Daikin Perfera
The Perfera is about as good as a single-room split gets, with an A+++ SEER/SCOP rating and a 19 dB(A) whisper mode. As an air-to-air heat pump it delivers strong low-cost heat down to well below freezing, making it a credible primary heat source for a room, not just a summer cooler. You pay a premium, but built-in Onecta Wi-Fi, the Flash Streamer purifier and occupancy sensing justify it.

The Artcool Mirror leads on looks with its reflective glass fascia and adds LG's UVnano UV-LED to keep the fan clean. Efficiency is only mid-table (A++ cooling, A+ heating) so as a heat pump it is competent rather than class-leading, but it heats and cools quietly with a 19 dB(A) sleep mode. Best chosen when design and smart features matter more than raw running costs.
