Product highlights

Ambilight

Ambilight makes an impressive contribution to
the overall viewing experience by producing
ambient light to complement the colors and
light intensity of the on-screen image. It adds a
new dimension to the viewing experience,
completely immersing you into the content
you are watching. It creates ambiance,
stimulates more relaxed viewing, and improves
perceived picture detail, contrast and color.
Ambilight automatically and independently
adapts its colors according to the changing
content on the screen.

Pixel Plus 3 HD

Pixel Plus 3 HD offers the unique combination
of ultimate sharpness, natural detail, vivid
colors and smooth natural motion on all
qualities of HD, standard TV signals and
multimedia content, for high definition displays.
Each pixel of the incoming picture is enhanced
to better match the surrounding pixels,
resulting in a more natural picture. Artifacts
and noise in all sources from multimedia to
standard TV and also in highly compressed HD
are detected and reduced ensuring that the
picture is clean and razor sharp.

Full HD LCD display 1920x1080p

The Full HD screen has the widescreen
resolution of 1920 x 1080p. This is the highest
resolution of HD sources for the best possible
picture quality. It is fully future proof as it
supports 1080p signals from all sources,

including the most recent like Blu-ray and
advanced HD game consoles. The signal
processing is extensively upgraded to support
this much higher signal quality and resolution.
It produces brilliant flicker-free progressive
scan pictures with superb brightness and
colors.

Perfect Natural Motion

Philips invented Perfect Natural Motion to
eliminate juddering effects that are visible with
movie based picture content. Perfect Natural
Motion estimates motion in the picture and
corrects juddering movements in both
broadcast and recorded movie material (such
as DVD and Blu-ray Disc). Perfect Natural
Motion results in even smoother and quieter
pictures with excellent sharpness. Perfect
Natural Motion removes judder from SD and
HD pictures, including 1080p movies and 24p
True Cinema, for a motion performance that
surpasses the cinema!

Dynamic contrast ratio 30000:1

You want the LCD flat display with the highest
contrast and most vibrant images. Philips
advanced video processing combined with
unique extreme dimming and backlight
boosting technology results in vibrant images.
Dynamic Contrast will increase the contrast
with excellent blacklevel and accurate
rendition of dark shades and colors. It gives a
bright, lifelike picture with high contrast and
vibrant colors.

Integrated Digital DVB-T tuner

The integrated DVB-T tuner lets you receive
Digital Terrestrial TV to watch or record. This
means you do not need an additional set top
box and also the additional cables.

4 HDMI inputs

HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB
connection from the source to the screen for
the ultimate picture quality. HDMI intelligently
communicates the highest output resolution
wi th the sour ce de vice. The HDMI i nput is fu lly
backward compatible with DVI sources and
includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy
protection. With 3 HDMI inputs on the back
and 1 HDMI on the side of the TV you can
connect multiple HD sources, for instance an
HD settop box, a Blu-ray player, and game
console or digital Camcorder. Your TV is fully
prepared for the HD future.

EasyLink

EasyLink uses the HDMI CEC industry
standard protocol to share functionality
between connected devices and the TV. With
EasyLink only one remote control is needed to
operate main functionalities on your TV and
connected devices. EasyLink uses the standard
HDMI cable to transfer system commands. It
works between all electronic devices equipped
with HDMI CEC.
