It's attractive and feature-packed, but there's only an analogue tuner on board - no digital one. We could understand it if the DVDR3577H was the token analogue model in an otherwise digital-ready range, but this isn't the case - none of Philips' latest HDD recorders comes with built-in Freeview, which only serves to highlight the superiority of recorders from the likes of Sony and Panasonic. This is a real shame as there's plenty to admire about the DVDR3577H, particularly the brilliant Time Shift Buffer feature and 1080p upscaling.
