timer feature contributes to energy savings, which is a valuable advantage for the device's energy management. However, the resolution, while adequate, may seem insufficient for HD or 4K content, and the 21 ms response time could disappoint gaming enthusiasts due to motion blur during fast sequences. Weighing 10.2 kg makes transport and installation a bit challenging, especially for a single person. Finally, the 23-inch screen size may not be suitable for large rooms, limiting its use in certain environments. In summary, the Philips 23PF8946 represents a good choice for general use, but its performance and screen size limitations should be considered when purchasing.
