Going by memory here, so I may have forgotten some details...(EDIT TO ADD: If you just plan to make lattes and don't care about learning about espresso extraction, then you can probably ignore most of the information below and just use the pressurized filter basket with pre-ground coffee. IIRC, this machine can also handle E.S.E. pods.)
Pros:
Heats up quickly
Good steam wand
More consistent results than the lower-end espresso machines with a boiler tank (e.g. Gaggia Classic Pro ).
Good steam. For comparison, a Gaggia Classic Pro (a ~$400 machine) runs out of steam quite quickly without modifications or learning a "temperature surfing" technique.
Cons:
Very high pressure. 19 bar is a LOT, so it requires a bit more precision when dialing in dose and grind size.
The cup warmer doesn't really get that warm. I assume it's because this machine uses a thermocoil, not a boiler.
Good luck finding a bottomless portafilter that fits properly. Some people say they have found 51mm portafilters to work, but every one that I've tried did not seal well, and would leak around the edges. I suspect it might actually need a 52mm. It has been a few years since I searched for one, so there may be some options out there now. If a bottomless portafilter is important to you, you may want to search for one first.
Ultimately, $129.99 is a really great deal for this entry-level machine.
By the way, here's one thing I wish I knew before buying: Espresso requires a really good coffee grinder... Like $80 might get a very entry-level manual (not electric) grinder capable of doing espresso. I ended up getting a 1Zpresso JX-Pro, which I was pretty happy with.
While some people enjoy drinking this straight, many people temper it with milk, like with a latte.
One way to achieve a similar strength of drip using espresso as a base is the Americano. This is straight espresso watered down with hot water.

How does it compare to Phillips machines?

Very tempting to try this since it seems my Delonghi has been acting up.
